Originally Posted By Mickeymouseclub I checked my Ding this morning and was disappointed. They did have $25 and $49 rates but places that would never get us to DL or WDW...I am sorry but I wonder why they would put an alert on DING.I will check tomorrow. Need a Disney fix.

Originally Posted By mickeynewe Wow! I can't believe $25 one way -- and its our travel dates! Just have to convince hubby to take a plane instead of driving -- he wanted to drive to Hollywood, but it sure beats the 8 hr. drive!
Originally Posted By Tinkerbell819 Did you talk him into flying, mickeynewe? The fares came up again today and I was actually thinking of changing our dates, but didn't go through with it. (I don't want the trip to be over as soon as the summer begins, but I SO want to save the $$$$$!)
Originally Posted By JAYDOE woohoo.... we got the ding we've been waiting for. Today we got a ding from Albuquerque to LAX.... $25.00 one way!!! We were hoping for $39.00 and boy did we luck out big time!!! We couldn't drive for that price, seriously! Disneyland here we come!!! :0)

Originally Posted By mickeynewe No luck -- he wants to drive into Hollywood one day. Ugh, that means a 7-8 hour car ride. *boo hoo*
Originally Posted By mickeynewe hahaha -- but, I forgot to mention --- What do you think the chances are he will regret that decision about 2 hours into the car ride with two teenage girls (daughter bringing her best friend) and an over-excited, Disney-fan wife asking, "are we there YET?" hehehe

After you sign up, a little rainbow icon shows up on the bottom right of your computer screen. If there is a little tiny white envelope on the corner of the rainbow, you right click on the icon and click on "Open ding" and the offers for that time period show up for the airports that you have chosen during the sign up process.
