    I'm sure I've seen the Disney tickets at £166 but I think attractiontickets price match? What you need to do is Google all the UK websites, write down the prices for each website for the tickets you want, check which ones will price match and have no cc charges etc and then go with the cheapest for one type of ticket, say Disney, and see if they will price match on the Flexi ticket if it is more expensive.


    Thanks for that. I wasn't sure which ticket site was reputable though, the same as concert tickets ,i'm sure there are some touts out there who look good on the surface but then run with your money.

    Anyone recommend a good hire car company from Sanford airport then ?.

    Ok, for my trip in June, I still need a reputable car hire company which i can pick up & drop off @ Sanford Airport (Easycar came up with ok prices and Sanford as an option but when I clicked through Sanford wasn't available ?).Any ideas ?&Park tickets.Looking on http://www.attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk/ as recomended above, the 14-day-disney-ultimate-ticket @ £174 per adult & 4-5-park-orlando-ticket @ £119 per adult are the options to go for.1 Question, is the Bush Gardens a good park ?, i.e. worth it enough to upgrade to the Flexi Ticket Plus ?.
    P.S. Had internet problems for past 2 weeks and not been on here since, do I need to change something so my posts look normal (with returns in them) ?.

    http://www.usrentacar.co.uk/ certainly do use Sanford!

    Also their sister site has the tickets for the parks. Get the price from them then go to price match with http://www.attraction-tickets-direct.co.uk/. You should then get quite a bargain, and ATD are giving away a few goodies at the moment.

    VILLA NEEDED 5 to 15 April!
    Owner double booked us.
    Any help gratefully received, thanks.

    Have alook at www.thedibb.co.uk , it's a site for Uk disney fans and lots of Villa owners advertise their villas for rent. You can also post in the wanted section and villa owners will reply to let you know of their availability. We've just booked a villa through an owner using this site - it's a reputable site for all things Disney!

    hello everyone, we are going to disneyland in august, first time abroad, and was just looking for advice when it comes to driving in america, firstly i understand the cars are left hand drive over there so you still sit in the middle of the road, but how difficult is it driving over there, it is mainly the turning left and right that bothers me, i have read that at some lights you can turn left even if they are on red, are these easily identifiable, also does anybody know how long in time it takes to get from sanford airport to the kissimee district, any help, tips will be gratefully appreciated, many thanks Dave.
    Take every day as it comes!!

    I'm looking for the same info really Dave.

    I'm off there in June for the first time & first time driver in the US also.

    From what I have read, Sanford to Kissimmee is around 45 mins - 1 hour.

    I have been advised to just take it slowly, get used to the different view in the car, get used to the automatic and take it easy.

    Still not sure about the turning whilst on red the same as you though ?.

    Hi Dave , that's incorrect , it's when you are turning right that you can often go through red. There's information HERE that may be useful to you and -1-.

    It's really easy driving in the US and you'll soon get used to it. Have a great time :beer:
