We got to the airport around 5pm for the 7:10pm departure to MCO. The airport was actually very busy for SYR. B6 had our flight to MCO and flight 75 headed to JFK before us from the same gate, AWE had a flight to CLT, BOS and DCA and AA had a flight to ORD. So the security line was actually kind of long but jetblue has extra speed if you purchase extra legroom to your flight which we did and this was new at SYR from the last time i had flown to JFK 1 month earlier so it was good that B6 added that, it will be really good for the peak time at SYR which is 5:30-7:30AM every airline has at least one flight most have more then two.
The SYR airport is being redone and is done now and its done now but in march it wasn't so it was kind of laid out differently the check in counter had been moved for construction and had recently been moved back to its original spot.

One the JFK flight was gone it was time for our flight.
Our plane arriving as flight 664 from MCO the redsox plane!! it was funny the gate agent made an announcement that we would be flying on the redsox plane and that we might have to cancel our flight because the people working the flight where diehard Yankee fans and wanted nothing to do with the plane
Time for boarding
on this flight there where 16 wheel chairs we where laughing with the gate agent because it looked like a funeral procession just instead of cars it was wheelchairs, and then he said if you think this is bad i got a call about an hour ago from a friend of mine at JFK and he just put 45 wheel chairs on a flight to PBI, im glad i was not on that plane it took about 20 minutes to get like 8 people on the plane imagine 45.
Gate 15

After a rough climb out through some heavy snow clouds we reached the tops of them at around 16,000feet

about 40 minutes out of MCO the pilots took there break from the flight deck.
After a smooth flight and down the east coast we began the descent into MCO it was very steep with the spoilers up for alot of it , it was also very quick and withing in we where on final.
