Why now
At $155 per person round trip, this fare is $8 below the typical fare on this route, which is $163. That's 5% less. We checked 12 offers and found fares from $155 to $214, so this is the low end of what we saw. Heads-up: the route dropped as low as $118 in the last 30 days, so this is a fair price but not the lowest we've seen. Prices include taxes and fees as found when we checked, and they can change. The nonstop flight takes 1h 10m, and Southwest has 7:00 AM and 5:45 PM departures at the same $155. In mid-November, typical highs are 74–77°F with lows near 60°F, mostly overcast, which is comfortable for long park days. For two people, a rough budget of $1,495 covers flights, the best-value hotel and $780 of spending.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park long weekend from Thursday to Sunday, three nights. The parks are the main event, with outlet shopping or a night out as extras. It suits a couple or two friends who want a quick, inexpensive getaway without a long flight. You set the pace: one big park day, one easier day and a morning on the river works well.
