I absolutely love road trips, and am usually in favor of driving anywhere we go. I think that being on the road, trapped in close quarters together can be a great bonding time for families. BUT, this year we will be traveling with our two foster sons, both of whom are infants (they will be 21 months and 7 months when we go), so I'm checking into flying instead, just to make the trip shorter and thus more enjoyable for them. We'll drive if we can't get a good deal on airline tix though.
So what is the best site for getting deals on flights? Any chance that a family of six (two adults, two six year olds, and two under two) could fly from Louisville, KY to Orlando roundtrip for less than $550? That's what we have budgeted for gas, one night motel stay along the way, and spending money for the drive down and back.
We may end up driving anyway, just so we have our own car when we get there, for trips outside the resort and for driving to parks when we don't want to wait for and load the gang onto a bus. But, I like to fully check out all my options.
