Considering Indirect...Help!

[chipndalefan]

After deciding we wouldn't be doing Florida this year, Im getting withdrawl symptoms and thinking I maybe able to squeeze in a cheap trip.

As I'm looking for as cheap as possible, I'm toying with the idea of indirect flights. Ive never done this before, and haven't got a clue where to start, or whats a good price.

We're 2 adults, and I'm thinking of April-May time or Sept-Oct for 2 weeks.

Any help suggestons greatly appreciated!

Would you be getting a hire car or would want/need ME and Disney Transportation?

If you're getting a car you could go with the option of flying into Sanford rather than MCO. I believe that'll save a fair wedge and could still be a direct flight...

I dont mind whether its Sanford or MCO

Where do you prefer to fly from?

We usually try searchong Netflights first and see what comes up for both direct into Sanford and indirect. Once you have got and idea of what is available you can then start to narrow your searches based on your preferences.

hope that helps

We got indirect LHR-MCO with American Airlinesfor £340 in the school Easter holidays. I consider that to be a good deal! 3 hour layover each way.

I would look at the cost of direct, then work out how much you'd want to save on that. For us, it was half the cost to fly indirect so we were happy

I'm flying with Continental in May, Glasgow-Newark-Orlando. Booked at £347pp, however, my flights are now way more than £100pp than I paid! So it really does pay to shop about! I checked places like Netflights and Kayak, etc. but in the end booked with Continental direct

That's exactly like ours, we paid £350pp, but the flight is now priced at £653!
Normally we also book direct with Continental but Netflights was a lot cheaper this year for some reason.

We are going indirect for the first time this year too! A bit intimidating but I am sure it will be ok.
