Glasgow flight prices?

I'm now stuck with virgin since TC collapse, so I'm wondering what is the average price of a flight dibbers would expect to pay end of august into September with virgin direct to mco? I'm hoping for 550pp but think I may be being too optimistic lol... my dates aren't yet out so I'm looking for solutions to meet my budget, don't fancy indirect though

TUI also fly direct from Glasgow but I think they are midweek this year, so presume the same next year. Not sure pricewise we've always gone indirect from Glasgow as it has always been so much cheaper

Glasgow to Dublin then MCO, with Aer Lingus has good prices - at around that price.
Added bonus of clearing immigration in Dublin so total travel time won't be much different.

yes TUI fly Thuursday, TC was sunday so a better choice but as far as dates go into august, virgin fly Friday and Saturday- we want a weekend really if possible due to work commitments

Ill have a look but they have let me down before, cancelling the connection to Dublin which meant I then needed refunding and had to wait weeks for this!

Direct prices from Glasgow are a joke. We're flying with BA via LGW. Flying into Tampa and home from Orlando.

Done in two bookings to save more.

Flight Only Deal:

GLA - LGW 24/8 - £60pp including checked bags;

Fly Drive Package:
LGW - TPA 25/8
Ford Explorer Car
MCO - LGW - GLA 10/9

PACKAGE COST - £2026

Total Cost for 4 Adults £2226

We work this out at flights £461.75 pp for the flights and the hire car cost £419.

To have it all on one fly drive package the cost would have been £250 more expensive. Goodness knows why!

I really wouldn't rule out GLA-LGW-MCO or GLA-LGW-TPA with BA. Done both and would happily do them again
