Travel advice

[cellrdwellr]

I'll be taking an impromptu trip to Orlando later this year, scored an unbelievable price on a luxury villa for 5 days. Plus Disney is right there. I've driven to Florida with the kids about 5 years ago (will NOT do that again) and also have flown down to Florida without the kids once to bury my father. I have yet to fly with the little ones (7&11). Anyone have any advice on travel arrangements? Flying would be the most efficient, but also probably the most expensive as well. For the 4 of us to fly round trip, basic, with jet blue was 1,777$ that practically negates the awesome deal I got on our villa. Any advice or input would be greatly appreciated!

Look at Allegiant airlines. We flew with them from Michigan to Sanford that is right next to Orlando. They are a non-stop airline I believe.

Sometimes cheaper to book a one way. Then a couple days later, book your return one way flights. Also, do a mileage app that tells you how much you'll pay for fuel if you drive. I've done and found out it was @ same to fly. But, you'll also need a rental car if you fly so that adds to your expenses. As long as you NOT going in April, we good.

Just don't take the same airline as Proctor and Harris in that Police Academy movie...

Went to Florida with them in December. Worked out well
