    You will love it out there its fantastic i go for my 10th visit in june.

    Universal sometimes do 2nd or 3rd day free offers when you buy your tickets out there if that helps

    The best way to do tickets is buy your disney tickets before you go as they never do deals and get universal and sea world ect out there as they nearly always have deals on there tickets

    been browsing the net and i think i will go for....
    disney 14 day ultimate ticket £154
    5 park flexi ticked (14 days) £119
    so should be £546 for the 2 of us

    cheapest place i could find is from http://www.onlineflorida.co.uk//HomePage.aspx

    I want to buy all the tickets before we go so that our spending money is just to spend (dont need to keep money aside for tickets)

    P.S were taking about $4000, is that plenty for us to have a great time

    thanks

    This is the cheapest place for Theme Park Tickets at the moment. Reliable too. I bought our 14 day Ultimate passes for £153 each yesterday and best of all Discovery Cove Swim peak time for £132 each about a month ago. 5 park 14 day flex ticket is £116 : http://www.themeparkticketsdirect.com/ ;)

    Can't wait...we are going on the 26th May for 3 weeks...although I still haven't booked a villa yet!! :eek:

    I joined the Disboards about 6 months before we first went and got loads of tips from there too and this thread gives you lots of interesting little things about the Disney parks to look for :)

    Hi,
    I am planning a trip to Orlando with my husband and 2 kids aged 4 and 18 months aiming to travel in November 2007.
    I've a budget of £2500 inclusive of spending money (may be able to save alittle more spending money before then). I've got all the brochures from the travel agents and I am completely lost. I have never booked a holiday in my life let alone trying to do it with 2 kids!!
    We want to do some of the theme parks like Seaworld and epcot, not all (no point as they are too little). Can anyone help me with money saving tips and travelling with kids tips?
    I think I want a 2 bedroom hotel so we can put the kids to sleep and not have to tiptoe around in the dark from 7pm onwards!

    I am really feeling out of my depth and would love some help please....

    thanks

    We did exactly the same for 9 of us but didn't get any of the extras from ATD. When I queried this with them they said it was because they had price matched it.

    Just got my confirmation today and the rucksack is showing as an item on there.

    Calx,
    When I was booking last year on budget I DIY'ed it. Booked the flights in the Virgin Sale and booked a hotel on international drive direct. If your not sure how to do it there is a thread on here where you ask the travel "experts" to have a search about for you to get the best deal.
    Have a look at all the parks and sum up what is suitable for your little ones, then google orlando park tickets and see if you can get deals on the parks you want to go to. If your struggling PM me and I ll have a look for you. (on maternity leave got time on my hands!!)
