Sorry if this has been on here already, it's late and although I had a quick look, couldn't see it so thought I would post it.
It's probably going to be of use to no one but you never know?
My kids break up this Wednesday the 19th, dont' know why it's a Wednesday but it is. Thomson have some Orlando flights leaving on the 20th and the 21st for 14 or 11 nights. Departing airports are Manchester, Birmingham and Newcastle. Starting at £401 each for a family of 4, will be more per person if there's just 2 or 1 or ya? There isn't loads of availabilty but it's about half price compared to the week after (well perhaps not quite half price, but it's cheaper!) Not sure where the link will take you but the flights were there even if you have to search for them a bit :smiley:
If you are wanting to go, it's damn hot in Florida at the minute, even Floridians were saying it's hot! And the current exchange rate makes it more expensive than it was. Thomson flights go into Sanford which is still classed as Orlando, just an extra hour further north than international drive/Kissimee, if that's where you're looking at staying.
Won't be of use to many but might help someone

Good price. Does anyone know when the weather is bad there? Is monsoon season. Any experience of it?
Thanks

It's nice now, but when I went the first week of June for 2 weeks it was 2 weeks of rain, which ruined it, but hey ho! Lesson was learnt there. Looking at the forecast it seems ok this week.

Weather forecasts can't be trusted, we realised. So don't arrange a day of nothing just because rain is forecast. Our arranged day to Busch was forecast rain all the way up until the morning, then the rain was gradually pushed further and further back until it was 10pm and it hadn't rained at all!
We went for the last two weeks in June and rain only really properly ruined one day.

No monsoon season, we have always found May and November to be very pleasant weather wise.

If it's an Esta you need they come through almost immediately. Not sure about Visas though.

GREAT deal by the way.

Would get your ESTA first before booking just so your sure you won't have any problems, great price though

Having just recently got back from a Thomson holiday to Orlando, my one bit of advice is this: Don't accept the included hire car. It doesn't include the CDW and you will be charged for it. Works out a better deal to book independently! I got a bill for £320ish for a Ford Focus, when I could've paid £399 and had a Dodge Challenger (with included CDW) for 2 weeks instead!

Hot deal. Though ignore that dibb forum, who pays thousands for a holiday then has hardly has any money left so they carry around WDW in the heat bottles of water and sandwiches or fill up their suitcase with Robinsons and gravy granules etc.
