Unfortunately I find JB more expensive than anyone else recently.
I think NY-FL in January is going to be pricey on any airline.

i just looked on air tran and it looks like you can get round trip airfare

as low as $163.00 round trip, here is the link

ETA: i also think airtran is one of the few airlines, that are not charging for luggage

Is it out of the question to go out of Islip? We are flying Southwest. I just booked for $160 round trip. It came to $676 for 4 people in January. I acutally booked my trip around the airfare!

Right now Jet blue is usually more expensive. Keep in mind both of those lines charge for checking a second bag. So who ever you do decide to go thru you want to check what their baggage policy is b.c you don't want to get a good fare only to find you have to pay $30 or more pp to check 1 or more bags. I think all the major lines are charging for the 1st bag - Southwest is I think the only or one of the only ones who isn't charging to check luggage.

its BOOKED. 950 for 5 people (I paid an extra 30 bucks to reserve specific seats... my 8 year old would DIE if he couldn't have a window seat, and I'd like to keep us all together)

THANKS FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP!!!

It was $676 round trip, with all fees and taxes. The baby is a lap child so no seat for him. Plus I have DING downloaded on my computer. I am hoping to get a cheaper price, rebooking that leg of the trip (i bought each way separately) and using the credits in the futureChat Icon I love SWA!

Re: Cheapest flights to Orlando?

What about southwest?

Start looking at each of their websites and compare the prices. The longer you wait the more its going to be.
