Normally, Orlando is a busy and expensive holiday destination for travelers and even those with second homes. But with the economic uneasiness this year, Florida’s vacation capital has plenty of good deals from hotels to resorts to airfares, and there are many great deals for those who want their own place in the sun.
Airlines are cutting prices to fill normally busy holiday flights to popular destinations, and Orlando is one of the most popular in a typical year. Airlines are offering a number of great deals, but the best ones are usually unannounced special sales. Recently, a number of major carriers had $49 one way domestic fares to cities in Florida. There will be plenty of good fares, even from UK cities, as the holidays approach.
Many luxury hotels are having a hard time filling their rooms, so they are also announcing great deals for visitors. The Loews Portofino Bay hotel at Universal Orlando, for instance, is offering a winter price reduction that increases the longer you stay at the resort. The Orlando World Center Marriot Resort is another hotel offering special holiday rates this season. This is a great place for those who want to take in the attractions and enjoy some golf as well. These are just two of the many places to stay here, including at the major resorts themselves.
When booking stays in and around Orlando, many of the resorts will have special deals including airfare. Check with the resort or hotel to see what’s available, and enjoy the sun and warm weather this holiday season.
