Hi,

Just wondering if anyone has any tips on booking flights to Orlando? Do virgin have a January sale? Do prices generally drop in the new year? I was thinking of going April or May 2018. My daughter will be almost 5 and son will be 3.5 so we aren’t controlled my schools just yet. I’d prefer flying with virgin due to the 4 seats in the middle of the 74 so we can sit together. Do virgin charge for seat allocation?

Any tips on park tickets. We will probably go for 10 days so most days in Disney, one or two in universal maybe and a couple of days off around the hotel pool.

Cheers!

Typical Black Friday. Flights are £500 an adult for the same dates that were late £300s last week.

Barring some sort of quirk you really should have snapped up the seats in the £300's. Even £500 isn't bad. We went off-peak later on last year and just never saw anything below £750 for our dates - ended up going PE for a grand each as at least we felt we were getting something for the money.
