Yet another Rochesterian here. We booked our flight on Airtran back on March 9th, and got 3 tickets for roundtrip ROC to MCO for $594.30. We are going August 13th thru August 28th, and we picked our seats already. I know that is a good price , but if I see it drop any lower I will still call for a credit. I have heard that you can use the credit for baggage fees . Have either of you ever done this at the Rochester airport before?

No, and honestly, I didn't even know you could call and get any sort of credit if the price of your flights dropped!! Thanks for the tip!!
I've already told DW and the kids that they'd better plan on packing LIGHT! One decent size carry-on and a backpack each. If I absolutely have to, I'll do a single checked bag for the excess. Plus, if we do end up with a checked bag, we'll bring the twin size aerobed so the girls don't have to sleep in the same bed. It's funny, though. I never complain about the small beds at Disney, but DW does....am I missing something?????
Yay for Rochester!!We're from Rochester too!!! (Hilton to be exact!) We're headed down from Aug 20 - 29th. We are also booked on Airtran - I booked us at $89 a way (direct flights - necessary with a 7 and 2 year old!) Last time I looked they had flights on those date for $76 for certain flights. Good luck!
I was just at the airport today - took the kids to watch the planes take off and land in the observatory. It made me want to fly away on vacation NOW. It seems like all of you are going in August...I'm looking at end of September into October probably.
For whatever reason, the last time we flew down, in January 09, we flew on Continental and were never charged for our bags. We were told they'd charge us when we arrived, but never did. Granted it was because we had to check them at the gate because we arrived at the airport so late they couldn't take them at the counter.
