Orlando from Charleston, Nov 14–21: $991 for two, all in
The verdict
Our verdict
Worth it, because
- Breeze nonstop, 1h 28m, leaving Charleston at 3:42 PM on Nov 14
- $148 per person, $82 below the typical fare on this route
- Highs of 74–78°F and lows near 60°F for park days
The catch: Resort fees and a checked bag are not in the total, and the $695 Courtyard room has no free cancellation.
Worth it if you want a full week of theme parks in mild weather; skip it if you want a quiet beach getaway.
Worth it for the two of you: the whole week is $991 for two, the flights at $296 plus the Courtyard in Lake Buena Vista at $695, taxes and fees included. That covers 7 nights, Nov 14–21, 2026, on a Breeze nonstop of 1h 28m from Charleston to Orlando International. Resort fees, a checked bag and spending money are not in the total.

Why now
At $148 per person, the Breeze nonstop is $82 below the typical fare on this route, 36% under, and it's the lowest fare in 30 days: we checked 12 offers that ranged from $148 to $278. Add the Courtyard in Lake Buena Vista at $695 for 7 nights and the trip comes to $991 for two, all in when we checked; prices can move. Mid-November is also easy on park days. The normals for these dates show highs of 74–78°F and lows near 60°F, with mostly overcast skies. The hot, stormy afternoons and longest park lines are a June through August note, not these dates. A full week gives you room for Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Universal and Epic Universe without rushing, plus a slower day on the Wekiva River.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park week at a steady pace: big park days at Disney and Universal, broken up by a slower morning on the river or an evening along International Drive. It suits a couple or two friends who like rides, fireworks and food more than lounging, and who want seven nights to spread it out instead of cramming it into a long weekend.
