    Default Cheapest way to fly to Orlando for Reading Week

    I am planning a trip to Orlando for reading week and was wondering if anyone had any tips on making the airfare as cheap as possible.

    Does anyone know of seat sales coming up?

    Cheapest fare website?

    etc.

    Thanks

    Im going out to New York and LA for reading week, and got some cheap deals. Go to the mall and check out the the travel agents "specials" (usually a sign on the window)...orlando is always cheap. Check all the sites like
    Expedia.ca
    Hotels.ca
    and just google cheap fares.

    ^ Only if you have the gold card option....regular card holders will pay about 3000-4000 air miles for a trip. I'm not quite that close yet so I had to pay full far.

    Beleive it or not, the cheapest fare I could find was off of the Air Canada website. I did end up finding the only flight that was on sale for about $525 CDN. That is not bad considering they are all now going for about 700-1000 now.

    Yeah it is with the gold mastercard option from Mosaik.. I am kinda an airmiles freak.. I collected 7600 in 8 months.. What can you do.. I guess we all have hobbies..

    The other downside is that you still have to pay for the airport tax and they dont do Hawaii yet

    start working for westjet. i fly for $2.50 plus tax anywhere westjet flies. you do fly standby, so you're not assured a seat, but it's a great deal for the price of a cup of coffee!

    But then again, thats because I drive a DSM. I personally have found my car very reliable, but thats because I get lamb at a good price.

    few things to note about flying to orlando.

    1. Charter flights are very rare and at most not cheaper than scheduled
    2. If your lucky you might be able to get a westjet seat sale which will still look about 500-700 per person incl taxes
    3. if not look at paying about 600-800 per person
    4. BOOK EARLY don't wait it out cuz u think its expensive its just gonna go up and up and up. the flight swork on a first come first serve based on class of service and availability and its all supply and demand so hop on the band wagon early and get booking!

    or work for air canada instead, don't pay the $2.50, and choose from way more destinations
