Well I've booked for March ages ago in and out of LAX and mini van with insurance for 19 nights £536 each would have been cheaper but I paid extra for the late flight home . . This year was a similar price and last year around £430 each just for the flight .

Even in summer months LA flights can be cheap you often see them for around £500 direct .

I've never flown with them but Air New Zealand have frequent sales and good flight prices for LA.

Traffic is very busy in LA but because it's so slow moving its not scary just takes ages to get anywhere .

Took us 90 mins last year from Anaheim to Hollywood and it's only 35 miles this year we split our stay to avoid sitting in traffic so much .

Guess it depends on how confident a driver you are though , my DH is a hgv driver so nothing on the roads bothers him as he's use to driving through busy cities etc .

Why did I just check my preferred dates as a package, but from Manchester for Vegas? Ridiculous prices!Icould actually book again and STILL pay less than for one summer ackage from London,lol!

Thanks for your advice Daytonababe it's really helpful.
The only thing holding me back is cost of accommodation now. Done a quick search and coming in at over £1000 for a week around LA and around £1300 for San Fran.
Even looked on Airbnb. We are a family of 5 so always difficult looking for decent price accommodation.

Has anyone done this and not used the car hire as we don't really want a car?

[happytraveller]

I've booked packages only for flights before and not used hotels, so this shouldn't be any different. I certainly wouldn't be using it, if a deal like this come around again-assuming I keep my hands by my side with this one

Have you tried adding hotels to your booking? Comes up with loads of options and just seem to keep brining the price down!

I've found this too I was thinking of Orlando for August as a possibility. A package going from Manchester, which would be no real hardship, was coming out at under 2k for the Clarion and a bit over for Cabana bay. This is for 3 adults and a child. Me and my youngest can go for 1.4k. Madness
