So what did your flight cost?-

[roscoepc1]

We have several friends who JUST used them and they were very happy with them....we literally couldn't afford any of the other *choices* this time around.

We also paid $896 for 4 of us to fly BUF to MCO, August 19-26. We love flying out of Buffalo. Gives us an opportunity to do a little shopping and going through customs in the car is a breeze. Also allows us to check in to our flight right at our WDW resort.

For our upcoming trip Aug 17-24, I paid $275 USD per person with Southwest out of Buffalo ($350 CDN). We've never flown from Buffalo, but I couldn't find anything less than $500 per person out of Toronto, so it'll be worth the drive over the border to save the $$$.

You are going to love the Buffalo airport compared to Pearson. So small and quiet and for the amount of money you save, completely worth it.

We are flying out of Buffalo Aug 20 -29 by Southwest for $700 for the 2 of us. We took Early Check in for $50 so we don't have to do check in they will do it for us.

DW and I are flying down May 8-16 on JetBlue, in the "even more" section. $310 USD return each via BUF.

When I booked, these flights were $200 pp less than flying out of Toronto, and I get more legroom... I'm 6'4", so that's a win/win for me. DW isn't thrilled about the 2 hour drive to BUF, but I managed to convince her. The price difference is more than enough to cover the rental car for our trip, which I love for getting to DTD etc...

Just booked flights for March Break 2015 out of Pearson with Air Transat, 440.00 return all taxes and fees included. Was planning on SW out of Buffalo but when I saw these flights I thought I better grab them now.

That's awesome! And now you won't have to worry about blizzards or lake effect storms in Buffalo playing havoc with your plans..

About 5 weeks ago I booked my return flights for August (nonstop) MCO/YYZ at a cost of $262 per person all taxes & fees incl. on AC. Today while checking for flights down to MCO. I checked out return flight - it has jumped to $448 a person!!

Today I'm glad I listened to my inner voice/instincts back in March...

 

[minnie56]

That's great!
I find if you plan ahead ...you can grab something from YYZ for under $300 pp
Good for you!

 

[MidnightParade]

I booked the morning that South West released their October dates and we are flying Buffalo to Orlando for $271 USD per person round trip, after exchange and mastercards forex came to $309 CAD each. This includes the early bird check in as well.

Very excited to try flying out of Buffalo, never done it before. Saving about $250-$300 which includes the gas and overnight hotel. Looking forward to no customs line at Pearson! Or needing to arrive 3 hours beforehand!

Wow that is a great price!!!

 

[OnceUponATime15]

Wow that is a great price!!!

It's still high for a one way flight.. $262 is better then $448. But I still need to book my flights down... UGH.

 

[dis_guy]

A bit off topic but I'm sure glad we don't have to book anything from YEG to MCO soon. The prices for our spring break season are just coming up and I sure don't see anything like the prices we got last year. We do hope to go in Nov 2015 so maybe we'll be lucky by then, or fuel prices will make flying prohibitive!

We live in the Windsor area so we usually fly out of Detroit (DTW) but costs were ridiculous this time around. SW was $1320 with stopovers both ways, and Spirit was $900 before bags, so add another $120 at least. Last week I checked out Flint Airport (FLN) and SW was $992 direct both ways for the 4 of us. Booked that baby I did Economy parking is $27 for the week, and it's only 35 mins farther than Detroit Metro for us.

Just booked Victoria to Orlando return... $848.00 per person and we were lucky to get that deal. Airlines assume that most people in the west travel to mostly California, Mexico, or Hawaii... so they rarely, if ever, discount Orlando. Wish they would realize it's not 1970 anymore and that people DO fly from the westcoast to WDW.

I hear ya! From Edmonton Orlando is supposedly a special fare on United but the prices I've been seeing lately are "special" all right. You can still get sub $500 fares here and there but for a spring break trip we need to go on Fri or Sat and those days are $800-$900 pp!

We've flown during Christmas/New Years peak season and never paid that much.

Yep... it's just silly. I suppose it has to do with volume, but until they make Orlando a regular routing in the west, people will continue to choose Disneyland over WDW as it's so much cheaper. They don't realize the route could expand if they just made it a bit more affordable and did a bit of PR work on it.

I'd think that United would be concerned as American has just started a nonstop from YEG to DFW with good connections to, well, just about everywhere. Maybe they're just happy running the "oilman's express" between Edmonton and Houston?

My sister recently flew on AA through DFW and she says they are using really nice new planes on that route. Might have to go back to Delta through MSP, though I really prefer making any needed connections south of the snow belt for winter/spring trips.

Our next expected trip is still a long ways off so I guess time will tell.
