All my flight options seem to have shot up... I don't know if this is a deliberate thing before black Friday or actual demand. I have gone from getting excited and planning to thinking it might not happen this year... what roller coaster

I'm still holding out for £3k flydrive direct, the prices are nowhere near that currently

TPA or MIA are an option and it will come down to money at the end of the day

I'm a newbie to Florida, went as a kid in 1992 but now taking our 13 and 14 year old girls for next July and the prices are just crazy.

We're going with friends who are experienced Florida goers and they have bottled it and booked a fly drive from LHR-MIA for 3.5 weeks for £3800 with BA (2A 2C)

This seems crazy and I'm willing to hold out for cheaper flights, I will buy them as soon as they're under £3k with a car (Ford Edge) but I'm not paying nearly £4k!

We’ve been paying less than 2k for a family of 4 with car for 23/25 nights with connection from Newcastle for the last few years. I’m still holding out for it

I think that if you are prepared to look at indirect from Heathrow you are likely to have a better chance of hitting your target. 3.8 does seem like a lot but a fair whack will be car. How much is a car for that duration ?

It depends where you look, with BA they are changing their prices daily!

Other places like Budget, Alamo etc are about £700 to £1000 currently

I'm playing the waiting game as I'm sure these high prices are not long term

Looking for flights anywhere in the US for a reasonable price in July. My goodness this year they are expensive.
