Flights to Florida

I am looking for a reputable site to book flights to Florida in August. Direct flights seem to have soared in price from last year and we are travelling with 3 kids, one being a 2 year old, can anyone suggest any options?

  • Apart from Christmas August is the busiest time of year to fly anywhere,particularly Florida.
    It can also be VERY hot and VERY humid.
    If you're determined to go with young children then fly-drive or fly-hotel charters would be your best bet.

    Consider indirect

    Fares tend to be lower at the end of August rather than the beginning.

    Make it a two centre holiday and have a day in Dublin or Gothenburg first (put in DUB or GOT to your destination in https://www.kayak.co.uk and you'll see what I mean)
