From MAJOR discounts to their pending merger with JetBlue Airways, Spirit Airlines has a lot going on — and they offer many direct flights to Orlando at a low price, so they can be a great option for families on a budget. Now they’ve just revealed big plans to improve the seats on their planes!
As a group of self-proclaimed vacation experts, our team has flown a LOT.
Terminal C at the Orlando International Airport
Collectively we’ve probably spent thousands of hours in airports across the country, whether flying to Disney World or taking an international trip. And all that experience means that we have a lot of advice to share! That’s why today, we’re rounding up our top air travel tips in the hopes that we can make your in-flight experience as smooth as possible.
Choosing an airline can be difficult. Do you go with pricing? Reputation? Best timing?
How do YOU choose an airline?
Our readers have said that Southwest Airlines is among their top favorites for flying to Orlando, and Southwest is making some changes to its rewards program! Whether you’re already a member or still considering it, find out what’s changing right here.
If you’ve broken into all of your piggy banks and you’re trying to make every dollar stretch as much as possible when it comes to travel costs, we’ve got some good news.
It’s Not All Bad News When it Comes to Flights
For starters, some flight costs had been going down as the situation with fuel costs changes. But with airplane prices going up and cuts in flight schedules, things are complicated. You’ve worked incredibly hard for the money you’re about to spend on your trip, so you might as well save money or take advantage of great perks when you can, right? RIGHT. So today we’re going over flight perks available now that you’ll want to take advantage of BEFORE they disappear!
If you’re planning to travel soon, there are a lot of updates to keep up with.
Time to Book That Flight
We’ve shared a look at average flight costs to get to Disney World, an upgrade that could help you avoid flight mishaps, and even a look at increased airplane prices and what that could mean for you. Now, we’ve got an update on a flight booking feature you may have used and enjoyed in the past that will be going away.
For every person who loves to fly, there’s someone who REALLY doesn’t like it.
Flying isn’t fun for everyone
Whether it’s the stress of traveling or the cramped seating arrangements on the plane, flying isn’t exactly relaxing. That said, one airline is solving the tiny seat problem with a creative solution — but it’ll cost you.
You may think you’re an airplane and airport travel expert, but get ready to be let in on some SECRETS!
There Are SECRETS You Need to Know!
Here at DFB, we’ve been covering all kinds of things that could impact your upcoming flights, including a look at the airlines to avoid if you don’t want to get bumped from your flight, a list of the BEST and WORST airlines in the U.S. ranked by customer complaints, and even a look at just how many bags airlines have mishandled and how to be prepared for the worst. But now we’ve got even more details to share thanks to a very special guest — a former flight attendant!
We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again: Disney World is can be expensive!
Cinderella Castle
That’s why we’re always on the lookout for ways you can save on your vacation, whether that be with your tickets, hotel rooms, merchandise, or even on how you get to Orlando! As the busy summer travel season starts to die down, many airlines are rolling out fall sales, and now another airline has just released some new discounts — but you only have a limited time to take advantage of them.
While teleporting to the Disney parks isn’t possible (yet), we may not be that far off.
LONG Plane Rides Are A Buzzkill
Even though flying to Disney World is a much faster method of travel than driving, it can still take some guests a day full of flights to get to Disney World. But imagine a world of supersonic travel, where you could cut your flight to Disney World in HALF. Pretty amazing, right? Well — supersonic travel is coming, and major commercial airlines are preparing for it.
Air travel can be chaotic…to say the very least.
Get Ready to FLY
Flight cancelations, staffing shortages, delays — it’s getting harder and harder to fly to Disney World. And when there are layovers and flight changes in the mix, even more stress is added to the process. That’s why we’re always excited to see more nonstop routes added to the Orlando International Airport (MCO)!
