People have been contacting us for months to complain that airfares to Florida are running high for dates this winter.
So we're not sure how long it will last, but flights today from Detroit to Fort Myers in January and February are as low as $207 round-trip, nonstop on Delta and Spirit. We checked a theoretical trip of 7 days and 30 days, and the price held up even when you were staying longer. In general, Tuesdays and Wednesdays look to be the cheapest days to fly, but there are exceptions.
One example? A Delta nonstop round-trip from Detroit to Fort Myers on Sunday, Feb. 1, returning Tuesday, March 3 is $215.12. You can't beat that. That rock-bottom fare catch is that you must agree to no seat assignment until check-in, no refunds, changes or upgrades. If you can live with that, go for it.
The nip is already in the Michigan air, so snowbirds should act fast.
