Pick seats on Southwest?

Oh ok…not bad at all! Sounds like its definitely worth it! Love the free checked bags~ my family usually each checks one, so that will save us $200 round trip! Now, if only they would hurry up and release their September flight schedule!

I didn't think the price was bad either. Especially when spending the kind of money we are spending for Disney. I mean, really, what's another $100? Lol, only when planning a Disney vacation would I ever say that!

One thing to think about if you have a connection. If your first flight is late, you may not be at the new gate when boarding starts. So you could end up being one of the last ones on even with EBCI. So when you blame families for not getting EBCI and boarding late, it could be it's not their fault.

This is true! I never thought of it because we hardly ever fly with connections (2 bad experiences made me say never again) unless there is honestly no other choice. I will even pay higher prices for direct flights, instead of taking the cheaper ones with connections.

KaLyn- exactly! We would be flying direct non-stop from Orlando!

FYI, direct and non-stop flights are two different things. A direct flight has one or more stops, a non-stop has none. Knowing the difference is important when selecting flights.

Hmmm, thanks for that clarification. I would not have known the difference either. I had to look it up.
