Sw fares dropped for august!!!

[tinkerdee]

August fares dropped from MCO to BDL from $233 to $183....still not great but I was afraid not to book. The flight to MCO from bradley also dropped way down too. Check your flights........

I booked our flight down this morning from BUF to MCO. It was sitting at $154 and dropped to $109 still not great considering the most I've paid before is $64...

I booked it as a one way with a credit...still hoping it will drop more so that I can use part of that credit for the flight home!

Thank you! I have been waiting for this for the past week or so!

I just booked from Chicago to Orlando for 94.00 so I am happy!

Don't have my Disney booked yet though, waiting for May 3rd to book FD or no FD that's the day for me....

still up there for MHT (Manchester, NH) to MCO. We purchased for the 154 and hopping it drops so I can use the credit when we go back in Feb. I've been checking all day and nada! Hoping the discounts make it further north from CT tomorrow.

Im with you on waiting for the MHT fares to drop. Ive never paid 154. Ive never paid more the $99. I did get 4 tickets at $109 a while back, but my MIL is joining us so now Im waiting to purchase her ticket as well. Fingers crossed we see a drop soon. I wanted to give it to her as a mothers day gift.

No change at all out of ALB. I keep hoping for a sale cause with the credit I'll get, I could easily fund most of a separate trip if a good Ding fare came along at an off time later this fall or next winter!

Thanks for your post! I had booked 4/14 for the end of August and they immediately went up the next day. After seeing your post I checked and they dropped $40! So now I have a $120 credit for our 3 tickets!! Very excited

Thanks! I have been checking daily I thought. I just wanted to change our flight to non-stop if possible and the price did drop. Best $27 spent!

For those waiting on MHT, make sure you've installed DING. For both May and June I've seen $99 DINGs to MCO.

I bought the $149 tickets for August on opening day. It does hurt to pay that much when we've always paid less but if you check all the other airlines out of MHT or BOS or even PVD then you'll see that this is the best there is.

For February, you probably want to book on opening day since the school break next year is the same for MA and ME as it is for NH. They always have their break the week of President's Day and NH does ours the last week of February but unfortunately in 2011 those are the same week meaning there will be families from all 3 states trying to book those same flights. I'll be checking the Jetblue fares when they first open up since SWA seems to be higher that the JB opening fares and I've always wanted to try JB even though BOS is nowhere near as convenient at MHT (car service, here we come).

Thanks! I will keep that in mind for Feb. I had heard that all three states are vacationing the same week I'm glad to be getting out of dodge because it will be crowded everywhere! Skiing will be impossible and forget any other indoor activities - they will be mobbed! I'm sure Disney will be crowded, but since we are going in Aug. and back in Feb. we are keeping a laid back approach for what we do and see. Maybe spend a little more time at BLT and take time to smell the roses.

Thanks!
