LOL - I'm right there with you Deb - although I don't have my plane tickets yet - and I've only made 1 definite plan!!

I am so ready to buy tickets - but I ALWAYS fly Southwest to Disney - except for the one time that we brought my in laws, and they wanted to fly Pan Am out of Pease Air Base to Sanford - YUCK!

I cannot believe it - but Southwest's prices are sky high right now. I just cannot justify the purchase - they are asking around 350 pp round trip - and that's the internet fare! While I know they will probably come down - I'm a nervous wreck waiting. I've always paid less than $150 rt for September and December tickets. Scary!

I can get the exact times and dates I want on Jet Blue out of Boston for just over 200, but it scares me, since Jet Blue charges big bucks for changes. Hmmmm - what to do???

Well - it's going to have to wait a bit anyway - I've gotta get through Jennie's move in day and buying her books (gotta go through the campus bookstore - they won't release the book lists to freshmen). Sarah has MUCHO dance stuff to pay for, she needs braces, and Amanda just called to tell me that the estimate for her wisdom teeth extraction is $2300. OUCH!!! I can do the whole trip for that!! Hopefully the insurance will pick up the bulk of the tab.

Well - I've got my airplane tickets, but very few other plans. Guess I need to get on that . I'm trying to convince my DSIL to come with me. Her DH doesn't get the Disney magic so she hasn't been in a very long time. I know she'd the World during mousefest.

Marie - Keep an eye on SW. The cheapest flight out of Chicago was about $340 and just went down to $206 a couple of weeks ago. I had to take a one stop flight (no change, just a stop) in order to get the fare, but I think it's worth it!

I can't wait either! I'm taking a "solo" trip in December, too. Well, it really isn't solo, I'll be with my parents, but it's my first trip without the husband & kiddos. I'm really looking forward to some of these meets!

I also have to purchase airfare. I agree, SW is really high right now. Delta has a much lower fare (out of Hartford CT) but I prefer to go with SW. I think that I'll keep checking for another week or so and then go ahead and make a purchase. Looking forward to WDW at the holidays again. I am staying staying at a Disney Hotel for the first time. DH and I always stay at SOG. I got a much better rate at All Star Movies this time around. I am also hoping that a co-worker will join me, but I will probably end up going solo too.
