I'm not sure if we should gamble this or not? We want to fly a nonstop flight from Denver to MCO in January. The cheapest ticket out of Denver is $311. There are 4 of us so that is a lot of money. We just found out last night that United reinstated buddy passes. We have enough for all of us, but I was thinking about buying a ticket on United or Frontier (they leave at the same time, but Uniteds ticket is $398) and have my dh and the kids fly standby? We have never had a problem flying standby before, but I have heard that it is hard getting out of Orlando? What have the loads looked like lately?
