Yes I've used Helen before and can recommend her.

Throwing a spanner in the works, how about looking at October half term? I know lots of schools get 2 weeks now at October, weather is lovely and prices should be much cheaper.

Its putting me off the holiday.

Waited for dining announcement, now waiting to book but feel the goalposts are moving all the time £11400 now the price!

feels mad and stressed
We booked our flights as soon as they are released to get the best price (TC) and then book Disney later on in the year.

If its causing you issue then maybe wait until next year and adopt this approach.

Virgin still to release though so plenty to play for.

Good luck.

Try DIY it usually works out cheaper.. and be careful not to buy loads of 14 day park tickets that you won't get the benefits from.. this is what costs a lot of money.. look at what parks you would like to go to, and look and list them on the order of your favourite ones.. lots of help on the DIBB

So not stress. Don’t book flights before all carriers have released. That’s going to be a minimum of 11 months out. It is expensive. You can do it cheaper and still enjoy it. Tell any agent advising you to take your kids out of school at this stage for next Easter to hush. I’m not anti that but it’s too soon for that to be your only choice. That said. Easter is expensive. There are another 50 weeks in a year to book including other school holidays. Breathe. Wait. Plan.

There is no need to be stressed. It is too early to be looking for Easter 2020 which will be 12 April. You need to forget about it for at least another month and then you can properly assess all the options.

Why won’t there? everyone I know stays offsite . This is the first time ever we’ve stayed onsite for more than one night and it will probably be the last . We won’t stop going in October/Nov.
