Faster flights to Florida £250 extra

[Dazed]

Yes! I already book Clubworld as I hate flying so anything that will shave off some time in the air would be priceless for me 😫

No.
That’s £1000 . I only average around £2000-£2200 for flights into and out of the USA including hold luggage.

That 4.5 hrs saved equates to 50% of the cost of my next set of tickets.
To earn £1000 to spend means that I must in fact earn £1300. That takes me 105 hrs or 2.5 weeks in my workplace in order to get 4 hours saved on my vacation. No thanks.

Besides, any aircraft that can fly at 1200MPH will be slim in cross section, limited in height, standard legroom and thus very claustrophobic. Anybody who does not like flying would surely sooner have 9 hours of relative comfort than 4.5 hours in a small box?
You ain’t going to get Dreamliner cross section, cabin height and space in a Mach 1.6 airliner. Take a look at Concorde and that is rather bigger than these proposed supersonic airframes.!

I just did a dummy flight with car hire for early May next year and for 2 club return flights and basic car hire it was £5,100 so at those prices I will holiday in Ruislip woods😁

Of course if the want to come with us, I’m not paying for everyone only me dh and my daughter, oldest son can drive them to all the theme parks while we shop, explore. Middle son can drive but won’t, she’s been to Disney Tokyo and Disney France anyway!

People pay £1000 extra for a lie down seat so £250 sounds a bargain to me

[welshmum]

No when paying for a family of 5 but if it was just me and DH, then yes

[Disneyfreaks]

Oooh yes definately ! I’m not a keen flyer so less time in that metal bird the sky I’d defi pay more for sure !
