Flights home to PHL on 3/11

[drise]

We booked our cruise last year for 7day 3/4-3/11. I'm just now getting around to booking flights, I've looked but had a trip to WDW 12/4-12/9 and was planning that. Anyway, there are no reasonable prices flying MCO to PHL on 3/11. Any ideas for airlines that fly out of Sanford, Melbourne or Daytona Beach to Philly?

PAID 931. FOR 2 ROUND TRIPS PHL TO MCO. Pretty outrageous as far as I'm concerned. Last year it was 179.00 for a round trip.

I'm in bucks cty too! Have you considered flying MCO to Atlantic City?? Spirit is having a decent sale right now. You could probably get a much better price.

The only other option is flying into Newark, but I prefer AC. It's a hike, but at least it's an easy ride. We're actually staying at the Borgata the night before/after our flight to make things easier.

It's because it is spring break. I am going in April from DC and the price was more than triple other times of the year. I looked into connecting flights rather than direct which while it was much cheaper, it really sucks the fun out of a 2 hour direct flight. I was persistant in checking all the online travel sites and got lucky one night on expedia where the direct flight was ONLY twice what it normally is. So I bit the bullet and paid 1300.00 for 3 of us when I was expecting to pay 660.00.

Good luck, I even checked into the train

Can you go the night before? A quick search on Continental showed more reasonable rates, as did flights from Baltimore (yes, I know its not all that close, but we have always found it cheaper when returning to see family).

Good luck!
