Why go now
The flight is $325 per person round trip, nonstop. Across 9 earlier checks we ran on this route, the median was $337, so this fare is $12 lower, or 4%. For two people, flights come to $650. The best-value hotel adds $259 for both nights. Our sample budget, which includes $520 for food and fun, comes to $1,429 for two. Mid-October is the season for the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and Halloween events, so a short weekend has an easy focus. Expect warm, damp weather: Friday is forecast at 93°F with a 42% chance of thunderstorms, then 79°F on Saturday and 75°F on Sunday, with showers possible. The flight leaves at 3:04 PM on Friday and lands at 5:31 PM, so you only use part of a workday. Prices included taxes and fees when we checked, and they can change.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park long weekend at a fast pace: one big park day, a festival evening and an easy Sunday. It works well for a couple or friends who'd rather spend their time on rides, food booths and fireworks than lounging by a pool. It also works for a family willing to pick one park and skip the rest. If rides aren't your thing, the outlet malls and restaurants on International Drive make an easy plan B.
