London to tampa

Just a heads up can get flights or fly drive with British airways much cheaper in November if choose to fly into Tampa. May be worth looking at other months too. Currently 9th November can get £257pp! Reckon an excellent deal if compare to virgin flights from elsewhere! We live 30 mins from Manchester airport but worth travelling down to London for the price differences!

Ironically it was dearer to go to Tampa or Orlando for our dates. Flying from Miami home as it was over £1000 cheaper. Nuts!

We fly into Tampa too, 2-16 Nov. So much cheaper than MCO..
A bit confused though as the outbound flight seems configured for the 4 class version but it's not offering 1st class?

I've been on a few BA class 4 cabins and although the front cabin is a first class cabin they just use it for club passengers.

We like Tampa airport but sometimes it can cost more than MCO. It's quicker getting out the airport than MCO but the traffic going through Tampa city can be a pain sometimes.

According to Google maps it's around 85 miles, pretty much all on the I4 toll free dual carriageway, so a couple of hours should do it, traffic should be ok once clear of the Tampa area until you reach the Disney/I drive area

We've flown from Glasgow to MCO for several hundred pounds of saving in the past. This year we looked at allsorts to keep flight costs down...ended up MCR-MCO direct using some cash and some points!
