So this Comair/Delta aircraft only thing is really screwing me up... What other places fly into MCO other than CVG, ATL, JFK (that's on a comair/delta craft)? I can't find anything and the route map on deltas site has already combined the NWA routes and I can't read all those lines.

Well, there used to be a lot of Comair/DCI flights out of MCO to LEX, SDF, RDU, etc. But DCI and Delta has cut back big time in MCO.

Current Non-Stop Comair/Delta Destinations out of MCO: ATL, CVG, JFK, LGA, BOS, BDL, SLC, LAX.

Actually I'm pretty sure they are not the same. A buddy pass is much more expensive then a yield fare ticket. If you have a travel companion they pay the yield fare at about 3.5 cents a mile. A buddy pass (S4) adds a lot more in taxes and such.

I used BDL to RSW as an example since it came up in a post recently. Buddy is 62 and a yield fare of 46.
