Are you referring to USA 3000? I've never flown them but I've heard of others that have. You may want to do a search, I seem to recall a recent thread on them.

Hi Blondie!

I lived in Folcroft when I was a kid for a few years, the Disney site is a "small world"! LOL I actually was born and raised and went to school in Delaware County. My dh keeps moving me WEST!

We are flying with USA 3000 11/27 returning 12/5, there have been recent post stating some flights were cancelled. I am alittle concerned about our 12/5 flight but feeling okay about 11/27 due to it being the 2nd most air traveled day of the year. I am worried about that 8:30AM flight on Monday!

USA 3000 was recommended to me by my brother and a manager at the company I work with. Both gave very good recommendations, I am just hoping not to be cancelled.

I booked for $59 each way, months back, I keep checking and I still think their current fairs are still pretty good.

Good luck

cool, well it is exactly the same and I am in the "village" down the street from the school which is where the boys go.

Anyway, haven't done anything as far as getting there!!

I was booked with USA3000 for our trip in 19 days! I booked back in May and apprx 3 weeks ago I got a phone call stating that my flights were cancelled then they called back and said I'm sorry only youre outgoing flight was cancelled! So now I have to return to PHL but have no flight out! I was kinda upset not only that it was 5 weeks prior to my vaca but I live in Jersey and the only reason we were flying out of PHL was the great prices! So I got to thinking and I called them back and asked when the last possible time was they could cancel they told me 1 day prior! I was kinda walking on glass because the first being csncelled the odds of the other would be high too! So I explained my situation and the Girl I spoke too was very helpful and they issued me a credit for my total airfare so they did refund all! I can't say anything bad there! The girl really was very nice! The only thing I was upset about was it takes them 72hrs to put there paperwork thru and then it could take anywhere from 4 to 6 weeks for you're credit card to be credited back! Thank God I had other means because 5weeks wouldve been my vaca and 6 weeks would be back from vaca! I have heard others that were put on other flights but were not happy with the times! The dates they fly are very limited so really you have to be flexible and willing to change with them if they should cancel.

Well you know after I thought about it, we lived next door in Sharon Hill, down the road from the trolley station, went to Holy Spirit 1st - 3rd. Have you been there all your life? Is the Dairy Queen still there near the Swiss Farm store, I guess I should ask is either still there? I'm dating myself, I know.

I have relatives that live in DelCo and since getting older so is everyone else and Aunts and Uncles are passing or celebrating milestone birthdays or anniversaries, so I'm down that way a couple of times a year.

My daughter used to work at Swiss Farms and the DQ is not that anymore, Dairy Treat and it is for sale. Everything there is the same but they knocked down the chinese restaurant and is building something else.

Yea the Chinese Restaurant, I remember. I asked about the Dairy Queen because my Grandma and Aunt worked there for years, many years ago. My Grandma worked there until she was in her 80's!! She quit when it started serving food food, not just ice cream. The name of the street we lived on was Brainard Blvd (I think that's how it spelled).

There was a creek behind our house and it was the play area for the kids in the neighborhood and on the other side of the creek. A friend I met many years later lived on the other side and remembers playing there and we probably played together as kids and didn't "know" each other.
