Why now
$332 per person round trip is $425 below the typical fare on this route, which earlier checks put at $757. That works out to 56% under, and it's the lowest fare we've seen on this route in 30 days. Across the 11 offers we checked for these dates, fares ran from $332 to $712. Prices are all-in, with taxes and fees included, as we found them, and they can change. Mid-November in Orlando usually means highs of 74–78°F and lows near 61°F, which is comfortable weather for long days on your feet. For two people, the flights come to $664, and five nights at Avanti International Resort add $552. This is a theme-park trip at heart, with Magic Kingdom, Universal, EPCOT and Epic Universe all within reach.
The kind of trip this is
This is a theme-park vacation with full days. You'll be up early for park opening, out for the fireworks, and possibly up for an airboat ride on a quieter morning. It works well for a couple or two friends who want rides, shows and outlet shopping, and the same plan fits families. Expect lots of walking and late nights, with mild November weather.
