I just booked on Vacation Express for a party of 11 for $169 pp. , non-stop flights. The times are excellent, leaving 8:00am and coming back at 7:45pm, all from a local airport to Sanford Airport and we do get seat assignments! This was a big concern with the discount airlines, first come first serve was not very welcome in our group since we do have 3 little ones (4yo, 5yo and 7yo) first time flyers didn't want to go through the hassle or worry about being separated. We are now all sitting together and we can even pay in 3 installments! They are a new service out of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Airport which is building up their facilities and trying to promote more business. I saw a few other airlines that were a bit cheaper but they all a big "BUT" included, SouthEast didn't have the Sunday flights we wanted, Song didn't have the right schedules we wanted (we would have to pay almost $100 to get the schedules we wanted), USAir from Philly would only let us book 6 seats, everyone had problem. I'm just happy this worked out. This airline is affiliated with Pace Airlines and they used to do charter flights for corporations and such. They specialize in "vacations" so the time schedules are set to maximize your vacation. Just wanted to share in case anyone from PA was looking for something like this.
