So our flights are now released and we were originally on a 1pm flight but Virgin have changed the schedules so we are now on a 11:20 flight meaning we get into MCO at 16:15 which works out so much better. Won't be rushing to get to the hotel and then eat and sleep.

We can probably sneak in the trip to Planet Hollywood at Disney Springs to collect our magic bands and maybe eat there on our first night? Was also hoping for a Walmart trip too!

329 days to go

]So out of curiosity I contacted Virgin to see if they could give me my booking reference number as TA said it would be 6 months before.

Well they only gave it me!



We are on the 9.20 flight! I'm so happy, makes things so much easier on the other side! Hubby however is not impressed with such an early get up!

Seats are chosen and we have the back three rows of 2. I prefer the back as a nervous flyer and figured we could recline without upsetting anybody.

We love the earlier flight it means when you arrive you have time to settle in and even enjoy a little trip somewhere before bed! Great planning look forward to reading more!

Just booked the airport lounge and parking. We were going to get a return taxi but I found a great link through money saving expert (moneysavingexpert/redir/026d738a) that made parking £90 for the drop and go so we've booked that twice to be able to take both cars. I feel better having the cars at the airport anyway after previously having our house broken into and hubbys car was stolen.

All we have left to pay off now is the balance on the holiday (£3945) and the balance on discovery cove tickets (£730), both of these are due Feb/March time next year. We've also got spends to save, hoping we will have around £3500 to convert to dollars.

The final thing I've still not booked is Travel Insurance. I've found a really good policy for around £390 for all 6 of us (including pre existing conditions for 2 people) but if we book when the US is on the amber list, and they were to go green then amber again, we wouldn't be covered. With that in mind, I am going to wait until they go on the green list to book the travel insurance, because I am certain they will before next May!

How exciting, but sorry you had to move your holiday. Hopefully we'll see plenty of people fly before us in good time. We were moved to the 9:20 one, is that the one you are on? We are in rows 48, 49 and 50 right at the back.

Was disappointing having to move the holiday but fingers crossed things will settle down before May
