Decisions made!

[Roobear77]

Well, we have decided to go ahead and book for Jan 18-24, staying hopefully at ASMo.

We live outside of Toronto, so we are likely going to fly out of Buffalo. Have found a flights for $250-288 pp, anyone have any experience finding anything cheaper?

I am very excited! Will be keeping my eyes open for any Disney discounts to apply, and have already started my spreadsheet for ADRs and FP+.

As far as the 180 days out for ADRs and 60 day for FP+, do these open up at midnight or in the morning?

Thank you in advance for your help!

You'll be traveling on the weekends which are traditionally higher in the U.S. than Tuesdays or Wednesdays. Also, January 19, 2015 is Martin Luther King day which is a holiday long weekend for many in the U.S. Flights may be a little higher then as a result. Southwest opens up their flights for your time period on July 21, 2014 so if you're waiting for that airline, make sure you book first thing at 6:00 a.m. on July 21st for your flights. Prices now continue to rise as the planes fill up and rarely come down. JetBlue should be allowing for reservations during your time frame very soon based on past experience (it was June 2 last year). I'm not familiar with any other airline that provides non-stop service from BUF to MCO so the prices you've mentioned must be stop overs and I assume they're return pricing. At $125 each way ($250 total) on the weekend, it's not a bad price. Southwest has stop over flights on the weekends at $109 each way right now but no idea if the holiday weekend will be at that price when the reservation window opens.

ADR's open up at 6:00 a.m. online and 7:00 a.m. over the phone. They occassionaly have delays online such as an inability to book for additional days in your trip other than the first day (this happened to me).

I'm not sure about FastPass+...but I'll find out before mine open up in a few weeks from now.

I can confirm that those prices are obtainable as long as you purchase them the day they are released. After that the prices will just go up. Best bet is JetBlue (cost of 1st checked bag is included on flight cost). If you have an iPhone I recommend you get their app so you can check on a daily basis. Also follow them on twitter to get updates of the released times for your period of flights. Best of luck!!

I believe fp opens at midnight…hence why I am up

So what was the verdict? Midnight or 6:00 a.m.?

Fastpass+ opens at midnight, dining at 6am
