I took the train, a sleeper car, to Florida. It took the same amount of time as if I drove a car and it wasn't cheap. The sleeper car has its own bathroom and the kids wouldn't be restricted to their seats. You can bring your own food or use the dining car.
Check the Atlantic City airport. My friend always went to Florida from there. She always got good prices.
Yes, Nov. 8th is an airline holiday...first its a Sunday and a busy travel day (tues. wed. thurs are cheapest). 2nd it is the end of NJ Teacher's Convention. Schools are closed that Thurs. & Fri. In Orlando it is unofficially known as Jersey Week since so many people fly down that week and everyone wants to return home on that Sunday.
Hmm just looked on Continental's site 11/07 or 11/09 would put you at almost $100 cheaper..there must be something going on we don't know about for 11/08
Yes I drove with 3 kids and thought I'd have a melt down before we got there NEVER again..it's to long but that is me there are many that make that trek with kids with no problems
My husband works for CO and they have many fllights in and out...direct. Usually 2hr. 43 min. flights in....which is nice!!
9 flights a day I am coming up with.............want to go with our 4 year old twins soon!
If you are flying anytime from 10/30 to 11/8 Newark to Orlando and back you will pay big bucks because of "Jersey Week". Try one of the NY airports or Philly.
Ah yes, the famous Disney Jersey Week. Apparently a lot of districts are off the whole week this year instead of just the two convention days. I tried to book a few days at Atlantis one year during NJEA Convention and airfares were sky high because everyone tends to travel then.
I always go to Sidestep.com to look for flights. Just tell it the dates and that you want direct flights and it will list the airlines and prices.
