Hello all. I am a brand new poster here although not a new Disney fan!

I made a big mistake. A biggy. I live in Ontario Canada. We fly out of Buffalo as we are only a few short hours from Buffalo. We can often get cheap flights via Air Tran or Southwest or even JEt BLue. I have been watching fares for MONTHS every day!

On August 13 I found a very low fare ($65) from Buffalo to ORlando for my family of 4. I wasn't lucky about the return on September 28 so was back and forth between so many sites . I finally found a low fare (or so I thought) of $104 with Jet blue. I was thrilled overall. Now here's the problem:

I just realized I booked the second flight on the 28th from Buffalo to Orlando instead of the other way around. I know SO STUPID. I called Jet Blue and they will change the flight on the 28th so I can actually get home but they want another $585 (transfer fees and the difference in return flights).

I can find a cheaper flight on Southwest return (the right cities on the right day!) for $119..should I just book that? I would only be out $500 rather than $600...

HElp...

Christa

I am sick. Really..actually nauseous. I have saved for this trip and now....ACK!
