April 2012 Airfares

Congrats on pushing the button Luvsdaisland! Woo hoo!
I feel you, I hate overnight layovers too but you know it's all worth it in the end!

Delta, I know what you mean about the price hike!!
Take a look at the notification I just received this morning
the price went up 70% that's RIDICULOUS!



I've never seen the price that high! I literally gasped out loud!

I have regained my composure though and I have not lost hope.

I'm still waiting it out, cool as a cucumber.
I'm not falling for their scare tactics and I'm not worried about the seats selling out.
"Sweet spot" soon come.
These prices will drop.

American has a non stop coming home and thats what I really want. Cheaper flights have lay overs that aren't too bad but don't really want to do them with Daniel. May have to though. Any input on layover with a kid? Anyone?

You have nerves of steel, Clarity! You go, girl!

lol! - thanks tfw73

Truth is, I have no choice but to wait. I can't afford any of those prices.
If I DID have the money, I probably would have booked tickets for an April trip months ago!

I'm not usually a risk taker and I don't recommend that everyone adopt my approach. If you have the funds, secure that ticket now.
but I have a good feeling about this!

Delta,

I have no advice but I would think changing flights with a baby would be ALOT of work. And he will probably be cranky because of his lil ears popping from going up and down so I would say do direct non stop if possible. And you know when you come back on a connecting flight it is such a process...collecting your luggage and rechecking it.

[Delta]

Wait! What?? Collect and re-check?! Oh hells no! Nope not for me. I'm watching my price. Right now its 617 (last week it was 577). I'm hoping it goes back to what it was and I will be happy. Very happy!

Sister Delta,

I just checked Airtran out of Midway via Orlando in April. 519.00 with tax. There's also a 10% dicout code that Gail posted for Airtran

Home this helps,

One helpful word of advice if this is your cute little one's first time flying.
Have a bottle ready and give it to him right as the plane is taking off, it will help with his ears popping when the plane takes off and goes up in the air.

[Delta]

Thanks Marley. He has flown once but he was a really little guy then and was sleep so I don't think he even realized we were anywhere different LOL.

[marley9808]

Oh well that is great then!
The first time I ever flew I was only 2 months old and my mom said when the plane took off my eyes got so big like they were going to pop right out of my head! LOL
