Booked 28th April - 12th May at Pop.

I’m surprised by the number of posts I have seen about high prices. I booked with BA, and I feel it was a very good price. Virgin and Tui we’re much higher though. I was really surprised by the difference.

Ours are missing 10 days too, we always swore we'd never pull them out of school but honestly we're at the point now where the family time is more important than missing school.
Granted we're a bit more iffy than you as our eldest is due to sit his mocks next year so we're taking a risk with him needing to catch up, or possibly missing them all together and needing to retake. But it's a risk we're willing to take now.
If they can still stay on top and not let their grades slip during a pandemic and being young carers for me, they can manage to miss 10 days imo.

I was the same this will be a first for us never gone over 4 days before.

Ironically will probably be the last as i doubt we will ever afford it again

Same Its taken us years to save up for this one and with changes in our circumstances and price rises it's not likely we'll be going again.

We've booked 5-19 May at SSR using our DVC points as a back up for if we can't go in September (I'm rapidly losing hope of that going ahead!). I was waiting to find out if September is definitely not happening before booking flights but now I'm starting to worry about the cost rising...

Our last trip was May 2019. I really liked May (previously only been in Sept/Oct), the weather was good and I loved Flower & Garden Festival at Epcot. There were quite a lot of school groups at both Disney and Universal due to Cheerleading comps though.

We're going in May too! 21st-3rd June at the Poly, so our son will miss the week before half term. Can't wait!

We booked via BA, as a package adding one night at universal Hard Rock hotel so we don’t pay in full until few weeks before.

We are booked April 21st - May 5th. We moved back from November and the price difference was alot, but this is our last chance to do a term time holiday for 3 years (other half can't take time off any later into the summer) so we've just accepted it!

We've changed our date for the premier Inn and then realised we'd be better off moving over to a different one as we're now flying with BA and not VA, so different terminal 🙄
