Here's the link to the DINGS fares threads. They post new DINGS from/ to MCO everyday. My TA ia AAA and is the one who told me about them, so yours should know too! Ask your TA, can't hurt. Another thing I read on this thread is that you can book your SW tickets, then if a DING comes out, you can get credit for what you already paid and use it for the DING fare price (they talk about how to do it, but I can't remember the process....). Whatever is left would be a voucher you could use for another trip. Neat, but I think I am gonna just wait a month or two for the DINGS!
Best of luck!!

I booked my flight on Spirit Air and paid $24 round trip including taxes from Atlantic City to Orlando. Spirit now flies out of more locations. I just kept checking the site for Spirit to release a sale and booked immediately as there are only limited flights at the discounted price. Hope it helps someone.

$24!?!?!?!??!?!? WOW!! I would go to WDW every month if I could get there for 24 bucks!! That is great!! Congrats!!

Wow! I have never looked into Spirit since they don't fly out of anywhere near here. My inlaws live close enough to DTW, though, that if a fare that cheap came up it would warrant staying the night at their house before!

you can register on their website and they will send you emails about their specials. My aunt called and told me about the special. It was $5 each way plus tax. I booked six round trip tickets for under $150 TOTAL. I could not beleive it. They had some flights that were $1 each but those flights didn't work for me, not that it really matters much. My mom got a flight to West Palm Beach on Spirit for $33 round trip. Good luck. I hope someone else can get a great deal.

Dh and I upgraded to AP's from MYW tix last week while at WDW. Now we are planning our next Disney trip for may before kids get out of school. Our current plans are for staying at CBR for the first time ever. Now we wait for codes.

 

[drutherford]

F.Y.I. I just received an email from Spirit and they just released $8 flights. I hope someone can take advantage of the great deal.

Hi all,
Has everyone made their ADRs yet? Where are you all eating?
We're coming off the cruise to spend only 3 days in the park. I wasn't going to make any dining reservations because I thought with such little time, we wouldn't want to spend a lot of time on dining - especially after eating non stop on the cruise. But then I got nervous, that we wouldn't be able to sit at all. Soooooo....day 1...ADR at LeCelliers. day 2....Liberty Tree Tavern - I went for a late lunch (2:00). day 3...did the late lunch thing again at The 50's Prime Time. Now at least we'll sit once a day. Any suggestions ... should I change any???

 

[sandymandr]

late lunch sounds like a great idea!! And remember, you can always cancel if you decide you are too full!!!
I got my ADR's at the 180 mark, I've read too much DIS to not make ADR's, but I also figure May might be a little easier to get into places as the crowds should be less than peak.

Ohmygosh! I wish we had Spirit around here! That's unbelievable.

No kidding!!!

Here's what DW and I are doing for ADR's:

Day 1: Princess Storybook Dinner
Day 2: Crystal Palace Breakfast
Day 3: Cape May Cafe
Day 4: California Grill
Day 5: Daytona Day
Day 6: 'Ohana
Day 7: 1900 Park Fare
Day 8: Artist Pointe
Day 9: Le Cellier
Day 10: No ADR as of yet...probably lunch though
Day 11: Liberty Tree

I think we hit all of the good ones! I'm thinking of Kona Cafe for lunch on Day 10 because we'll be at MGM in the morning and we want to be able to get the EHM's at AK that night but we really don't want to eat at Boma again, it was alright but we didn't think it was good enough to eat at again when there are so many other choices.
