I'm getting no joy looking for this for myself. :sad:
Anyone got any ideas where else I can look for cheap flights with or without accomodation to Orlando or Miami on 12th August?MobileSaver wrote:1- Prefer any London but willing to travel for great deal!
2- Prefer 14 nights but one or two less if great deal
3- Prefer 12th August but day or two later acceptable, must be back in UK on 27th Aug
4- Yes night flights acceptable
5- 2 Adults
6- don't care but breakfast included would be a bonus
7- Anywhere in Florida, prefer quiet
8- Prefer accomodation not in Miami
9- Good value more important than cheap
10- Ready to book now, girlfriend would be happier if I don't leave it till 12th August morning
11- Would be great if flights only available for under £500 but will pay up to £800 for flight or £1400 for flight + 3* or 4* accomodation
What we're actually planning is to stay in Orlando area for a few days, hire a car, then head down to say Naples or somewhere similar for a week and then back to Orlando area for the last few days.
I was thinking of booking my own 3* or 4* accomodation on Hotwire even if we got a silly priced package deal including say a 1* or 2* motel thrown in as it seems this could be a cheaper way of getting a flight over there. I'm happy for anyone to point out any flaws or the stupidity in doing this if appropriate. :rolleyes:Every generation blames the one before...

Have you been on OV before? its a very informal ship if that is what you want its nice aslo Island Star seems to be coming out better value and is gettign good reviews. I have been on OV but not the Star yet...lol
hi saveapenny,
hadn't considered the island star, but brought the brochure home and it looks good so far. We've been quoted £600pp leaving on 02/09 from stansted for a weeks cruise called "the Rivieras".
We just need a break to be honest and my OH has got cruising under his skin at the mo' - we'll see how he copes if he gets sea sick!
I thought he'd be a bit fussier about the ports of call, but it seems he just wants to go somehwere, switch off the mobiles and ignore the news for a week...

Thanks for those Saveapenny, unfortunately none had dates available for the 12th August or even a nearby date.
The best I've found so far is a flydrive (no accom) £509+fees pp on teletext = £1058 total. Quite frustrating when there were deals at £199pp for last Saturday! :rolleyes:
Dilemma now is do I wait until nearer the weekend for a better deal (presumably someone somewhere will be cancelling their holiday/flight for whatever reason or operators will reduce their prices if they have spare seats), book now at twice what I really wanted to pay or just decide to go elsewhere? Decisions... decisions. :think:Every generation blames the one before...

I am told that Venice in November is pretty miserable weather wise, but also very atmospheric, but I have picked up on hints that my girlfriend would love to here for her 40th (which I can't move unfortunately!).
If anyone really strongly advises against this then I will appreciate feedback, as I could have some influence over spending money more sensibly whilst also having a lovely city break!
So here we go!
Her birthday is 14th November. So we definitely need to be there on that full day.
I need to do it as reasonably as possible, whilst not making her feel like we are roughing it!
1-Leeds, Manchester
2-The best for a good deal. Short break.
3-Any around the 14th Nov to Include the full day of 14th in holiday.
4-Night flights acceptable, but much prefer not to be.
5-2 adults
6-self-catering preferred
7-quieter places
8-Don't want to be over the causeway thing!
9-Would like self catering with own access e.g. not in family home!
10-Central Stay close to St Marks square
11-£400
Thanks in advance.0 -
Am reposting as it has slipped down a bit or I may have missed a response as have not been online for a few days.
If anyone could help that would be fab.

8. Other factors - would be nice to maybe get tickets or a deal for a broadway show so I can suprise my sister
9. Price req by - by middle/end of next week
10. Max budget - ideally don't want to spend more than £600 each if that's realistic for that time of year.
Any help or advice would be gratefully received. Thank you0 -
celticsprite...600pp is way over the top for a weeks cruise oon either the OV or the Star you should be looking at no more than 500pp https://www.savensail.com at the minute are quoting 569pp for the Star but loads of cabins left so this will comedown
https://www.1st4cruising.com are qoting 536pp for the 9th September on the Star
They are also quoting 855pp for a 2 week cruise on OV on the 19th
https://www.savensail.com were offering an upgrade to balcony in July for 649 and I bet the same offer will be on once the kids go back to school if you are realy flexibale or can go at last minute wait if not see a price you can afford by going through telextext (page 227 ITV) and book the dates you wantIf you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel0 -
