Holidays in Orlando

Soak up the sunny days in Orlando’s energetic atmosphere. World-famous for its variety of epic theme parks and fun-filled resorts, this city is a whirlwind of entertainment. With daily flights from London to Orlando, planning your trip to the land where dreams come true, has never been easier. Enjoy great value savings on our package holidays, when you book flights and hotels, or flights and car hire together.

Enjoy the best of Orlando's theme parks

We are the Official Holiday Prize Partner for Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway, so keep watching. If you’re not lucky enough to win a Place on the Plane, we’ll still have you flying high in the sky on your Orlando holidays. Brace yourself for riveting rollercoasters in the theme park capital of the world. Visit Universal Studios Florida and wander through The Wizarding World of Harry Potter™ - Diagon Alley™. For a dramatic ride of twists and turns, soar through the air on The Incredible Hulk Coaster® at Universal’s Island of Adventure. Then splash through Universal’s Volcano Bay, where Ohnu Drop Slide flings you off a volcano and Ko’okiri Body Plunge plummets you down one.

Making your way from park to park is easy in Orlando. Most resort hotels offer shuttle services for Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort. For other hot spots, you can use the I-Ride Trolley around town, where you can see the sights of International Drive, jump off at shopping outlets or head to a water park. Single adult fares cost $2 and children’s tickets are just $1. Be savvy and buy a multi-ride pass to save more of your dollars. If you've hired a car, there is self-parking available, but costs can mount up. You also need to watch out for toll roads as you navigate your way around.

Ant & Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway

Universal Orlando Resort and British Airways Holidays are confirmed as official holiday prize providers for the 19th series of Ant & Dec’s Saturday Night Takeaway which launched on ITV1 and ITVX on Saturday 25th February.
