When Will Feb 2017 be available?

We are looking to go back for 10 days in February 2017. I thought we would have to wait until next March to book.

A poster in another thread said they had been given a price for Feb 17.

Is there somewhere I can check availability online? When is the best time to start looking at prices and options?

Not online they only show up to Dec 16. Is there anything to be gained from booking early? My plan was to do diy and use skyscanner and wait for a flight sale. But the thought of getting something conformed early is inviting.

If you get their brochure that will give you an idea of prices for early 2017.
I am using KAYAK to check prices , but again they do not go into 2017.
You have to decide on what price you are prepared to pay and if you get under that then that is great. I am checking prices based on 23rd March for 3 weeks over easter 2016 and a flight to Miami with Virgin in Premium Economy is showing £881

Are you wanting to stay onsite? If so, you would be waiting to see if free dining or similar offers are released in April next year, for 2017 holidays.

We booked for Easter 2013 with Virgin as soon as the prices were released and that was around November 2011 so I would think late this year you should aee some packages.

We booked for February this year with Travel City Direct at the start of June 2013. It was always higher than what we paid whenever i went it to check prices. ( Thankfully )

We have just booked Easter 2017 through Virgin Holidays, wanted to get in quick as there are 15 of us going and want to make sure we are all on the same flight!

Price wise it seemed ok, I priced up the same holiday on their website for last two weeks in October as a comparison and our holiday came out quite a bit cheaper.

I had no idea you could book so early?! I am maybe being a bit daft but how can they sell flights etc this early? Surely flight schedules etc not available for 2017 yet? X
