Hello everyone. I have a few questions about our Disney trip. I hope you don't mind. My family and I are doing the Land and Sea package on November 9th to the 16th. We'll be at Disney World for four days and then the Disney Cruise. We decided to purchase the air program through Disney but now we have a few questions.
We will be flying with US Airways which I am now hearing terrible things about. (I'm going to be crossing a lot of fingers and toes and hoping nothing too terrible happens.) We are leaving from Ottawa at about 6 a.m. and landing in Pittsburgh just before 8 a.m. Then our flight from Pittsburgh leaves at about 9:30 a.m. and we are supposed to get into Orlando just after 11:30, I believe. When we land in Pittsburgh are we going to have to go through customs? What about our baggage? Will we need to collect that as well or will it go straight on to Orlando? I'm also hearing about long horrible line ups at check in. We only have about 90 minutes until the flight leaves and I have this fear that we aren't going to make the connection. Then what? I don't think I want to spend the night in the Pittsburgh airport (although I'm sure it is a lovely place and I'm certainly not knocking Pittsburgh) As it is we were only able to confirm 3 seats (not together) for the flight to Orlando which of course is causing me more stress and worry.
So if anyone out there can help me out, I would really appreciate it. It's been a long time since I've flown anywhere and I can't quite remember how it all works. Actually I've never flown anywhere out of the U.S. Also, if anyone can tell me something not horrible about US Airways, I would really appreciate it. Thanks for everything! I'm trying not to stress too too much.
