Unhappy w/flight times, should I switch airlines?

[Briar rose108]

As I have said before Usair has changed our flight times and now our arrival time is less than desirable and our departure time is worse!
I actually don't think we will make it to the plane from the cruise ship!
So I have a few options, one of them is to take a refund from Usair, and get my tix elsewhere......

I don't want to wait too long for fear of prices sky rocketing
So,
should I cancel and switch? How are other airlines with schedule changes? will I be biting my nails all the way til November?

Should I just stick with USair and hope for the best?

Help!!

its up to you. you are the only one who can decide that. but since your flight is still so far off you will be subjected to a few schedule changes on the other carriers as well and who knows what those changes will bring. you will also go thru 2 more schedule changes on usair before november and more than likely your schedule will be put back to the original one. the nov/dec/jan schedules pretty much are the same every year. the next sched change is july then after that its oct. the choice is entirely yours. no one can make that decision for you.

I wouldn't even think about leaving on the day of my cruise. Why not spend a few dollars more, get a hotel room, and fly the day before your cruise? I was on the 7 day magic in October. I made arrangements to fly the day before--Delta canceled my first flight, sent my bags to Cleveland(only 700 miles north), then to tampa. Disney found them just before we left and sent a car to get them. If that would have happened on Saturday, I would have had to flown to St Martin to join the ship 3 days later.

We are actually doing the land portion before our cruise, but I booked a 7 am flight and now according to the website it is leaving at 11 am. Which means we won't arrive in Florida until after 2pm and probably not be at our hotel and checked in until after 3. I don't want to waste our first day of our package traveling, so I am considering trying to move the flight to Friday instead of Sat. and booking a resort only (no passes) and just relaxing.
I have had two obstacles though:
While I have been wasting time procrastinating it seems most of the flights have gone up.
Also, we will be staying at the Poly for 5 days before our cruise and I wanted to add an extra night. But CRO says the only rooms they have are concierge. So I don't know what I am going to do.

I think I am stressing out a little too much over this issue. But that's how I get sometimes.

So what do you think?
