Easter 2012 - anyone else booking?

[Busylizzy]

Hi

Longtime lurker but finally joined so I can post questions about a forthcoming trip!!

Some background info first!
Trip dates: 31 March or 1 Apr 2012 for 12 or 13 nights
Fly out of any London airport to either MIA, MCO or TPA
Will consider indirect as long as connections are reasonable
3 adults & 1 child
Planning on car hire & townhouse at WH

I am checking Kayak, Skyskanner, Expedia, Net flights and some airlines own websites but cheapest so far is around £588pp. Some airlines haven't yet released these dates for sale so I know we are slightly ahead of the game but I want to be able to pounce when i see a good deal. We were hoping to pay no more than £500 pp but everything seems way off that mark at the moment.

For those who have booked flight only at this time of year, bearing in mind past experience, is it likely we will be able to get something within budget? Or are we way off the mark in our expectations? Or, can you suggest any other websites to check?

Many thanks!

We paid £500 pp flying direct with Virgin last year in May, think you would be lucky to get that flying direct for Easter 2012, but with one stop it could be acheivable. Hopefully Wayne will be along soon with some good advice, hes always on the mark with this sort of stuff
