soeluckydmg Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 HI, I am going to be flying to disney in Feb 2008 and was wondering if anyone knew of any discounts. Any information or help on saving money will be appreciated. Should I book early or wait to get a better rate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

conj Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 why continental? How far to JFK from Newark? http://www.jetblue.com has flights from JFK to Orlando for $59 each way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soeluckydmg Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 I prefer continental just because that is the only airline I ever used. I have a baby and a 7 yrd old and really want to limit the travel time and I have never been to JFK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conj Posted July 25, 2007 Share Posted July 25, 2007 ok, as a benchmark - with 1 child, and an infant in your lap: Continental Newark to Orlando non stop $218 - Cheap tickets, as low as 138 with stops (per person) Expedia - If you fly on the 26th you can get as low as $143 non stop per person (287 for the 3, baby in lap) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artesian Posted July 26, 2007 Share Posted July 26, 2007 I prefer continental just because that is the only airline I ever used. I have a baby and a 7 yrd old and really want to limit the travel time and I have never been to JFK. I've been through the same thing with the kids and always said I would only do EWR. Well now that mine are 8 and 4 I keep my options open. I'll give you an example of last years trip 2nd week of August. Could not get a flight less than 1200 for the 4 of us. That said let me try somewhere else. Wound up flying LGA for 820 for 4. Even with the $100 for parking at LGA I still thought it was worth it and now my search goes as far south as Philly if the numbers work right for me. Friend of mine is in the same boat as I was this year on EWR. I went on Airtran out of Philly and for the dates he needed they had a flight for 300 for 4 people. No it's not a misprint. Even though Philly is 90 minutes away $900 difference goes a long way. Alls I'm getting at is if you can be somewhat flexible in your plans you can find cheaper flights.

soeluckydmg Posted July 26, 2007 Author Share Posted July 26, 2007 Thanks alot for all your help.. I have not flown in so many years. I can not believe that they charge as mch as 500.00 to go to FL. That was the price for the original date I choose. I have since changed them to fly out on different dates that are not so bad. Well still bad to me for over 1,000 but not as bad as 2,000. LOL!!!
