Ok, so now it's real...I have booked my flights...SWA just opened their August schedule and I got 119 each way from Providence. Sure I have flown for less, but still given the price of fuel, I didn't wait a day!

Last weekend, I found $78 each way from Philadelphia on Airtran. Even with the luggage fee round-trip, it's still a good $20 - 40 less than I've seen in a long time so I jumped on it for the same reason you did. Just another step closer to actual trip day

Well I checked my flights and found they are already up to $169 Glad I got it when I did!

I think I bought mine back in september, I usually wait for SW but I found Delta for 202 total per person from Logan, so I grabbed it, I am a good carry on packer anyway, so I am not worried about the bag fees. Besides Sara's clothes are still so small, I can get her week in a gallon size bag!

Sounds like some great fares.

I need to purchase air for the 9 of us!
3 cabins 5 kids and 1 MIl.
All with Verandahs...


so i am keeping a close eye on it!

Have found that sometimes, if you put in 4 instead of nine a lower rate will appear.
only 4 seats left at this rate.
take the 4 seats then I will ask them to honor it for all seats!
LOL


Still need to purchase Air for the May Alaska cruise.

working on that now!.
should have taken care round end of month.

I have also noticed that Jet Blue has been having some great rates just about 2 weeks out.

My January 25th trip this year, was booked on Airtran, we had a 6 pm flight.
They moved to 3pm gave me the option of canceling, and i did after looking on jetblue.

They had a 6 AM flight that worked for us picking up an extra whole day in Florida.
for $79.00

Hi we are in Wakefield Ma.

 

[wayneg]

OK thats enough of the pocket money airfares, I am too jealous

Costing us 3 a total of $4,224 better than last year though at $6,116.
Why wasn't Walt born in the UK, would have saved us a fortune.

Hi we are in Wakefield Ma.

We live on the south shore, Just north of Plymouth!

How great you are doing the Alaska cruise too! Enjoy that is going to be one of our next adventures!

Can I say that I am with you on this issue! We are paying around $3000 to go now and a bit more than $4000 in the summer!

I almost added up including, resorts, tickets & cruise but stopped at the airfare, too scarey these days. Got quite a good deal for flights this month, paid $720pp but August has gone crazy.

Tell me about it! I did add up what we spend for our summer vacation and I couldn't believe my eyes!
Airfare from Europe (Lufthansa is the only one going out of our city and I bought my tickets way back when. They have constantly gone up in the meantime), 17 nights at Old Key West and 3 cruises! Boy, I can tell you - that mouse has its hand in my pocket BIG time!

 

[Hygiene99]

Was almost tempted to purchase air just now!

9 people came to about 1900 non stop.

Just did not like the return time, getting the kids up for 8 am flight, when you know your on ME is hard!
5 am pick up. that is not how i want to end the trip!
airtran.

jetblue still has crazy prices.
they will come down.
I would rather use them.
but will use either one.

Still working on get air for our return from the Alaska cruise in the middle of May. waiting for that right deal to come along!
I know how much it is, Now.

Hygiene99 not sure where you are in MA but I just booked my husbands flight out of Worcester on directair for $89.00 each way.

Hi everyone!!! I am trying to get the FE's all organized, my mom is coming up in a couple weeks to start seeing what we have accumulated together. Our plan WHICH BY NO MEANS has to be your FE plan, is to give individual gifts, so i went through those who are on the list already~~ and not to embarass ourselves I have a few questions for clarifying if its a male or female...not in any way meaning to offend anyone, i just dont want to give a male-ish gift to a female and vice versa~~
so heres my questions:

daipp: is Alex a girl or a boy and Bethen a girl or boy?
Sonnyeclipse: Is Colin a male or female?
Shelbecat: Sherry male or female? Bev male or female? Casey is female correct? (i think i remember talking about her since we will be neighbors)



I think thats it, AGAIN PLEASE PLEASE dont be offended i in no way mean to offend anyone, I just want to be gender specific, for the sake of the receiving end~`my mom is soooo excited about this trip shes goin crazy with gift ideas, so we are trying to stay ahead with a head count!!g

anyone else want to join the FE PLEASE DO!!! this does not have to be a expensive adventure by any means, even a handwritten note saying HEY will be exciting to get from the Fish!! Thanks WAYNE for keeping everything organized!!! CANT WAIT to see you all !! Its going to be a blast!!

Has anyone here been on the dream yet? August will be our first and my mom (64 yr old eeyore freak haha) first time on DCL...shes just a tad bit excited!!!

Its getting closer and today being 76 degrees in VA, im smelling the ocean now!!!

Happy Day my friends!!
