So far the JetBlue flights for November/December are only available on www.Kayak.com, but they should be available on the JetBlue site this afternoon or tomorrow.
I grabbed our Thanksgiving week fare down to MCO (we already had our return), and came up with $129.30 each one-way non-stop for Saturday November 18th. Sadly we're going to miss MVMCP this year (going to be at WDW the 18th-27th), but we'll get to it some day.

I just got off the phone with JetBlue and was told that fares starting December 3rd would be $299 one way from Newark to Orlando.
Bye Bye JetBlue!

She was wrong! The price went down to $217 round trip on flights from Newark to Orlando. You can only access these flights using Kayak.com.
Thanks for the heads up Pumpkinboy!

Glad to see you got a decent fare, or at least one you can live with.
I must say, we were pleased as punch to come up with a decent rate for non-stops, even better than we expected, for Thanksgiving week. A few months back I started pricing things on Delta, and found one-way fares >$500 for most days; amazingly, we came up with four tix for the MCO-BOS return leg of the trip for $87.80 each for Monday 11/27 (the same flight is selling for $228 now). But we had to keep waiting and waiting for the outbound flight to Orlando, with the best we had seen coming out at $229 each for the non-stop. Of course Yesterday, browsing my daily search on www.Kayak.com gets me my JetBlue fare of $129 each. So in the end, we have two one-ways on different airlines, but total price for the non-stop round trip is a relatively wallet-friendly $217 per person, about $100 less than we were expecting (shhh, don't tell the airlines tho :scary: ).
Interestingly, if I had waited and bought a round-trip ticket now, the round-trip non-stop BOS-MCO would be $397 each on JetBlue and $457 each on Delta (up to $537 for our preferred time). That $180 per person savings (times 4) proves to me that my daily flight-pricing obsession pays-off; that ought to cover plenty of other fun stuff, maybe our AP to PAP upgrades planned for November...
Now to figure out February's trip...
