The flight I found less than an hour ago is gone! There's two seats on an American Airlines flight for $992

Wow. Thank you!! This would be perfect!!! I'm on it!!
Watching update from Miami-Dade. Airport still open and flights will continue until wind speeds reach 35 mph.
And the gentleman stated that Irma has slowed down some. But don't be lulled by that - continue to plan and evacuate.

Be sure to see my edit. Also, this price was one way. Allegiant has a way of getting their money on return flights.
Have a safe trip to WDW - hope it doesn't take too many hours to get there.

There should be federal regs. against stuff like this. It could mean life or death for some people.
Well, there used to be. The old Civil Aeronautics Board set both routes and airfares. But deregulation during Jimmy Carter's administration abolished it.

Actually... The Detroit airport is out by Dearborn, and Dearborn is home to the Henry ford museum and Greenfield Village. Basically, Henry ford's Disneyland which is a must see. Lots and lots of similarities with Early disney designs (Walt and Ward Kimball visited Greenfield Village prior to 55) including an operating steam train, model t cars you can ride in, horse drawn omnibus, "Main Street" working farms, and the Thomas Edison Menlo Park. The indoor museum is also a must see with the Rosa Parks bus, presidential Limos, etc.
Dearborn is one of my favorite places to visit right up by Disneyworld and Land.

The high fares are likely due to a pricing algorithm. If the flight is full, the price automically goes up until they reach the overbooking limit, at which point the flight becomes unbookable

Agree!!!
I didn't even check return.. I honestly know next to nothing about Allegiant.. but yours is the first post where the flights actually showed availability!!! Sent it to one of friends.. she's going to hopefully book it now.
Is everyone fairly confident that flights will still be leaving SoFla tomorrow?
You must have missed my post several pages back where I stated that my dad was an aeronautical engineer in the business for nearly 40 years. Learned a lot about equipment and carriers. That also included major crashes - my father would meticulously analyze them for days - told him he needed to join the NTSB when he retired. And stop scaring the poop out of my daughter....

I would assume so, since it should not touch down until this weekend.

Definitely did miss that. Must've been a cool job for your dad.

I'm hoping we stay calm and even if it takes a little longer, we arrive safely. I don't mind "reporting" from the scene as long as we have power and I'm not too rattledHave a safe trip to WDW - hope it doesn't take too many hours to get there.

Key West airport closed today. It's ridiculous. They should have sent MORE planes. Not closed.
