In the end, more time in Disney is always good.

So I am staying in Disney a little longer than anticipated…..I got an email that my flight home on August 25th was canceled!!

I had booked on Canada Jetlines (small sun run carrier) and they are not operating all of August!! But not notifying passengers until 14 days out. So. I was scrambling for a replacement for Sunday night. Here were my options….

West Jet ~ $720 at 5 am
Air Canada - $1100 at 9 pm
Porter ~ $620 at 8:45 pm

I decided to look at the 26th and found a Porter flight for $440. So nabbed that then checked the DVC website for a studio for the night of the 25th. I lucked out with a studio at Old Key West for 11 points.

Luckily I had insurance and will get a refund with the airline. Buyer beware…sometimes things are too good to be true. BUT I get an extra day with Melinda and Billie so that’s pretty awesome! Thank goodness for an AP and DVC.

Porter. Definitely Porter.
WestJet is canceling flights all over right now

How are they allowed to over book flights?

In this case it was completely cancelled.

And more Disney is always good!

This is true!

How could an airline cancel a flight like that so close to departure? That would be tough if you didn't have the flexibility to stay another day. We liked our stay at OKW but it is a lot of messing around to change rooms.

They cancelled flights for the whole month! It's so weird. I am very lucky I was able to have the flexibility to stay another day.

In the end, more time in Disney is always good.

Porter. Definitely Porter.

I went with Porter on the 26th.

Pkondz had me all worried about my West Jet flights this past week, and everything was fine. The flights were on time, and I had no issues.

My cousin was supposed to fly from Winnipeg to Seattle last Sunday... her flight got canceled until Tuesday... and then Thursday. Her husband was meeting her there on Thursday and his flight got canceled until Friday.

So... Yes there was too cause for concern!
(But I am glad your flights were fine. )
