Hi,
I'm trying to get the cost down of my upcoming trip as we've gained a couple of extra days, so spending and food etc has gone up a bit for the holiday.
25/11/08 to 12/12/08. Staying in a private villa so accommodation is not required. Four people, all adults.
From any london airport to orlando (international or sanford), must be direct flight.
I've been quoted £433 per person for the flights by Expedia and Virgin direct from LGW to MCO. I don't mind who i fly with as long as meals and drinks are included and the cabins have seat back tvs in economy.
Car Hire - the cheapest i've been quoted is £463 by uscarhire.co.uk. I'm specifically after a Premium SUV 7-seater, as this gives us a huge useable boot space with the third row of seats flat. We take lots of luggageAll taxes, charges and insurance is included, initial tank of fuel is not, but we always return the car with a full tank so unless this can be supplied for £20 payable in this country, not worth worrying about.
A room big enough to take four adults for one night at gatwick in the hilton or sofitel would be a bonus if it's under list price, but not a requirement as it's only a consideration at the moment. Two adults share a bed (myself and wife) and the other two are friends only, so two single beds required for them.
Any help would be gratefully received!!!
Thanks!
