Airfare for DEC 2009

[Montana Minnies]

MontanaMinnies,

Sometimes (depending on the airline) you can use a codeshare flight on a partner airline. For example, if you were originally scheduled on a Delta flight and they did the schedule change. You may be able to use a flight that is operated by Northwest but has a dual flight number that belongs to Delta. This is where the major carriers have an advantage over the discount carriers.

Also, I can't remember when you said you were going but there will probably be more schedule changes. Usually this time of year the change monthly. Perhaps they will add something back. In the end all that matters is you get to Disney....right?

I just checked the airline website again and our flight was back on their list. Not sure why it wasn't showing on their website yesterday, just glad it is back on.

I made an awful mistake and booked airtran on orbitz when I realized I forgot about coupons! Oh Noez!! So I called Orbitz right away and they were very nice; let me cancel it. Then I called my credit card company to make sure -- they were also very nice and said it didn't come thru yet but put a note on the transaction that it's going to be cancelled.

FINALLY I booked on airtran via kayak for dec 12-20 PHL-MCO. With the $25 vouchers it works out to just $154 per person round trip. Woo hoo!!!

And it let me pick seats no charge awesome!

Now I just have to convince my family that we are packing light and not checking in more than 3 bags. LOL.
