Personal Research - Airfares
| Thu, 06-21-2007 - 9:23pm |
This is purely personal research. What's the cheapest airfare you've ever paid to fly to Orlando? I'm trying to compare not just apples to apples, but Red Delicious Apples to Red Delicious Apples (so to speak).
Therefore (no identifying info, please!): from where did you fly; on which airline; what time of day was your initial departure from your home city; teenager or adult fares (I have no one under 15 y.o.); Per person; & was it one way or round trip?
E.g., we fly to Tampa almost every year from Philadelphia, PA, and the cheapest we've paid is $88.00 per adult, round trip. The fares seem to increase during the summer, but then at the end of September-October, they dip again, and that's when we buy our tickets.
Thanks in advance.

The cheapest I have flown was from Orlando to Newark last January for $138.00 RT. We flew out at 8:30am and our return flight was at 7pm.
I know if you don't care about the times you fly, Priceline can be very cheap, and setting your own prices are great.
Good luck finding cheaper tickets
You are all making me so jealouus!!
I am looking for flights for our September trip and so far from Ottawa (Canada) to Orlando the cheapest I have found is $315 per person round trip.

The flights that we've paid for (have a SFIL who works for Delta) the best we;ve gotten is
$69 per person on Airtran from Newport News VA to MCO with a 1 hour layover in Atlanta in August.

We fly from Philly to MCO. The cheapest I've paid was in September 2005 (I think I may have booked in June) using a DING fare on Southwest. If I remember correctly, it was like $69 one way per person. The flights were direct, and we flew mid-morning going down, and mid-afternoon coming back.
This past trip (May of this year), I booked on AirTran in November. I was impatient, and booked it at $99 one way per person. I know I could have gotten it cheaper on Southwest, but Airtran had the flight times I wanted, and the flight was direct, which is important to us. Our flight left Philly at like 8:55 am and left Orlando back to Philly at 8:30 pm....
HTH's!

Like Sonya, the cheap rate we get is $69 per person on Airtran (for anyone over the age of 2), one way. We fly the non-stop from Dayton, OH to Orlando that is generally very early on a Saturday morning. The trip is under 3 hours. We opted for a rather late return flight the following Saurday - 7 pm or so - and it was the same price, straight through to home.
A few times we could not get that rate, but we got $79 instead.
