Cheap flight deals to Orlando
Cheap flight deals to Orlando?
I am traveling with my 3 children from Baltimore/Washington or Dulles to Orlando, FL on November 18 thru November 25. I have my hotel book (thanks to having a timeshare), but I am not able to find a flight at a reasonable fare. Where can I go and what should I do?

I live in Orlando, and I have heard that if you book a flight into Sanford International airport it is much cheaper. There are only a few off price airlines that fly into it, but it is worth a shot. Sanford is just outside of Orlando. Hope this helps.
2 :
USA 3000, Jet Blue, and AirTran offer low rates. Take a look at their websites.
3 :
The busiest weekend of the year to travel is the weekend right after Thanksgiving. If you are hoping to find a flight that is available and at a good price you may want to be flexible on your dates.
4 :
We got great airfare through Allegiance Air who offers non-stop service from our local airport to Sanford Airport in Orlando. It's not the major airport, but it's worth the price! You can also try Jet Blue - I've heard they have great deals too. Good luck.

I had the same problem i was going to go with jet blue but continetal airlines was even cheaper. They were the cheapest I found taking me to Orlando International airport. Good luck
6 :
MCO is a hub for Southwest Airline. If you use their program "DING" It does a fare watch adn will let you know if there are cheap tickets and when you can get them and what not.
7 :
sign up for DING deals on Southwest, though it is unlikely you will get anything for the holiday......consider renting a car and driving

How far in advance should I purchase Southwest tickets
How far in advance should I purchase Southwest tickets?
I'm going to be in D.C. this summer, and I wanted to fly home to Texas a couple times during the summer. I've been looking at Southwest to fly out of either the Dulles airport or the Baltimore airport and to fly into the Houston Hobby airport. I'm looking far in advance, at like mid-June or mid-July. Earlier this week (around Tuesday) I looked at some of the flights between Baltimore and Hobby. They ranged between $110-144 one way at just about all times. These prices started in the last week of April and went on as far as I could see into September. I looked today (Saturday) at prices and they started at $188 one way. Does Southwest raise the prices online on the weekends, or have I missed out on the $110-144 deal even though I am looking at purchasing two and three months in advance? When is the best time to buy Southwest tickets?

Go ahead and purchase so you can get the best deal & the flights you'd like. They feel up fast especially during the summer months.
2 :
southwest sells their tickets based on seating capacity and how far advance you purchase. the absolute cheapest fares are put out 6 months prior to departure. these are usually snapped up fast. especially when they are 49 to 99 one way. after that, the far goes up in small increments until they get to the last seats. the fare will keep going up closer to departure based on the following time periods, 3, months, 2 months, 45 days, 30 days, 21 days 14 days, 7 days, 3 days and walk up fare. unlike most airlines, southwest does not usually discount tickets at the last minute even as they run a 90% on most flights. in other words, they know flights are going to fill irregardless. the fares will however fluctuate from week to week, day to day because people cancel or change their plans so seats open up. but it's best to book as soon as you are 100% sure you need the ticket.

You should have bought the tickets when you saw the $110-144 price. Airlines sell their tickets in blocks beginning with the lowest fares, when that allotment is sold out, they sell the next highest fare and so on. There's not usually an exact date or timeline when prices start going up, but usually a month or less is when cheap prices are much harder to get. Try a website like Kayak.com to see what other airlines are charging and if you see a good price, don't wait, buy it. http://www.kayak.com/flights

well first 2-3 months in advance is NOT "far in advance". flights for june, july, and half of august have been up since about november. typically you want to purchase tickets as soon as possible. i have found that on southwest.com on every other tuesday they do seem to lower their rates. i'd definitely check back this tuesday and if they are not lower again then perhaps wait until the next tuesday and if they are still not lower then buy them anyways.

Is 54 minutes enough time for a connection in Cleveland Airport (CLE)
Is 54 minutes enough time for a connection in Cleveland Airport (CLE)?
Im taking a Continental flight (with no luggage-only carry on) from to Washington Reagan by way of Cleveland. My connection time is only 54 minutes, and its the last flight to Washington Reagan of the night. There are later flights to Washington Dulles and Baltimore. I have to be in Washington on that next day. Is Cleveland a reliable airport, and is Continental good about connections and getting you on a plane back home?

Hate to say it, but anything less than an hour is a tight connection. It will depend on your first flight arriving in CLE on time. If it's late, it's up to the people in CLE to decide to hold (if necessary) and chances are they won't. If it is on time, you should have no problems. I would suggest replanning your first flight to give you more of a connection time.
2 :
I would say that barring any delays, 54 minutes should be ample time. It is a little tight but maybe your departure gate is really close to your arrival gate. If you can try to have a seat towards the front of the plane so you can get off faster to make your connecting flight, that would be optimal.
