FYI Boston People, Song...

[CamColt]

...Is now booking BOS-MCO flights.

I know when Song first came up there were a few of us waiting for these flights to become available. They now are and I just booked! However, I would say the prices are going up FAST! From when I first saw it until I booked(about 2 hours later) the price of our return flight went up 20.00/person!
Check it out if you are interested.

What luck I had. I cancelled our Delta Express flights on Friday (2 days ago) for our trip next week. I rebooked the entire trip for July 31 on Delta Express. WELL, I called today to check our seat assignments again and don't you know they switched our flights to SONG!!! and the best part is is I went online and those same flights have gone up 144.00 more per person! I'm so glad I called on Friday, I just can't believe my luck. Flying on a brand new plane and saved all that money for the five of us!!!

Sat. nite 4/12: Just saw that the four 757 flights between BOS and MCO each way were changed to Song. Checked a flight for a peak date (Sunday after Thanksgiving to BOS) and saw that the fare was about the same as the Delta Express fare two days before, about $225. one way. Not sure whether a small new batch of cheap seats for that flight had already been snapped up, had not been offered yet, or will never exist.

I can't believe it - the flights I booked yesterday have already gone up $93! Wow!

A few days ago we were ready to change our vacation plans from our current Feb'04 to Nov or Jan instead© I'm glad we didn't©
Not sure I could deal with traveling during Feb© vacation too often though - much too stressful© :¤

 

[CamColt]

Wow! I checked our flights again, and in less than 24 hours they have gone up 175.00/person!

the song rates are terrible, i just booked on southwest out of providence and got a much better deal. it was 975.00 for 5 of us flying jul 27 and returning aug 8. delta (now song) was over 220.00 per person and it had been 205.00 consistently for weeks. delta's loss and my gain with going southwest...

 

[WebmasterAlex]

I just booked Song for december, 615 for 3 of us including taxes and everything, $205.00 per person round trip... I think that's really cheap.
When I looked at the airplane seating chart we are then ONLY people on the plane both ways!! I am sure that will change.

Alex, as you can see I'm from Plymouth also. Booked 3 of us on Song on Sat night for the same $205 for Dec. Went back out of curiousity on Sun morning and the flights went up 75.00. Where in Plymouth?

 

[auntiesharon]

i really don't like the way the song site is setup - having the price by leg is confusing. the delta rates have not been down since before christmas - i paid 186.00 per person in december (booked in october)

 

[beattyfamily]

Prices are crazy up and down! Since the day they came available for the weekend after Thanksgiving!

I booked 2 days after the 330 day came up and I paid $181 total per person non-stop via Delta Express and it has just gone up, up , up and away! That same itinerary is now $380 per person.

We just were switched over to Song in the last couple of days. I had to call and get seats. Now today, you can change the seats yourself so I got even closer to the front!

 

[WebmasterAlex]

I got 2abc both down and back so I don't think I can get any closer

So did I!!! I changed both ways from row 3 and row 23 to both row 2 abcd.

I hope that was a good choice! I asked the Delta agent the other day how they will board and she put me on hold and then came back and said she believes it will be front to back (unlike Delta Express). We'll see!

 

[CamColt]

My flights went up again!

Saturday evening they were 237.00
Saturday night, 257.00
Sunday 432.00
Tuesday 555.00

They have more than doubled in 3 days! Glad I got in when I did.

For those who are getting seats close to the front of the plane thinking there will be quicker off loading, 757s load and unload from the middle, right behind where the old first class seats had been.

 

[WebmasterAlex]

It seems like I never have ANY luck flying southwest, if the flight times are good then the super cheap fares aren't available!

So how does it work exactly then? Whose first, then last??

It goes middle, back, then front?

Just wondering how it can work.

 

[Kruuzin]

Loading is the same with rear of the plane going first and working their way up to row 1. It's just when deplaning the people sitting in the front 1/4 of the plane turn and walk toward the back to get out. The entrance is about 1/4 way from the front. The reason I mentioned this is that some people like to sit as close to the front of the plane as possible to be the first one off and if you do that on a 757 that won't happen.

Hey weeore33, South Plymouth here too.
