Traveling from Sanford airport

PrincessFan · 07-21-2007

We just had Allegiant Air come to our airport and they are offering $89 each way to Orlando/Sanford airport. What a deal! Until I found out a little about the cost of getting to Disney from that airport.

Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?

We save about $75 dollars per airline ticket but then I found it was $200 just for transfers - and there is only 3 of us traveling this time. So, unless I can cut the savings, we'll fly into MCO.

Check Quicksilver. They have a link on the home page.

Thanks, I did check Quicksilver and that is around $200. . .probably going to fly into MCO and take disney's Magical Express. We used ME last visit from the hotel to the airport (we used a van service (9 of us on this vacation) so that we could stop at the store.

This next trip is only 5 days, so won't stop at the store.

That is a little scary-the fact that it essentially costs less to get from Maine to Orlando, than it takes to get from the airport to WDW.

I, for one, didn't even realize Orlando had another airport.

Well, if you put 200 people in a big van...

BUNCH of airports all around area. There are actually 3 Orlando airports. Plus one in Kissimmee. Orlando Executive and Kissimmee are general aviation airports.

Great News (for me anyway

) Last week, American airlines discontinued flights from our airport and Allegiant air came in. When I checked Delta yesterday, Delta had either dropped their price or added a jet service flight that stops in Atlanta and then onto Orlando for $218 pp plus tax/fees, so we booked. This is a great deal.

Prior, my choice was Allegiant Air or Delta on a 19 passenger plane into Logan Airport in Boston in the dead of winter (scary).

So, WE ARE GOING TO DISNEY - ITS OFFICIAL -- CAUSE WE'VE BOOKED THE FLIGHT - NO TURNING BACK NOW! (but the 2008 rates won't be out for a while, CM said probably within 30 - 60 days)
