I've made no plans for this yet, was gonna see what everyone else was thinking first. Tbh the show will be the same as every other show so we could all just go to florida for a holiday any time :lol:


Yeah, I agree, seen one, seen em all. I was only using it as excuse to go to Florida. If anyone is interested in hiring/sharing a villa let me know.

If we are going we will be taking the 2 kids with us. Won't be able to confirm anything soon though. How much does a villa work out at?

Emily, Alex and myself are going, like I said previously, if you want to share a villa it would be cheaper than getting a hotel. but we would have to act now as they do get booked up quickly. I was planning on going out on Friday 8th June, and coming back on the Sunday 17th June. Flights at the moment for those dates direct from Gatwick to Orlando, I know you would fly from Belfast, are £700 per adult return, and £600 per child.
Realistically, a villa is going to be about £1000 for a week, so it might be more becasue I want to go for 9 days inclusive. Park tickets (disney only) for 1 week is £250, and a child up to 10 years old is £200, if the kids are older than 10 then they have to have an adult ticket. These are all rough prices

and we'd need car rental as well, I know it's expensive, but well worth it, and once you are out there, food is dirt cheap, so you can dine quite well.

£1000 for a villa isn't too bad if a few of us go and split the cost. :)

I would think flights can bet bettered, £700 sounds a hell of a lot, even for April.

June then lol :lol: But yeah it still seems a lot. DCS last year was June and the flights were 450ish I think, but that was to chicago, I can't see why florida should be hundreds more though.

If you look at the flight paths, the planes actually fly down the eastern seaboard basically, so they fly past NY on their way to Florida. Hence more distance/$$. LHR-JFK is much cheaper than LHR-ATL

Transatlantic flight prices bump up greatly in mid-May once the US schools start to finish.
