I am currently looking at booking our airfare for our December trip. We normally get a relatively early flight (9am) and stay at a hotel at the airport the night before. Now we are booked at the BWI (deluxe room because there are six of us) from the 13th-16th. Moving to the BWV to a 2 bdroom from the 16th-21st on points. As I am looking at airfare, Airtran's fares are released, $99 each way, however the only non stop flights on our departure day are later in the day, or in the evening (I won't fly anything but non stop to Disney with four kids, too much of a pain). So, my mind starts working. If I booked the 7 pm flight the evening before (non stop) we would be at MCO by 9pm, we could get two rooms at a value resort and that wouldn't be much more than the room at the airport hotel (which is what we normally do). Would it be a huge pain with four kids and all the luggage that goes along with them to stay in the values a night and then transfer to the BWI? We have never stayed in a value resort before, am I going to have to deal with transporting all that luggage once we check in or are there golf carts available to help you. Also, would they transfer our luggage for us, we would not have a rental car, would be using a towncar to transfer from the airport to the hotel.
I could just wait until Southwest releases their fares (June ) because they have more non stop flights, including one that leaves Pittsburgh at 9 am, this way though we are there and settled in.
