Flights to WDW

emman · 09-03-2008, 11:06 PM

Hi everyone! I am planning a trip to WDW this december, and I am looking for flights, but rates are soarin'!!! So, can anyone tell me where can I find a flight for less than $400 dollars taxes included, I'm flying from El Paso TX, cheapest I've found is $410 dollars in Orbitz.com, so any recomendations anyone?

What are the dates you are going??
If it is right around the holiday, prices are bound to be a little high.
Try leaving or arriving on a different date, or try flying at a not so popular time.
I used Southwest the last time i went down. They sometimes have "Internet only" specials

Southwest is usually pretty cheap, and USairways is pretty good. If you book like 10 months in advance you get stuff cheap. Like really cheap. I got a flight from AZ to orange county Califronia for 40 bucks one time, 10 months in advance.

Well, I'm

Oops!! Wrong button there hehe, well, as I was saying, I'm traveling from Dec 14 to the 21, so only have 3 months of advantage, I have found the cheapest tickets in orbitz, and they are around 410 dollars taxes included, would like to find something about 20 or 30 dollars less, btw, Southwest is actually one of the most expensive options lol

you'll want to try leaving on a thursday, friday, or monday. Least that's what I found to be cheap when planning for a thanksgiving trip. Usually, you need to book airfare and hotel together to find anything under 400, tho.

That's not too bad of a deal. I found a good price to fly from AZ, to Texas, then to Orlando. And we paid something like 600 from Texas to Orlando. It was steep, but the best we could find.
Our school is going to Orlando for a broadcast Journalism convention next march, and if we book now we can get prices for 600 round trip.

When I went last month, I flew with Delta. They were great and I believe they were pretty cheap. So that could be another option if they use El Paso...

You can fly stand-by, which is usually much cheaper, but you aren't given a seat, you wait and see if anyone didn't show up.

emman · 09-06-2008, 06:49 PM

Isn't that a little risky? I mean, it is an 8 person party.

austen · 09-06-2008, 08:22 PM

Just out of curiousity, anyone know how long the flight is from california to florida?

Im gonna guess 4 hrs?

emman · 09-06-2008, 09:03 PM

more like 6, it is almost a 4 hour flight from El paso to Orlando, and 2 hours from El Paso to LA, so I'm guessing, 5 and a half

^It really depends on which way the jetstream is going. If your flying with it, you go faster, if there is no jetstream then you go at a normal rate. And if your going against the jet stream, you go very slow.
