Why go now

At $340 per person, this fare is $15 under the typical $355, which is the median of 12 earlier checks on this route. That's 4% less. The lowest we've seen in recent checks was $327, so it isn't the floor, but it's close. Flights for two come to $680. Add $259 for the hotel and $520 for spending, and the weekend comes to $1,459. October is EPCOT Food & Wine Festival and Halloween events season, so a short trip already has a plan. The weather cools through the stay: 93°F with a 42% chance of thunderstorms on Friday, then 79°F Saturday and 75°F Sunday with showers. It works well for a park-heavy long weekend with a festival evening. Prices were all-in when we checked and can change.

The kind of trip this is

This is a theme-park weekend with food and Halloween events on the side. It suits a couple or a pair of friends who want to pack a lot into two days. The pace is full: you land early Saturday, get to the parks, and spend the evenings on fireworks or festival food. If you'd like a break from the crowds, a river kayak trip slows things down.
