Airfare... pulled the trigger! :)

[minnie56]

Jetblue emailed a 'mystery offer' yesterday...did you get one? Perhaps that might make a difference for you!

It has to be booked by midnight tonite I think..DH got $75 off any trip-I got $75-DD got $200! Nice... Some folks are getting $500!

Anyone looking for YYZ to MCO for Dec? I've been looking at fares, but not sure how far in advaced to book. Looked at leaving from BUF, but the prices were higher....

I just don't know if I should book now, or wait to see if fares come down....what do you guys think? YYZ to MCO return direct on AC is $1346 for the three of us, plus an additional $150 for 3 pieces of checked luggage. Westjet is more expensive, JetBlue out of Buffalo is more expensive....

Love to know what your opinions are....

 

[two*little*birds]

Woot woot, AirTran came down in price so I pulled the trigger!

For the 4 of us it came to $998.40 - so I'm pretty happy with that.

I would wait until you get closer for Buffalo. Unless you are going directly at holiday time. What are your dates?

That's $500 rt per person which is crazy. I would check fares from Buffalo, Rochester, Niagara Falls and Detroit.

Pigletto, my dates are Nov. 30, 2012 to Dec. 8, 2012.

Webworm, I'm checking, but no luck yet. It's a pain, but I wanted a direct flight, and JetBlue out of BUF is more expensive than AC out of YYZ (at least it was last week). I'll be keeping an eye out for AirTran (they don't have Dec dates yet).

 

[GrUvGrL]

I usually fly AirTran, but do your self a favor, pay the exta 15 bucks to guarantee your seats. AirTran WILL overbook and the ones with paid seating get to fly... I know you are going in October and should be ok... but at least keep checking in to see if the flight is filling up.


Have fun!

 

[Piglet2007]

I can't believe it! The flights I was looking at for AC went up from ~$1350 for the three of us to ~$1670. This happened overnight, and now most of the seats are sold, where they were less than 50% sold last night....any guesses as to what happened?

I'm going to keep checking on flights out of BUF and also any charter flights out of YYZ.

 

[monkey30]

there was a big seat sale for mon tues and wednesday, maybe check westjet I know they were having some great deals as well.

We are going in August and was able to book from Rochester for $730 which is about $250 pp return (not including luggage). We are going down with Air Tran (in the early am) and back with United (in the pm). Granted these are not non-stop but we are okay with that for the price. I used cheapair.com for months until the "deal" finally showed up. **remember to look at Southwest by itself as it does not show up on other websites when comparing.

I have been reading about the fluctuating airfares and have found that the best deals usually occur between 90 and 120 days from your departure date (don't know if that is true but it has worked for us).

I will send some pixie dust your way -- Good luck in getting a deal!

If you want nonstop flights with JetBlue for those dates I see fares from Buffalo for $340 rt or $1020 inc taxes for 3 tickets. Delta also have flights with 1 stop for $240 rt + baggage fees if checking bags.

I used bing price predictor (tells you when to buy and when to hold off). I got a flght from Seattle to MCE of $1700 return, taxes all in for family of 5.

Allegiant has opened up fares from Niagara Falls and flying into Orlando/Sanford total is $206.60. Add $25 each way for a prepaid checked bag or $15 each way for a carry on bag.

Yay! Just booked for my trip with AirTran ~ $1000 for 3 people roundtrip from BUF to MCO. This includes taxes, assigned seats, and for the schedule we wanted. So happy!

Way to go! You got a great rate!

Now the fun part can begin in earnest........the planning!!!

 

[archdandy]

We just bought our airfare the other night! We paid $599 round trip for two people from YYZ to MCO. It's the flight times we wanted as well, 6:30am! I'm really pleased with the price and best of all we don't have to travel to Buffalo. If anyone is going to WDW in October check the prices on Sunwing.ca. They have really great deals.

 

[Piglet2007]

Yeah, I waited and waited for Sunwing to post their end of Nov/Dec prices, but nada yet...I just couldn't stand waiting any longer!

And I meant to say ~$750 for three people, not $1000!

That's a great deal! We seriously considered flying from Buffalo but the hassle of driving and getting across the border for such an early flight would have been too much.

 

[mugglebe]

I bought two tickets from Air Tran!

I leave from Buffalo on Nov 5 at 07:55 and I leave Orlando Nov 12 at 17:50 and it came to $583 American. That also includes the seat selection price.

So, I guess the answer to the OP's question is Air Tran!
