I am going to tear my hair out!!

After much though and disscusion we have decided not to go to Las Vegas as the flight is just too long. We now think we would like to do the 1st week in Orlando and the 2nd in New York. I have been trying to price flights etc online to see if there is a vast difference between the travel agent and doing it ourselves. The prob is that i cant seem to find many internal flights from Orlando to NY, am I looking in the wrong place! :confused:

I have priced Delta & American Airlines and both are rather expensive (I thought they'd be cheap like Oz!!) Can anyone tell me any other airlines or reliable sites I can try?????

Thanks guys xxx

Jenny,

If you use American Airlines to fly from the UK to the US, they will give you two internal flights for free, so you could use them to fly to Orlando - and then onto New York??! You can even get a third stop over if you pay them an additional £50 approx. So if you wanted, perhaps you COULD then go onto Las Vegas.

Dont let distance put you off, I originally ruled out Australia because I didnt think I could cope with it, but now I AM glad that I didn't let that get in the way of things, as I really am so looking forward to seeing a new country - well two infact, Australia and Hong Kong.

Anyway... I am waffling.

Also try looking at Virgin Holidays multi-centre holidays on their website.

Oh Claire...

We got this information in the past month or two from our Travel Agent - Its out of the American Airline brochure.......

As at the time we were considering going to the US for our honeymoon and going to 2 or 3 locations.

Thanks for all the info guys!

Karen, thats really good to know about the free internal flights!! Do you know if its valid from Ireland too?? We could get cheap flights to UK if we need to but it would be handier if we didnt!

AA will be flying from ireland (dublin and shannon) from 1st May this year. Can't see if they will have the offers above but why not contact them and see. You never know, they may just have some kind of promotional stuff to get people to choose to fly this them!!
