Orlando & Florida - Questions & Answers (Part 1) *CLOSED*

Weggy

We've had Insure and Go for the past year and have no complaints, but then we've not had any need to make a claim.

We've had experience of their customer service though (they made a name error on the certificate) and they rectified that very quickly with no fuss.

Oh, and the main thing, they were the cheapest!!!!

Disney have extended the free dining plan to UK visitors if you book now for holidays taken from 12 August to 29 September 2007. You must book a five day or more stay onsite at Disney and buy minimum 5 day ticket for Disney Parks.

It appears from what I read on www.disboards.com that Virgin and First Choice are adding the free dining plan into their holidays where you stay onsite. Good deal if it fits in with your holiday dates

From what I have read Virgin will adjust your holiday to include this if you have already booked with them

Travel City Direct also doing this deal.

I just returned from a week in Florida and I am now looking to book for 2 weeks next August.

I am struggling to find a good deal or sites keep coming up with wrong amount of passengers, no results found etc.

Does anyone know how best to book for 2 weeks, middle of August 2007 for 5 adults and 5 kids (1 child being 13 years old).

Any help would be appreciated as I am pulling my hair out with the lack of availability found so far.

Call around the travel agents, try first choice, thomas cook, virgin, (all are doing the free dining promition) and others such as Sky Travel which can sometimes come u0p with a good deal, or nip over to https://www.thedibb.co.uk/forums where there are some independant travel agents that can help you get opsme good deals

Have you considered booking a large villa ? It may work out well on the pocket.

As for the flights, you may be a little bit to early as 11 months before seems to be the norm.

With TCD if I remember rightly you have to pay extra to pre book your seats. Don't bother if travelling with children as they have to sit by a parent.

Can anyone help with a good place to find flights to Orlando - or nearby for New Year - 2 adults + 1 child aged 12 .. course that probably means 3 adults.. best fare so far 1614 29/12 to 7/01.

My friend was seated apart from her husband and she was left with the kids, with TCD. She said "Never again", so I've paid up the £69 just to be sure.
