Why now
The fare is $579 per person round trip, or $1,157 for two, all-in when we checked. That's $118 below the highest fare we saw for these dates, 17% less, across 12 offers we compared. October brings the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and Halloween events, so the parks have extra going on this weekend. The forecast shows 93°F and a 29% chance of thunderstorms on Friday, then 80°F and 77°F with shower odds of 18% and 23% over the weekend. Add the best-value hotel at $259 and our budget for two comes to $1,937, including $520 for spending. One heads-up: this fare's return leaves at 7:10 AM Sunday and lands at 8:39 AM Monday, Oct 19. Frontier also had a nonstop outbound at $635 per person, 5:31 PM to 8:31 PM, so check its return times if Monday matters.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park long weekend, with Magic Kingdom, Universal and EPCOT all in play plus October's Halloween events and food festival. Since you land late Friday and fly out early Sunday, plan on one full park day and a quick pace. It suits a couple or two friends who know what they want to ride. If you stay in the Universal Orlando area, you can walk to the parks.
