What is your 2022 trip costing?

Following on from the 2020 trip costing thread that never happened. What is your 2022 trip coming out at?

I'll start:

2 Adults & 2 Children 7 & 5

14 nights from May 11th LHR to MCO

Flights and car hire (SUV) through Virgin Holidays Fly Drive - £2605

14 nights All Stars Movies and Disney Park Tickets direct with Disney - £3657

Aiport Parking - £60

Resort Parking - £150

Mousekeeping Tips - £55

Allowance for Spending and Food - £1750

Total - £8277 £2069.25/p

Excessive but worth it.

Looking at it another way..
Car hire for 14 days is generally £400 or so, so your direct flights are averaging £550 a person which is good.

Your park tickets would be roughly £425pp ? (I dont do Disney), so £1700 and this prices your accommodation at £2000 .. or £142 per night. That sounds reasonable for on site.

You have a car, so if off site, you would still have to pay the same parking price. Having the car and thus easy access to LBV, Walmart and IDive is a huge cost saving bonus that has to be weighed up against transfers and staying mainly on site.

Your airport parking at £60 looks very good.

Mousekeeping, well you would tip in any Hotel.. wouldn’t you?

Now, we take into account what you would spend, we’re you not in Florida..
Gas, water and Electricity.
Food at home for 14 days.
Daily carparking if working.
Weekly petrol.
Sundries.

If you subtract all of the above from the £8227, then suddenly it does not look so bad.

I reckon that you have a really decent deal.
Me? It’s largely irrelevant, because it is West Coast and only 2 days in Parks.

Thanks for showing me the cost in this differnet light. Helps justify it a little more and makes it easier to swallow. Not that I have anyone to justify it too that is, apart from the boss who will have to wait a few more years for her new kitchen

That looks alright to me, especially staying on Disney site.

Mines coming to 12k all in.
Flights for 5 adults, 2 kids and a 1 year old (3800), villa (2.2k), Disney and Busch/SeaWorld tickets (about 3400), a rental car (1000) and £2600 for consumables and spending.

Looks like we both have good pricing!

Who did you book this with please? That’s exactly what we’re looking to do but I’m getting quoted around £10k!

We will be going in August, Virgin fly drive is £6500 already so when I stop laughing and look for alternatives, Beach Club and tickets is a further £7k which includes tickets but no food - yet. So then it’s spending money £1 k, food £2k and bits and bobs. Bargain 🤬

Wow. If it goes ahead, our August this year cost 6.6k for 15 nights orange lake, standard suv, delight outbound and UC return.

Guess it shows how much more next year is 😳

Very little!

Reward flights so just under £1400 in tax.
Annual passes already paid for for our October '21 trip - £0
Accommodation on DVC points - £0
Car hire - £312 (£624 for a full sized split with friends)

We will buy Universal APs for '22 trip though, not going there in October as we have too much else going on. Universal have confirmed that we can buy at renewal rate so very happy with that.
