Is this a good flight price?!

First time visiting Orlando here so I have no clue!

Flights are for next September, 15th and to return. Ł756 standard economy for two seats. Flying with British Airways from Gatwick. Will wait to see the prices from Virgin when they release, but is Ł756 a good deal? Are prices likely to get much lower if we waited or not?

If not, then we may aswell book to avoid prices increase.

Pros and cons of British Airways v Virgin also appreciated :-)

I would say yes, I booked mine today with BA too I can't see them going lower and virgin are silly money right now

For two people that looks OK and is alignment with what others have paid earlier this week.

Does this include your luggage ?

Difficult to see it going much lower however who has a working Crystal Ball these days ?

I have no issues with flying BA.

One downside with BA is the cost of advance seat selection however as you are outside school holidays I wound not see that as being a huge issue !

No way would I pay Ł700+ for seats. This seems really high. You have months to find much cheaper flights just keep looking and looking. Set up alerts with Skyscanner, kayak and check the ITA matrix it's a Google search engine. Good luck. I'm Sept 2021 and will be looking for flight Ł500 +.

It’s for 2 people.

It’s decent enough if you want it booked op. Ł400 would be my max price for September with a checked bag.

It's not bad to me and if it saves you the worry I'd go for it. We fly BA and I've always been happy with the service. Certainly cheaper than Virgin who we used to fly with before BA became more affordable.

We paid similar last year for BA direct LGW to MCO and I was really chuffed, we go soon and I’m still delighted with what I paid so I’d say yes, book it!

383pp with hold luggage seems the cheapest so far with BA for Sept 2020. We also fly on the 15th and have booked.

I always settle for anything Ł400 or under for September. I think it's worth it this far out and it means you have a peace of mind it's booked.

In addition, how much cheaper are you actually going to get it. I wouldn't say it's worth holding off to potentially save Ł40-Ł50.
