Hi ya

I used PL last year for Flights, Hotel and Car Hire

Let me brake it down

Flights: When to MRO via Washington on United Airlines cost £220 per person very good but you can't chose a departure time got to hotel at 01:00 am !

Hotel: Stayed at the Marriort World Centre, just off site Wonderful very nice hotel. £45.00 pound per room per night.

Car hire : Alamo £220.00 for 10 Nights no SLI insurance inclued in PL insureance so I got some over here £50.00.

I used Ebookers this time for flights because being able to chose departure time. I now have a time share so no need for hotels.

And used chose air for car hire because the fully in inclusive price work our cheaper that PL.

I hope that helps

Can you tell me did your hotel price include VAT and FLorida Tax or did you not have to pay Florida Tax on top

Rain,

You pay all the taxes etc when you book - there are no extra charges to pay at the hotel,

Hi Margaret,

We booked 4 month before hand and had no problems. Its worth having a go now.

Any more questions please ask. :)

Some hotels charge you resort fees the Marroit was $6.00 a day for the use of the Gym and other resort activities where you used it or not

Here is a link to the European site. It has not been going as long as the US site but it does have information about flights from the UK
