I just booked on Jetblue!!!!!!!!!!!!

NokeyNose · 03-09-2007

We have been waiting to book for our May trip and I started to hear that the airfare rates were going to go skyhigh (no pun intended), so I started to frantically search for a flight. I found a great rate on JetBlue for $79 each way. The one downfall is that we are traveling in the night before, really late ( we won't arrive until almost midnight). BUt for $178 RT each person, I could not pass it up, everything else I was finding was $300+ !

Here is where I need your help.... we will need to stay one night without using our DVC points, where would you recommend?

Value Resort! When are you going? You can get it as low as $82 for the night. If you get in so late and don't mind staying off site the first night, why not try an Airport Area hotel? You can find one on Priceline fairly cheap...and you are leaving in the morning anyway!

A friend of mine stayed in the Hyatt at the Airport and LOVED it. A LITTLE pricey for just laying your head for one night, IMHO.

Congrats on getting your airfare Nokey! I would just go a value for your first night..doesn't really matter where you stay...only for one night.

Yes, if you are getting in so late, does it really matter where you stay? Perhaps off property, close to the airport would be best, then you could head over to Disney bright and early the next morning.

wow, congrats to that great rate. Value Resort, definitely. that way they'll transfer you luggage to the other resort. Can't get that if you're stayin' at a non Disney place
