Not sure what to do!

Is anyone flying with NWA? They're having a lot of problems lately, but they have some good flights that I like. We're looking for next February (6-13), but I'm afraid that something may happen with the airlines and that we'd be stuck . I also found some decent flights with AirTran for less than $800 for the four of us (that includes trip insurance- never fly without it!). Any other good airlines that service Detroit and Orlando?

Also,is it time for me to book our flights, or should I wait a bit longer for deals? We don't fly that often so I don't know how to plan for this. I only want to do nonstop, and no weird super-early mornings or super-late at night times either (sorry- I'm a bit picky on this!). My DH gave me the thumbs up on anything less than $900 (lower would be better!), but I'm afraid if I wait too long, I may get a deal but on awful flights. I'd rather pay more money for the flights I like!

Thanks!

We are going around the same time (2/8-2/19). We already bought our tickets a few months back, and it is with NWA. We are flying out of MSP and there aren't many choices for nonstop. We paid around $860 for our 3 round trip, nonstop tickets (all fees, etc included) that had the times we wanted (7:05am departing MSP, and 1:15pm departing MCO). I am not worried about the problems they are having, we are still 6 months out yet.
