Flights Aug 18. Why now?
Hi.
I've been on a break from the dibb as haven't been able to look at Disney holidays for a few years. Back now and planning for August 2018. I've been following the forum and notice a lot of people have already booked flights. where have you found these as I've looked in all the usual places and only see you too April 18. we plan on 2.5 weeks or more. 2 weeks villa with a Disney stay at start for magic bands and a universal stay somewhere along the line for FOTLP. Is this kind of holiday bookable now? also, how realistic is a flight of less than 600 GBP p.p. 2 adults and 2 teens? I don't mind an indirect flight if needed.

This far out you can book Fly Drive with the likes of Virgin and BA or flight only with, e.g., Thomas Cook or Thomson (google Fly Thomas Cook or Thomson Fly)
You can also book through companies like Charter and Ocean Florida ... always worth a quote |

BA flydrives are not available yet, they become available 355 days from your return.
Most will have booked flights with Virgin Holidays, Thomas Cook or via travel agents such as charter/ocean Florida etc. xx

The later you can go in August the cheaper the flights should be although BA had a fantastic sale last September for late July/early August flights. We have to go in summer holidays and I won't pay more than £500pp for indirect. Keep an eye out on the Trip Planning section as in a few months there will be a new thread for 'Cheap and glitch flights July/August 2018'. People post as soon as they see a bargain. I've seen flights as low as £300pp so it can be done 😃

I haven't seen any fly drive prices released for next year yet,I think they come out 11 months before.
Thomas cook and Thomson flights are released as others have said. The search engines don't go as far as August yet which is a shame.

I am going in Aug 18 - 21 - 4th Sept - 3ad 1 ch. I keep looking at Aug 17 prices which are very reasonable, so I am hoping that Aug 18 will follow suit.

Your villa and hotels will be bookable just now and yes there will be a few flight prices out fir those dates but going by previous years they will be pretty expensive as there is no prices to compete against until the 11 month mark. If you have a particular Villa in mind d be booking that asap.
