Families with children who are travelling on Holiday to Florida in 2012 need to choose their holiday dates very carefully!
Florida Holidays in Summer |
Let’s look at them in detail:
February Half term Florida holidays - This is a great time to go, as weather is not too hot and queues are not too long. There is however an issue with these dates as the schools only give 1 week, so you need to take your child out of school for 1 week extra (this can be 2/3 days either side or 1 week earlier or 1 week later) Another favourite for this time is a 10day stay in one of the Universal Studio Hotel packages.
Easter Holidays – March or April, By far the most popular time of the year, you will need to book early if you are a school teacher I would recommend looking 2 days either side as you will still grab yourself a bargain ( and you never know your school may have some training days booked so you won’t need to take them out of school).
Florida Holidays at Christmas |
May half term Florida holidays - Special offers is the name of the game in this month, all airlines will introduce a discount BUT it a book early offer so look at for these..
Summer holidays 2012 – 20th July to 18th August is peak price and peak season. All airlines know this so this is their main profit time. You can bit a bit sneaky by taking out a Florida holidays offer on the 20th august for 2 weeks or 13th July for 2 weeks – just missing the huge price increase,.
October half term Florida holiday – brilliant time to go, plus you can fit in Halloween (if that is your thing). You really will need to book early if its a direct flight you are after. If you do bot mind a one stop and can take your child out of school 1 or 2 days either side you will grab yourself a fantastic offer..
And finally the big one - Christmas Florida Holidays – My only advice is to come back on the 1st of January or the 4th of January to stand a chance to get a good priced holiday. The 2nd and 3rd a very popular so get busy really quickly OR the cheapest option is to go 1 or 2 days before the term ends and come back 27/28th December. Mickey Mouse always has something good going on over Christmas.
