Will more flights open up for late October?

[popriv]

Snagged a good price / time for return flight to Providence on 10/31.
Checking every day to get a decent flight from pvd to mco on 10/24 or 10/25.
I would think they will release more flights as I'm still 5 months out??????
Or should I grab that late night / expensive flight now while it's there.
Get this flight booked and I can relax for this trip. That is until my fast pass window gets here. .steve

It is highly unlikely a new flight will open up now for October, you would be more likely to see a reduction in price if the flight isn't booking fast. Jet blue actually cancelled a flight already for November out of JFK in NYC. Otherwise if you know there are seats you can hold out and wait but always know that prices could go up. I just booked flights for my MIL on Sunday, i looked on Friday they went down and by Sunday they went back up and were more expensive.

Ha, not what I wanted to hear... If that's the case, perhaps I should grab those flights while I can? I have the option of flying in on Sat or Sunday but not many options for this days right now.

I thought jet blue might add flights as right now they only have two flights... Again playing the waiting game but don't want to get burnt. I could add a Friday night room and have Friday night flight as an option?

Look at the schedules for the weeks before and weeks after. For example, if you want to fly on Friday the 17th, look at the schedules for the 10th, 3rd, and 24th. Do they have the same number/time of flights? Barring a holiday weekend, I'd expect the same number of flights leaving around the same time for any given day of the week. Of course, there's no guarantee.

I guess there are a limited number of planes that can fly out of PVD on any given day. they won't add any more? Good flights are all booked so I'll start looking at a stop over in baltimore…
I booked a single night at POP for Saturday with the main vacation starting Sunday SOOO, I could cancel saturdays room if I end up booking a sunday flight…
Also , If I'm not getting a non stop flight I have to look at other airlines I usually don't consider due to their not flying nonstop from PVD to MCO…

Will also look at Boston although My return flight is to PVD and that would cause issues…

JetBlue is not going to add flights to their schedule, unless new routes open up. I would book soon. Have you checked other airline's prices for your route?

OK, once I accept I'm not getting a non stop flight I have a few options… Now just looking for the least objectionable stop over\time\price combo...

looks like a stop in NJ or NC…..
