Flydrive - good price?
 

Pricing up to go to LA during February half term next year. 2 ad and 2 kids (13 & 11), with group F car is coming out at £1500 with BA - which is during the half term holiday. I have no idea if this is good or not, as only been to Orlando previously. These are direct flights, LHR to LAX , 15-22 Feb 20. What do people think? Thanks.

The airlines with 330 day release haven’t opened the return date yet, so it’s hard to compare, but it seems like a pretty good price.

That’s a really good price inclusive of car, insurance etc. We’re going Heathrow to San Fran, LA to Heathrow with 7 seater for 15 nights in the Easter hols, £420 each. Enjoy the planning. Hardest part I’m finding is which bits to cut out!

Thanks, when I booked the price had dropped to £1390 - which i’m pleased with. It’s the accommodation that’s daunting me now!

If you confirm which stops you’re doing I can give you a run down of where I booked ..we’re a family of 5 so knew we’d struggle to find larger rooms etc unless I booked early.

Our trip looks like this atm

3 nights San Fran
2 nights Monterey & Carmel & Big Sur
1 night Yosemite (guided bus tour to maximise time there)
Long drive to Vegas via Death Valley
6 nights Vegas, Mandalay Bay (incl heli GC trip)
3 nights Disney/Anaheim (not fussed about LA)

I paid £1400 this year for 3 adults 1 baby and a minivan for 21 nights inc insurance that was Heathrow to Lax direct / return

Currently planning on:

2 nights Burbank - to do WB studio tour, Hollywood sign, Griffiths Observatory and Chinese Theatre/Walk of Fame

5 nights Anaheim to do Disneyland.

DH (who doesn’t normally get involved) mentioned staying in a Disney hotel for the Anaheim stay. I’ve started to look at renting DVC, and the nightly price is around £250 for the Californian hotel, which didn’t seem too bad.

Thanks
