Cheapest Ever Flights

Been playing flight roulette for our third trip to the Mouse and have been studying comparison sites for thirteen (yes, 13!) months every single day. My partner wanted direct, I wanted sub-£400 for Sep this year.

Some great one stop prices often appeared but obviously wasn't allowed to book then... BOOM!... 102 sleeps to go and:

Today, Thomas Cook direct, £370 return.

Very pleased.

If it helps anyone else, our dates are 09/09/17 - 03/10/17.

Sorry! I always start flight searches with £400pp in mind. I will not bite on any price unless below that threshold. If it was up to me, I'd have booked a £390 one-stop months ago but as my partner wanted direct I was forced to hold on.

Still, might see you around POR!

Remember back in 2006 we managed to get a superb price with First Choice (decent planes as it goes) going in October... flights were £150 + taxes... worked out at the time to £280pp... great price... I then got speaking to the couple in front of us and found out that they paid 0.80p (+ taxes) for their flights! Good old days those ...

Good prices but not the cheapest ever I remember getting a £99 2 week GLA-MCO and a £159 3 week NCL-MCO in the early/mid 90s These prices were quite common back then when there were more charters from the UK to Florida.

Fantastic price papamouse.

I got £320 indirect last year on the 20th August, if I can get less than £500 next year direct the same sort of dates I will be so happy.
