I'm looking at those now too. VT to FLL is only $89 each way! I hate to wait and have it go up! I can get a ride from there.
I am flying to FLL and home from Key West it was Just $302.
Can't wait!

Really Siked for some reason this year.
Wow - those are good prices. I stopped looking at flights because they were so expensive but I guess I better get on it. The problem is there is no way in hell I will get on a prop plane. The last time we flew into Atlanta then took an MD80 jet (bad enough) into Key West. Those flights are extremely expensive now so I think we might fly into FLL then drive. It will kill us on time but I see no other way. What airlines are those flights on - I am flying out of NJ/NY.

I just booked flying into FLL and out of Ft Myers $220 on Jet Blue ($89 each way but with the fees it's $110) Not terrible

Last year several of us met up at the Lorelei, maybe we can arrange that again this year. It's sad how excited I am already when it's still MONTHS away!! It will be so fun to see you again!!! I can't give directions etc, I wasn't driving but you won't lack for advice!

I am getting hosed because I have to fly out on Sunday so those flights in the afternoon are expensive.

I have to leave plenty of time to get back to FLL since we are driving.

True enough, this is also a vacation for me so midweek to midweek worked. Keep looking!!

I went 5 years in a row and I used to really look forward to it. Last year, even before the announcement that none of the Reefers would be there, I just didn't care one way or the other if I went. This year is going the same way.

Dumb question but does anyone fly direct from Newark to Key West. I know it would be mucho $'s, but was just wondering. We have always went to either FLL or RSW but now I see someone said that they fly MD-80's from ATL -> EYW so why not from EWR -> EYW? Now that would be sweet. Although I have some fond memories renting a convertable from FLL for the drive down, and I mean the drive down
