Help! change planes at RSW or RDU?

[ajpa]

I think I am going to have to do a plane change on Southwest on my way home from wdw.
My choice is either to change at RDU (Raleigh-Durham) or RSW (Ft Myers).
Anyone know which airport is smaller & more convenient?

For RDU there is 1 hr 30 min layover
For RSW there is 1 hr 45 min layover

Price is the same & arrival times are both ok. Which should I pick?

Thanks!!!!

Looking at the maps from the two airport websites - RDU and RSW. They look about the same size.

Ft Myers is South of Orlando, Raleigh-Durham is north. I prefer to travel in one direction, so unless you are flying further south of Ft Myers, I'd go for RDU.

Thanks! I ended up picking RDU since that flight leaves a bit later so we won't be as rushed in leaving!
I'm getting quite excited. It's our first time to fly SW so I am a bit nervous.

I didn't do early-bird check in and will rely on checking in exactly 24 hrs before flight.

Where do people usually check in online when at WDW - do all the resorts have wi-fi now?
