- $161 per person, $186 below the typical fare on this route

Why now
The fare is $161 per person, which is $186 below the typical fare on this route, or 54% less. It's also the lowest we've seen in 30 days of checks. For the two of you that comes to $322 in flights, and $1,115 with 7 nights at a hotel rated 8.8. Mid-November highs usually run 74–78°F with lows near 60°F. Expect a clear day, a partly cloudy one and a stretch of overcast skies, which is comfortable weather for long days of walking around the parks. The June-to-August heat and the longest park lines are well behind you. A full week gives you room for Universal, Epic Universe and a Disney day or two without rushing. These prices are what we found when we checked, and they can change before you book.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park week for two adults who want rides by day and fireworks by night. The pace is busy but spread out: one park a day, back to the pool in the afternoon, and dinner on International Drive. It suits couples or a pair of friends who grew up on Harry Potter and Disney. Seven nights leaves room for a slower day on the Wekiva River.
