Good Delta Fares for October 2011 From/To BOS/MCO

[Hopefully]

I know I plan way far ahead, and maybe many here will reply that I am crazy to not wait a bit.
But last week I got our choice 7 AM non stop from Boston to Orlando for $114 one way. Our F & W dates our 10/16 and Jet Blue is only booking through 9/6. I booked it. I am not a SW fan, even for a lower price.
Tonight (first day) the 2 MCO/BOS non stop return Delta flights (10/27) are available for $89 - $99.10 with all taxes and fees. I jumped on it,
I am pleased with these fares, they are lower than I have paid in the past.
I hope this info can help someone else

Just remember, this far out it's very likely there will be schedule/equipment changes. Don't panic, don't gripe, don't claim Delta is mean or out to get you . Stay calm, check your alternatives, and call customer service.

Well done OP! I know the feeling, I used to book Delta for school vacations 11 months out, so I agree, those fares are great from BOS. Have a blast!

OP--I'd have done the same thing. Some of the old-timers here on the TB know that I suffer from a certain amount, of shall we say, Travel Related OCD. I can't relax until everything that needs to be planned, is planned.

I will jump on anything non-stop for ~$200. If I can get the non-stop round trip from New England to Florida for $300 or less, I'm happy. I'd be thrilled with the prices you have. Nicely done.

PS--My February 2011 flights have been booked since March 2010

I agree. I have very little "victimitis". I am accoustomed to schedule changes but the AM non stop BOS/MCO has been pretty stable for a few years.
I will react as "appropriate' and not rant, rave or blame Delta. I know this is way in advance, but I am happy.
I expect changes and I will keep on top of it.
Thanks

I share the same "disease" I need to "Get it booked' Anything under $300 seems good and I am happy!!!
