Hi Hi, super excited, i found out that my exams finish in time for me to join in on a trip to disney world with my mum and two mini siblings (5)(8)

yay me!!

So anyway, as usual its fallen to me to arrange the flights and whatnot...I've never been in May, more specifically taking off 25th May if possible (I read that Tues, Wed and Sat are the cheapest days to fly transatlantic!) .... Does anyone know how much i can expect to pay per flight? and can anyone recommened a good website? i ususally use travel supermarket or STA but both are failing me!!
We'd prefer Virgin, and definitely won't fly with United

Thanks in advance

Which UK airport?
How long for?

Yeah wow i really lacked detail there, sorry!!

London Gatwick preferably, If there are Heathrow flights then thats fine too.
Just for 7 days.
Economy cabin.|

Half term week will be expensive.
Best price I see means leaving from Heathrow and returning to Gatwick with Aer Lingus @ £563 per adult.

Nothing jumping out at me for just Gatwick. You will struggle in school hols.

Saturday is one of most expensive days.

For example fly a little earlier out of school hols (Tue 14 May – Tue 21 May)
and on Tuesday rather than Saturday and Aer Lingus (Gatwick both ways) £437, direct from £550.

Try Kayak.co.uk
