I thought TUI were stopping flying into sandford next year ?

We have TUI flights booked for next october Bristol to sandford - but I’m sure I saw they’re going to be flying into Melbourne instead ? It’s a long way off for us I know but we haven’t heard officially from TUI yet...

OP I’d say for the ease of flying to florida from your local airport, - do it !

We all know the overnighter coming home & then the onward drive home can be a real drainer...

The move to Melbourne is planned from 2022.

I think the flights to Melbourne start in 2022. So they are still to Sanford next year. Or at least I hope so! 😀

I think your right about it being easier to fly from somewhere local. The drive home is always awful. So the shorter the better!

Its worth a few extra pounds in the long run. I'll just never look at the prices again. 😀

👍👍 As you said, once you factor in the hotel at Manchester, Travel, food etc - (we also always stay over the night before at gatwick or heathrow), I’d say give it a go - we’ve never flown to Florida from Bristol before but it’s literally under an hour away so the return journey will be a doddle ! (Hopefully ! )

Gotta love your local airport... all we need now is Covid to clear off so we can all be happy travellers again over the Atlantic !

I am finding flights for next October close to £1k from Bristol in September, so I don’t love my local airport that much!
