Disneyland Florida

Options
Looking for a bit of advice. Im intending to take two children and two adults in December this year. Any recommendations of apartments etc dont really want to stay in a hotel. Would like somewhere with a sitting area and kitchen.

What is the cheapest way to book the holiday?

Also any ideas on the cheapest place to get Disney tickets etc.

Can I fly out from the city airport or international? Some people have mentioned that going from Dublin is cheaper.

Any ideas would be grateful thanks.

    if you google kissimmee villas to rent you should find many villas with own or shared pools available at reasonable rental - 3 bedroom houses with all the mod cons - much better than hotels. I assume you are planning on renting a car?

    Flights - only way to find out is to start doing a few searches - with london,manchester, glasgow and dublin departures - and compare - remembering to factor in the costs to get to the various airports.

    Hi,

    Walt Disney world in Florida is an amazing place! We have gone every year since 1998 and adore it!! We go again in 2 months with our 20 month old little boy.

    We also love the shopping, restaurants and other attractions that Orlando has to offer. Disney is just one part.

    I recommend a villa as they are generally 3/4 bedroom with ensuites and private pool. We pay around £1200 for 2 weeks in a villa however you may get slightly cheaper in December.

    We go Virgin Atlantic and either go from Glasgow, gatwick or Manchester direct. We often use virgin holidays who can provide the whole package including attraction tickets. If you book everything together we sometimes manage to get a discount on the park tickets from virgin too.

    This year we have booked tickets for the new Legoland and universal studios/islands of adventure. We had non expiry disney tickets so we will use them this year.

    Hope that was helpful :)
