Yeah it's the flights that are very hard for us currently. Finding a decent price NS flight is very hard to do. Not nearly as easy as it used to be. The one small carrier we love flys to MCO but gives us a 4.5 hour layover in SNA.. so at that point it doesn't make any sense to then go WDW. I have hopes better flights will come in 2025
I suppose living in the OC does have some benefits. We're 15 minutes from DL, HNL is a 5.5 hour flight west, and MCO is 5.0 hours east. We fly out of LAX and not John Wayne as the flights are more frequent, we enjoy having lounge access, and we always have enough bodies to use carpool lanes.
And getting a NS from LAX Im sure is super easy and affordable too
It is. I really won't fly anything but Delta for pleasure and most business (will fly SW for business occasionally if it's an intra-state flight up to SAC or the Bay Area), so having access to the airline hub definitely increases flight selection.
Same here! Makes very little sense to actually apply for a withholding certificate unless the total sale price is at least $15k (especially when you have 2 owners like me… more fees oh yay!). Most of my contracts are small (50-100) so I’ll just have to hold those to the bitter end unless I want to suck up a 25% on sale once you include broker fees.
Fellow LAX and DL traveler. Has Delta started using algorithmic pricing to gouge you for Aulani trips yet? We are trying to buy our flights to HNL (during Christmas break) and DL keeps quoting prices that are 2-3x all the other airlines.

If the other contract isnt Fidelity and the seller on the Fidelity isnt paying fees remember that the $225 they charge equates to $1.13pp on a 200 point contract. Still cheaper but i think people forget fidelity has this fee that no one else has that I am aware of.
I haven’t heard of them coming through on weekends and assumed they worked typical business hours. That said, others on here have far more experience than me!
And the only time I have ever had issues with DVC contracts is with Fidelity listed contracts…..
Good luck with that one… hopefully the monster will be on a break when that crosses the desk!
Dunno. I just looked and a round-trip ticket, 12/24-12/31, main cabin versus main cabin comes up with $861 for Delta, $592 for American, $721 for United, and $787 for Hawaiian. All LAX to HNL, all 12/24 to 12/31, main cabin non-refundable (to find the cheapest seats).Fellow LAX and DL traveler. Has Delta started using algorithmic pricing to gouge you for Aulani trips yet?
