Why now
At $281 per person, this fare is 3% under the $289 median from 12 earlier checks on this route. It's not a huge drop, but it's under the going rate. For two people, we estimate the weekend at $1,341: $562 in flights, $259 for the hotel and $520 for spending money. October in Orlando means the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and Halloween events, so you get two seasonal draws on top of the parks. Friday looks hot at 93°F with a 42% chance of thunderstorms. After that it cools off: 79°F on Saturday and 75°F on Sunday, with only light shower chances. That's good weather for a short park run or a food-festival crawl. One heads-up: the cheapest flight has 1 stop and takes 10 hours. All prices include taxes and fees as we found them, and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park and food weekend. It's built around Disney, Universal and the fall festival lineup, with outlet shopping and a nightlife strip for the evenings. It suits couples or a pair of friends who want two big days packed into a short trip. With Friday mostly spent traveling, plan on one full park day Saturday and a lighter Sunday.

Questions readers ask
How much is the flight?
When we checked, it was $281 per person round trip on Frontier, or $562 for two, with 1 stop. That's 3% under the $289 median from earlier checks on this route. Prices can change.
Is there a faster flight?
Yes. Frontier also has a nonstop at $340 per person ($680 for two). It leaves early Friday morning and takes 155 minutes, compared with 10 hours on the cheaper 1-stop fare.
What is the weather like?
The forecast shows Friday at 93°F with a 42% chance of thunderstorms. Saturday drops to 79°F with a 20% chance of showers, and Sunday reaches 75°F with a 29% chance. Lows stay between 72°F and 75°F.
Is 2 nights enough?
It's enough for a taste. The 1-stop flight takes up most of Friday, so Saturday is your big park day and Sunday works for a shorter outing. If you want more time on the ground, look at the nonstop.
Do I need a passport?
No. It's a domestic trip, you pay in US dollars and Orlando is on the same time as Cleveland.
Which airport do I fly into?
The fare we found lands at Orlando International (MCO). The area also has Orlando Sanford International (SFB).
