Jusr wondering where other people get the best deals on their u.k to Orlando flights. There are just so many companies and if anyone knows best ones, would be very grateful. We are supposed to be going in two years, but leaning towards next year if we can budget it, two years is soooo long, so any cheap flight ideas would be brill :)

BA have a flight sale in Jan. We got our flights in the sale just gone in Sept. Flights for April. Flight to New York and back from Orlando was £275 inc all tax. I think for Orlando there and back was £325. You have to have a bit of flexibility in dates. If you put in your ideal dates it will show 2 weeks before and after. It brings up the price and you can pick which day is the best price! I was well chuffed with our tickets.

we got all our flights, villa and park tickets thru a company called Mercury Travel at mercurytravel.com and they were brilliant. We could not fault them and we plan to use them next time (hopefully 2006) when we go.
Hope this helps

Thanks for your replies, sound good deals. Now the hard job of persuading the other half we can afford it! We are off to stay with family for a few days, so time to work on him. He wants to go next year as much as I do, he just dosen't realise yet :lol:

although Travel City Direct are not the most classy airline I find them the cheapest everytime, infact I just checked their website and they are nearly £1000 cheaper than Virgin for 2 adults & 2 children

We use mercury Travel as well, seem to be by far the cheapest and we had a great holiday last time. In Kissimee the Villa company was called Elite Vacations. Mercury always book Virgin as well.

I have to say, before I went to see family, from looking myself, Travel city direct seemed to be unbeatable. But I want to go half term and week after and they constantly say no flights available for that time now, which is why I came on here for other ideas. Thanks for all companies, once sorted out washing etc, will be on net with a cup of tea checking them out. :)
