Would you buy airfare through Disney?

[bjscheel]

Just went through the Disney package quote to see how it turned out. The flight through Disney on American is $1030. That is exactly the price I get on my own through the AA website. Would you just get it through Disney then? I figure that way they would already have my flight info for ME.

I thought I would be able to get it cheaper directly from the airline Sure wish I could get it under $1000!

I don't know what airport you are closest to, but if SWA serves your airport, I bet you can get tickets from SWA for less than half that amount.

I always go directly to each airline's website to find pricing. First I'd find out what airlines at your airport serve both your airport and MCO. Then go to those airlines's websites and get your best price.

And DME does not require booking airfare through Disney for you to participate.

Pretty sure SW is not in Des Moines. I guess I could check out of Omaha.

I looked at SWA's route map, and they do not serve Des Moines. They do, however, serve Omaha.

Yeah, and a flight in May would be $1700 from Omaha to Orlando! We are not going till December, but still, they seem more expensive yet!

I'm just trying to help. Check out other airlines. I saw a one-way flight from Omaha to MCO for about $107 per person. I guess you're flying a bunch of people. BTW, how did you get pricing for December on SWA? That schedule is not even released yet. The pricing difference between December and May can be considerable, especially when most of the May cheap seats are probably sold out by now.
