Many thanks.

Sadly my August bookings have always been a Miles Reward flight or a Combi flight. However they aren't available for 2018 at the moment and you can't do a Combi anymore.

However. VA PE flights Booked 21st October PE both ways for 2 = £2495.20.
They have only dropped to £2430 for the 2 so I am £65 out of pocket. hey ho.

But I have upgraded to UC on the way out for £81.56p!

I can give you a page of Miles type deals or I can give you the 'cash' pages for April & Oct if you want. Those 2 do show cash trends if it helps.

If you had a page for cash prices for flights in Aug that would be awesome?

We go on Tuesday 21st of August. Roughly around there/that time in August has always worked out to be the cheapest flights/ holiday for us

Sorry no. I have the April & Oct ones in full. The August one is predominantly circa £300 ish for PE as thats where I get the Reward seats and free upgrades. Not this year though!

I have a son with autism. I know that I can apply for a virtual queuing pass at Universal (not doing Disney) but I am also considering booking a hotel room to enable the express pass use.

We are staying very close to Disney. Would it make sense to book the hotel room for the night prior to our check in at the villa? Instead of using up a Villa night and driving / staying at Universal? I think the villa is 40 mins from universal.

I am SO sorry for all of the questions and if they've been asked shedloads of times previously.

Unless universal have changed since I last went Feb 17, the pass is anything under 30 mins you can join the express queue and you are normally on the ride within a couple of minutes and anything over 30 mins you get a return time. I wouldn’t bother with the express pass as that’s the queue you join anyway.
