The hunt for November 2020 priced

Today is the first date that BA dates cover our return flights, so I thought I would give you an insight how prices can differ.
We are going 28th Nov, ret 12 Dec, 3 Adults as our son us 17 now, in business class with Chevy Tahoe

Standard BA price LGW-MCO is coming out as £7,015.
Defence discount price is £6,581

Now,
Dublin-MCO, which is via LGW (same flight as above) comes in at €5,090 (£4,358)
Defence Discount comes in at €4,765 (£4,076)

Virg8n holidays, with equivalent car and equivalent insurance, lgw-mco is, wait for it...
£11,324!

now, I’m still waiting for Virgin Atlantic, Aer Lingus and American to reach our travel dates before we book,

We know that either, train to Gatwick, plus hotel, or flight from BHX to dub, that flight will add roughly £500 to the price, but once Aer Lingus is available it will be less than that for BHX-DUB-MCO

(BA for BHX-MCO is normally £1,000 plus for the same flights)

So, yes extra flight (on the way back we choose the mco-lgw-lhr-dub, as pick up cases at lgw and catch train home, quicker than waiting for flight back from DUB in the afternoon)

But a significant saving by flying extra flight!

Wow, big differences. Are these 'package holiday' prices, so including your accommodation as well? Or are you pricing up independently and these prices are just your flights and car?

We are flying LGW to MCO on 11th - 25th Nov with BA, cattle class going out and WT plus coming back with car fully covered and I am paying £1311 for 2 adults. I booked this 10 days before their current sale started.
