Do you have any flights leaving in 5 minutes???

How long can I wait before I have to book a flight on a certain date??? There are about four airlines that are ok by me. But can I wait till about two months before the flight date to book a flight to WDW? Opinions, thoughts, feedback etc. Thanks.

Sure you can wait until your ready to book most have to be done I would say no later then 4 hours before you fly to make sure you have time to arrive.

BUT and this is a BIG BUT..... You will Pay more if you wait that long. Generally, we have booked 30-180 days before and had decent prices. We have booked 4 months before and paid through the roof for a ticket because the time the person was flying was peak travel.

Now the closer to the date, the bigger risk that the flights will sell out or you will find that you can't get seats together, so Its recommended to buy tickets sooner rather then later.

A Great website to use to check all airlines for available flights, seats etc and get prices for most airlines, is Cheap Flights, Airline Tickets, Hotels, Travel Deals - Search 1000's of Travel Sites at KAYAK. You can also search for car rentals, and hotels this way too.

Good Luck!

Thanks. I am actually looking at around four to six months out to book. But I will look into Kayak now to see how it is.
