- Shift your departure by one or two days — midweek departures on this route are consistently cheaper than Friday and Sunday.
- Book four to eight weeks ahead. Last-minute fares on NYC to MCO routinely run double the advance price.
- Compare all 4 carriers rather than checking one airline's own site.
- Avoid the weeks around Christmas, Easter and mid-June to mid-August if you can; both airfare and park crowds peak.
- Sanford (SFB) serves budget carriers and can undercut MCO significantly.
- Book park tickets before you fly — gate prices are higher and popular dates sell out.
