just book Continental.

We are going to Disney in Oct and the rates for Continental are about $260 out of Newark. I heard they suck!!

I want to fly JetBlue but we have to wait 5 months until the fares come out. And DH is nervous that it will be higher then that.

What should we do?Chat Icon

I would wait. The time and expense of getting to and from Newark would eat up any savings if the jet blue fares are higher then $260.

I would wait - Continental's prices usually tend to mirror JetBlue's in the markets that JetBlue serves (they fly to Orlando from Newark as well).

Continental is a great airline though. I love flying them.

I would wait to Jet Blue comes out with their flights, I would just book it because once you have the fare and you keep checking up until you leave and the fare goes down they will give it to you...

My inlaws fly to FLorida on Jet BLue every 2 weeks to their house and they book all her flights as soon as she can and then keeps checking if the flights goes down... She has so much credit it is unbelievable...

Would you wait because you hate Continental or because JetBlue will be cheaper?

I would wait because I don't like flying in and out of Newark - it's either an expensive cab ride or a PITA taking the bus and LIRR.

Both, sort of. My DH flies Continental mostly because Jetblue doesn't fly to where he goes but if it did, he would go with jetblue regardless of price.

ME, I would fly with the best priced airline ONLY if it were a large difference between the two. if Jetblue is slightly more exp., I would go with that only because the tvs are a godsend for me and my overly active toddlers lol

Also, the fares usually drop and are less for that time of year. Chat Icon IMO, Halloween isthe best time of year to go to Disney because of how NOT packed it is!

Have you checked southwest? They fly into Orlando too.

Flying out of Newark for my HM to Vegas was the worst experience of my life. I DESPISE that airport. The way it is setup is ridiculous and we almost missed our flight and we got there 2 hours before! So I would say wait.
