So if I'm reading this right there would be an overnight stay involved outbound - do they let you leave the airport and return the next morning do you know? If so that's a bargain.

Its a change of airport on the outgoing leg - you basically fly into Heathrow early evening and then fly from Gatwick the next day.

There are reasonable taxi services doing the Heathrow to Gatwick transfer, or you can use a Bus service I think.

So you've got to cost in the transfer and the overnight stay.

The big positive is it's direct from Gatwick to Orlando, which usually costs lots more.

..that's how I read it!
