Southwest from Manchester NH

Do they ever have specials? I have only been watching fares for a few months but it seems like Manchester to Orlando is always excluded from specials.

Sure doesn't feel like we get specials out of MHT. I have seen some to places like Baltemore but not to vacation destinations. It stinks. If you aren't limited to school vacations then you will see some fares as low as $108 each one sometimes but that's about the best I seem to see to MCO. When school's out in NH, MA, ME, or VT forget about it.

I can pull mine out of school- forget vacation weeks- they jack up the prices! $108 sounds good- the fares they released for May are $170 one way but that seems high to me!

If you aren't limited to school vacation times then don't book right away. The prices will go down. I won't say they'll definitely go down as low at $108 but they'll go down from the current $170. They had been starting at $149 for the past year or so and have gone down from there during non vacation times so there's no reason to think they won't go down again during non vacation times.

Oh how I wish I could forget vacation weeks. Sigh...... On of my kids just can't handle it at this point. Two days is going to be tough enough. I ended up booking JetBlue out of Boston for February because SWA out of MHT was $249 going down and between $349 and $413 return depending on the date. Not gonna happen.

Oh that stinks- I really want to try to avoid Boston- we will see. Mine is only in first grade- two kids from his class are actually at Disney this week! I will just keep checking fares and hoping for the best. Wasn't sure if booking early was the way to get the lower fares or waiting for them to drop.

I never see any specials out of TF Green either. And that's where I fly SW out of.

My SIL took my niece and nephew this week. They got that crazy anniversary or something fare that had been posted on this board a few months ago. I called my brother and they booked immediately. $65 per person each way.

So to the original poster - are there EVER sales MHT to MCO. Yup.

I'm heading down on the 10th because they had a sale a few months ago and we had to use the credit by the end of Nov. It worked out great for us. But I have not seen prices drop for a vacation week-ever! I only go during the school vacations (this was the first exception) and the prices only went up from their opening prices.

SW is the only nonstop to Orlando from MHT. I think that's the issue.
