Before you book
- Winter and school holidays are the busiest times for Michigan-to-Florida trips. If your dates can move, compare midweek departures.
- Families should check seating rules before booking. On Delta Main Basic, seats are assigned at check-in and travelling companions aren't guaranteed to sit together.
- Orlando Sanford (SFB) is a second Orlando-area airport mostly served by low-cost airlines; it's only an alternative if those carriers fit your plans.
