Honestly every time someone posts a good Orlando deal on here, the usual comments come flying in, need to add this need to add that!
You are voting on whats included in the OP's deal, and that's all.
If you choose to add or do extras once you get there that's entirely up to each family.
In terms of cost it's all about being savvy and if your viewing this on HUKD chances are you already are!!

If your looking to book this deal on a whim because of the cheap price then enjoy Florida on the cheap and budget wisely, if your wanna go all out then save and budget in advance, don't kill the OP's deal before it's even got off the ground!

With that bloke recently winning that court case about taking his kids out of school, I wouldn't be surprised that these fees will not be forced anymore.

Great deal, but Florida is a super expensive holiday once you add park tickets & food. We used to go twice a year in the good old days, & prices for food had gone up a lot last time we went. The car parking at the Disney parks & Sea World had gone up to $15 per day as well. Not trying to be negative, but you do need to factor all those things in, when pricing up a holiday to Orlando.

Damn. Wish I didn't vote hot now. This clearly changes everything.

Do you think this deal will come around again at roughly the same date this year?

U can actually park for free at disney if your savvy. Only works for the magic Kingdom car park, but you can catch the monorail from that car park to the epcot car park if needed.

You go into disney through a back road that leads you to the Disney hotels, then follow the road around from there and it brings you into the car park just after the toll booths. If anyone wants directions email me and I will send you a map. Was there last year and it saved us a fortune in parking. Adds about 10 minutes on to the journey but well worth it if you plan on going to the park a few times.

Seems like a good deal, but not sure I'd want to step foot on a Dreamliner to be honest

​Unless you refuse to pay.. We now have case law!

If I hadn't just posted my son's passport off for renewal I'd be booking this you couldn't get the flights for that price and you can book accommodation cheaply enough if the hotel is not up to scratch.

Iv'e corrected it just for you! lol

good price - we rented a villa - was lovely - swimming pool - invited by neighbours to bbqs - glad we did as we couldnt have gone to parks every day - too tiring - best looking around for discount tix when in restaurants etc - daily ones

Damn. Wish I didn't vote hot now. This clearly changes everything.

It's THOMSON NOT THOMPSON!

Depressing that people still think going to vile places like seaworld is a good idea.

I wish the government would stop interfering with PARENTS. There is far more to an education than just school, holidays can teach them loads about food,culture,travel etc - hell, it might even make some of them want to work in the travel industry and what about spending time with their hard working parents huh?? I never used to see my dad, he was a bus driver and worked shifts.

I was taken out of school to go to Corfu in 82 and Spain in 83 (at 13 and 14 yrs old) and it has given me a lifetime love of Greek culture and history.

I'm now 46, I don't work, live in a nice 4 bed detached house in a nice area and my mortgage will be paid off next year - those 4 weeks don't seem to have had any negative impact on my life whatsoever.

Oh, and great deal....did Florida in 97 and 98 but don't really fancy it any more.

I hate rides and sea parks and celeb film stuff so this would be the perfect craft beer holiday for me!

Swim with Manatees at Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge (use Riverventures)
Visit winter park and take the boat tour through the connected lakes
Hire a private instructor and shoot at a gun range
Visit the Kennedy space center
Use Google, it's not hard

Your anger may be better directed at the government.

Wow, parent of the year award right here :smile:

Would love to take the kids but wouldn't want to do the parks because you think you won't like them.


They are fabulous by the way

My heart sinks when I'm in a departure lounge and there's loads of kids waiting - during term time. Love how they constantly kick the back of your plane seat and cry all the way. Why parents spend thousands on holidays the kids won't even remember is bizarre

With that bloke recently winning that court case about taking his kids out of school, I wouldn't be surprised that these fees will not be forced anymore.

I agree - they have already said that they're going to change the law to counter the court case victory, but suspect until that happens (and there's a chance they won't actually change the law), they will not enforce the law as it stands - the victory for that guy will really make them think again - the victory has set a precedence and so would suggest no schools/local authorities will take the risk of incurring costs on a case when they will likely lose.

We took our kids out of school 9 times at least, but their attendance was otherwise excellent and we really do not think their education suffered. They're both now at uni having got really good A-levels and they're doing brilliantly at uni so I say make hay whilst the sun shines!

You've made a fair point - why go to Orlando if you're not going to the parks? That being said, there is so much more you can do in Florida. Driving is easy and relaxed so you can easily go further afield and even stay a few nights elsewhere, using the Orlando hotel included just as a base.

But even with the cost of the park tickets, this is still a fantastic deal. We've been 9 times and each time the flights alone cost us between £2,000 and £2,700 for the 4 of us (Virgin), plus add on accommodation, it came close to £4,000. Now that was for a villa (we only stayed in a hotel the first time) so a bit more expensive as we always went for a big villa, but nevertheless the cost was three times what this costs WITH a hotel, and the last time we went was 2010 so with inflation this deal is even better!

Adding Disney and Universal tickets will take the cost up to around £2,700 and another £500 should cover food and drinks. So all things being considered, somewhere between £3,000 and £3,500 will get you two weeks in Florida, Disney and Universal parks for 14 days and food and drink! Add another £250 or so for a car if you wish.

Decent airline, decent plane (which I think has entertainment system on board) and a bargain.

As somebody else has said, visit 'theDibb' website for everything you could ever wish to know. And don't forget ESTAs!

Fantastic deal OP!

Well, they're bound to say that aren't they. Take no notice.

Don't go to Sea World.

This is a fab price, we are going for the 3rd time in Aug and our flights were more than this alone. For other stuff to do, we only plan on the 3 park pass (Busch, aquatica and sea world) for £91 pp, incl parking. The rest of the time, we plan on going to state parks, beaches, boat rides, kayaking, a rodeo etc.
If anyone else has good ideas on more activies, please share!

good price for flights & hotel.
parks, parking, etc. is optional. So no idea why people are moaning about that!

$20 for parking now , and theres plenty of things to do without going to parks , which do cost alot .

For those who would be Disney first timers. Five minutes from Disney means from the edge of property. That place is the size of a city. It can take 20 minutes to get from one park to another. 10 minutes to get from the car park to the entrance turnstiles. Those times are on a very good and quiet day too. This looks like an amazing price for a holiday to there. If you are gonna do any of the parks, buy your tickets over here before you go. As a seasoned Orlando visitor, never buy your tickets over there they will cost you a lot more.

Could i take my girlfriend out of school(shes a teacher) ? :sunglasses:

I am a cast member at WDW, this hotel is really close to Disney Springs where you can then transfer onto a free Disney bus to the parks. Only a 20mins walk max to Disney Springs from this hotel.

I honestly think it will go the other way and the G'ment will give more power to local Authority to enforce this. Not trying to be negative but just got a hunch. Get away with the 60quid fines while you can imo

You can, but 2 days at Disney and 2 Days at Universal would cost more than 14 days at both!

Hi apologies if already posted ( I am on the Scottish July trail) Quidco 4% plus 'Florida' code for £60 pp off

I would love to take my kids here , but hate the idea of going to a theme park for 2 weeks . can you just buy day to day tickets to check out the theme parks ? would rather mix up the holiday doing other things too. this looks an amazing price , cheers op. :smile:

I've paid double this price for flights for 4 over Xmas this year!!
so extra hot from me :smile:

Good deal tho I have stayed at the hotel and it's OK for sleeping at but that's it. It's right on the freeway and Disney is not 5 mins away. The shuttle bus fills up quickly. If you are looking for a base to get your head down at night and you drive then this is a great deal !! Definitely a no frills hotel

hot deal if you dont have kids OR you can pull them out of school! I am still waiting for this type of deal for the summer holidays!

Probably so cheap due to the Flakka craze out there!

Usually I would whine about school terms and the law etc..buy hey its such a good deal and this law is so draconian that i am giving a hot thumbs up.

during term time... not so hot if you don't want to take your kids out of school for a fortnight.

This is a great deal but can never ever seeing me being able to spend £5k up on a holiday... :disappointed:

Is your caps lock button jammed down for a reason? Other than that - hot deal.

Best part of Orlando is the road out of there :smiley: Florida has much more to offer :smiley:

Good find. :smiley:

Red hot deal!

I agree the parks are expensive, indeed, I discussed with a friend recently how much a two week trip would cost for a family of 5 including all the parks etc. He said he expected to pay £10,000. I told him he could easily do it for less than £5000, if he shopped about and booked park tickets before he went etc, and at this price I would say you could do it for under £3500. Whatever way you look at it, it's still an amazing price!

This.

Went last year with my two boys aged 9 & 11. We had an amazing time but all in it was around £6-7k for us so not an annual holiday on my salary.

We decided to do a park focused holiday. We will go back and do a more balanced holiday next time as I'm told it's not just about the parks.

Amazed to see so many young children asleep in push chairs missing all the action throughout the day.

My two boys were tall enough to go on everything at the parks without mum and dad. We all like rides but definitely consider this when thinking about going.

Another gem we found was the park tour planner. Saved us lots of queueing time and the only day we didn't stick to the plan lead to grumbling children!!! The Disney fast pass thing needs to be understood before you go as it is extremely useful coupled with the park tour planner.

Great deal, but Florida is a super expensive holiday once you add park tickets & food. We used to go twice a year in the good old days, & prices for food had gone up a lot last time we went.

I know, just kidding :wink:

+ 3 x £60 fine for out of school for a holidays :wink: (subject to not having triplets less than 4yrs old :wink: ) ?

hot deal!
