We were tempted at just over £1000 but couldn't bring ourselves to pay it. Then the prices went up by over £200 each and we were gutted. We were beginning to think we'd have to cancel and then suddenly prices went down for the day. One frantic phonecall from hubby to me and we booked. I've not looked at prices since but OH mentioned a couple of weeks ago that he's looked quite a few times and they've never gone cheaper. We booked end of November 2018 for this August. Good luck ☺️
I suppose it’s a case of being patient and taking a gamble... I have a max budget of £900 each so 🤞🏼 The money saved will pay for a night on site at universal.

You should be able to get them with your budget. I was looking forward to grabbing a bargain but as time went on and the prices were rising, it actually became quite stressful. It was such a relief to book and know for definite that we're going.
We stayed at universal for 2 nights in 2017 but are just doing Disney this time. Now I know about using Tesco vouchers on hotel.com, I'm hoping to use them for universal next time

we are looking for 7th july-26th July. Are prices likely to be lower before kids break up from school?

Yes, especially with Thomas Cook and TUI. Virgin tend to be expensive throughout the summer in my experience

I’m itching to get booked for next year! I’m hoping for £500 each (don’t mind doing indirect)

We have booked August 22nd to September 5th for 2 adults and 2 children (14 & 8) - although if I can get cheaper flights on surrounding dates I would be happy to pay the £50 alteration charge with Disney if it works out cheaper.

I'm looking for under £2000 for us all, ideally direct.

On our previous 2 trips we've booked fairly last minute (within 6 months of arrival) but this time we are booked 18 months in advance so looking for the best possible flight deals

I’m in the same situation,this is my first trip and was wondering if there is a better/cheaper time to book. I think I would be happy to pay around £2000 for 4 adults and a quick dummy booking with virgin brings up this price for most days available to book now

I think thats a great price to book now with Virgin. For our August dates they want £4500 for 2ad 1ch.

This year I've paid £750pp for economy out and PE back with BA booked last October. Economy both ways was £550 and I didn't see prices come down from this. Our dates are fully within the school holidays though so I know you'll often find cheaper if you can come back later.

Hi there, that's an amazing price. Could I ask who that was booked with? I'm looking for July 2020. Thanks :-)
