Airline websites and other links *edited to add Fare Watching sites*

** Edited to add Fare Watcher Sites... scroll down to the bottom **

Here are some airline websites for you to look at while shopping for the perfect flight to WDW:

AirTran Airways - Home Page

American Airlines

ATA

Continental Airlines

Delta

Frontier Airlines

Northwest

Spirit Air

Southwest Airlines

United

U.S Airways

Also some fare saver sites: Note, I check fares on these sites and compare them to the airline's own fares. Some of these sites may have extra booking fees that the airline doesn't have.

Orbitz

Travelocity

Expedia

Bestfares

Cheaptickets

With the rising cost in airfare (and flight schedules and luggage allowances being limited), watching for a good price is even more important than ever. Here are several Fare Watching Sites that can help:

Fare Compare - Cheap Airline Tickets, Cheap Flights And Discount Airfares

Kayak - Cheap Flights, Airline Tickets, Cheap Airfare & Discount Travel Deals - Kayak.com

Yapta - Yapta - Track Airfares, Save Money


If you have other sites you frequent or if I left out your favorite airline please add to the list. We are pretty lomited to airlines here in Colorado so please help me if I left some major flyers out!

Happy shopping!

Re: Airline websites and other links

If you are flying from Minneapolis/St. Paul, Sun Country Airlines often has more reasonable fares. Also, Sun Country flights are always direct to Orlando, which is a plus! www.suncountry.com

Re: Airline websites and other links

For those folks like myself who live in Canada, here are a couple of links for Canadian airlines that service the Orlando area.

Cheap Flights, Airline Tickets, Cheap Airfare & Discount Travel Deals - SideStep is an awesome tool it will search all airlines for your specifications and will find you the best deals! It also searches expedia and the other deal sites IIRC... I found round trip airfare for next year's trip from Seattle to Orlando for under 300 bucks!

At this point, just remember to be wary of going with a cheaper smaller airline. We've just seen 4 airlines declare bankruptcy within a matter of days, and with fuel costs going the way they are, they probably won't be the last. It really hurts that we are losing all of the airlines that gave decent pricing for flights.

I like using the site ITA Software - Solving the Travel Industry's Most Complex Problems

Click on "Search Airfares using QPX" and then click on "Log in as guest". You can search based on many different variables and compare.

for comfort and room i've booked with jet blue out of jfk to mco we are big people and out of all the air lines i think jet blue has the most to offer . more leg room and width to there seats and i booked 8 to 9 month out . plus when traveling with kids in car seats it is easier to strap car seats in .
good luck have a nice trip.
