Hi all
We go in 9 days
Any must have offers you can recommend?

I've tried groupon a few times over the last month or so doing what you've said with both a credit & debit card but still won't go through! Any suggestions? I've used them in the past no problems. PayPal doesn't work either, thanks

We went to Texas Steakhouse and it was great
best meal we've had in Orlando
And it is the wifes 40th next week

Great, thanks.

Checked earlier and our flights are eligible for the free baggage deal, it's actually on Thomsons website if you look really really hard for it. I called them up as I haven't yet added bags to our booking and nope Thomson's won't honour it! They are saying it must be added at time of booking, my husband had tried to add the code at booking but website wouldn't accept the code, so he didn't add the bags with a view to sorting it direct, he's only just told me this. I'm waiting on a manager calling me back tomorrow. Any ideas whether they should honour the deal as they're still offering it as nowhere on the T's & C's does it say must be added at time of booking. Thanks all

TGI Fridays, IHOP and Outback Steakhouse good for vouchers if you register online. Pretend your birthday is on while you're there too to get birthday vouchers. Anyone know how to get cheap Busch Garden tix?

We're just off highway 192 right now
Looking for something local for dinner tonight
Longhorn or Fridays I think are front runners atm

I go May the 19th from Manchester cannot wait for volcano bay

Off out to Orlando in May myself, first time with kids though... some of these deals will be getting bought I think!

We were planning on buying Disney tickets out there (as the deals here cover multiple parks, we are only doing magic kingdom) anyone know of a decent way to buy single park tickets for Disney?

Anyone seen any good (or better) offers on Universal Studios yet? Face Prices on tickets are insane!!!

Are there any good apps to download once I'm out there like voucher cloud in the uk? Going for the first time in October with my 3 princesses and my wife. (Excited to be out there for Halloween too! See it done properly)

Can I ask which Orlando Facebook do you use please ?

Thanks:D

Glad I went last year, the Disney/Universal combined tickets have now gone up by a third, now costs around £2300 for four tickets (age 10 and over), paid £1750 last year. Next year will be worse, £2680 on one ticketing website, but Universal have yet to release next years prices, so they are pricing it incase they increase prices dramatically. Bloody Brexit!!

voted cold because im not currently planning another trip there anytime soon and im jealous

Currently it's the 25th of May.

It will be absolutely rammed with tourists and locals alike, so just avoid the weekends for the best bet of slightly lower crowds. They have wristbands you can use to get a queue spot, which will alert you when it's time to return, so at least you shouldn't spend too much time in line if it works :smiley:

We're going on the same date, do u know when the universal water park is going to open? I thought it was early June, so thought we'd miss it.

Hehe me too. Apparently there are good sales at the malls on Memorial weekend but I hate packed shops. Are you doing Disney?

If you're out and about, look at the leaflet racks and get the coupon books, leaflets and guides. Basically if they're a thing in Orlando and you've not got a coupon (except the big parks) you've not looked hard enough. The coupon books have some great deals if you want to eat cheap, I recall 4 of us eating at Cici's pizza for about $10

I'm going on the 19th May and the parks class it as peak time (for some odd reason).
But I've heard it still quiet. Looking forward to going to the new Universal water park :smile:

Don't forget to visit restaurant websites and sign up a week before you go, they usually send you vouchers for a free starter/pudding or money off.

T&Cs for FREEBAGS

Valid on any Thomson flight only booking to Florida departing between 01 May 17 and 30 June 17. Some exclusions apply.

Or me from Manchester :disappointed:

FREEBAGS <<<< doesn't work on a flight from birmingham :\

Have you ever been in May over Memorial weekend? We have been before however not in May normally April and wondered what the crowds are like at the parks and shopping.

thats the one, thanks :smiley:

You mean this one,

on a side note, Senor Frogs is AWFUL I wouldn't even pay $1 for that but heat added because there are some good deals :smiley:
I'm waiting for the Dunkin Donut $10 for $5 voucher again :smiley:

Thanks OP, I'm going out there this year and staying at Parc Condominium on International drive for a couple of nights before heading out on a road trip. I see the pool and beer deal place is right nearby....hmmm...how to tell the missus?!

Thanks for sharing

Thanks so much for posting this, we're off there end of May for the first time, so this has been really helpful.

Any flight deals for October time?

Cheers, looking at going out and this will help so much.

We're off to I-Drive at the end of the month (my 17th visit to Florida!) so I was interested to read this post.

Have already got my King's Bowl Groupon voucher. Love it there, perfect for a rainy afternoon! And they do pretty awesome cocktails too!

I have also purchased an Orlando Eat & Play card (£12 from Attraction Tickets Direct). We love breakfast at Denny's and this card saves 20% there (amongst other places) so will soon saves us money.

I also tend to sign up to favourite restaurant website clubs/newsletters. They usual send a voucher for a free appetizer or dessert (often short term validity, so time wisely).

I cannot wait for our trip! Thanks for this post OP, making me even more excited!

I want to go because... well why wouldn't you? The other half wants to go for... BIG FOOD :smile:

Fantastic, found some cheap return flights to Orlando and a code FREEBAGS for... well, free baggage. Popped it in your OP. Now... when do I want it go? :smile:

Great thanks. We are heading out in august so will keep an eye on the US groupon

Just a few vouchers (aside from the standard booklets) I've bought ahead of my trip next week that may be of interest, particularly for those on i-Drive - hope this post helps someone!
