BA is the only direct flight. The Continental Bristol to Tampa via Newark flight has ridiculous layovers that aren't realistic travel with an infant. Virgin always has deals to Orlando, but can't find a way other than renting a car to get over to Tampa (no train, bus, etc). Air Canada does Heathrow to Tampa via Toronto, but only seem to have an overnight layover? First Choice does Bristol to Orlando direct, but again the dilemma of getting over to Tampa (my mom's not able to drive that far to collect us). US Airways has deals, but after a horrific flight experience never flying with them again (what with the almost dying and all...)
Thanks if anyone has any ideas or can help!0 -
