A big hello to you too Richard! Thanks for your question. I'm always on
the hunt for the best deals, so you came to the right girl! I book our
Disney resort through the
Walt Disney World website. I check regularly for deals, like the awesome free Disney Dining Plan promotion that's on now.
AIrfare is a different story. As you know, it's not always the easiest
to get cheap fares from Canada. I always start by checking
Expedia first to see what's available, and then I usually book either through them or through the individual airline.
WestJet
has offered seat sales from Ottawa as well, but check their site often
as they seem to sell out quickly. If you're not going in the dead of
winter, you might want to consider flying out of Syracuse, New York. It
is a three hour drive from Ottawa, but the savings are often worth it.
Last summer, my daughter and I both flew for under $400 in total, which
saved us more than $400. In addition to checking Expedia for Syracuse,
try
jetBlue, as they often have
great deals and direct flights to Orlando. Lots of nearby hotels offer
parking and shuttle service to the Syracuse airport, or you can park at
the airport for $6.50 a day.
I hope this helps, Richard. Write back if you have any other questions. Thanks for visiting the Moms Panel!!
