I'm probably doing Tuesday to Monday in Gainesville but also hoping to go on somewhere after like Toronto, San Francisco, maybe Vegas but I've found the flights this year are super expensive especially since Delta seem to have stopped flying out of Gatwick. Probably end up just doing Gainesville this year which still isn't that bad!!!!

I'm considering flying to Orlando for Wednesday (there's always a really good gig on there that night) and then going to Gainesville for Thursday.

Anyone else thinking of doing this?

I might fly to NYC and drive or fly down from there, make a bit of an adventure out of it.

I think now it's a choice between NYC before or Minnesota after. We want to do both, but Tim only has limited holiday... I need to sit down with a calender and google maps to try and work it out!
I'll keep you posted :D

Yeah...and they best have dropped in price by then. Right now I'm really not sure I can afford it.

Cream, our plans are to fly out on the Wednesday but we don't know where too yet, this seems the most sensible idea like.

Agreed. I'm sure I paid £100 less last year than what they're asking right now....

Has anyone found any good flight deals recently? Compared to previous years the prices seem really high. I admit since I first started looking when tickets got released the prices have come down a little bit but I'm super tight and want the cheapest deal possible!

BA started a sale about a week or two ago and prices in general seem to have dropped a little but it's still like 550 at the least. I'm holding out too much hope it's gonna get a lot cheaper. Probably just gonna go for it when I next get paid at the end of the month.

Just checked out the BA sale but still a bit expensive. Cheapest I've found so far is £480 flying into Orlando. Looking out for the Virgin sale if there will be one, last year my friends got flights for 379!

Today they have dropped by about £40. Hope this carries on!

Where did they fly to, doesn't look like Virgin fly anywhere useful.

They flew in to New York then back home from Miami. This year we are looking to fly into Orlando and hire a car to GNV, then come back from Miami after going to the Keys for post-Fest recovery.

I think i've accepted the fact I won't be getting flights for the price they had last year. Guess i'll just have to save a little bit harder!
