View Full Version : Britannia Airways - Thomson flights
We usually fly either virgin or ba to Orlando International. We are having some major building works done at home, so I thought I would take my daughter to Orlando to stay in our house there for a week. Can anyone tell me about their experiences with Britannia Airways flights to Sanford. I have found flights for my daughter and I for £398 including all taxes, which seems a great deal for a quick trip away.
Thanks in advance [msnsmile]
Hi Andrea
Friends of ours were over at Easter ,their daughter and partner went over for a week ,booked about 3 -4 weeks before departing. Manchester-Sanford (£299 plus extras ). They had a good flight, no delays or complaints and on the return flight the plane was half empty and they stretched out on the empty seats. Can`t guarantee any of this though ,I think they just dropped lucky.
Anyway all the best with the holiday and home improvements !

My friend has used Britannia Airways flights to Sanford and she had no problem with them.
I have used Sanford air port on quit a few accessions and it is a very nice are port very friendly.
I always get my car hire separate from my flight as it makes it easy on arrival when all the other passengers are still queuing up for there car voucher I am driving out of the air port.

Britannia flights are fine and Sanford (while not attractive) is usually quicker to get through and immigration are particularly friendly
We flew Gatwick to OIA with Britannia a few years ago before they changed to Sanford.
No problems with anything and we upgraded for £99 per person to premium and had our own DVD player, plenty of room etc etc :o)
We've also flown with Brittania to Sanford and again no problems. In fact I prefer Sanford as we always seem to get out quicker than we do at MCO

We prefer Sanford, collecting the car is usually much quicker
Thanks for all your help - I just need to speak to my daughters teacher (as sats exams are sat in May!) then I will be flexing my credit card yet again!![msnwink]
SATs are W/C May 9th and if she is sitting them this year the school will not be happy if you take her away that week[msnsad]
Never travelled to Florida by Britannia but most of our Vacation Flights to Europe have been, and have know complaints what so ever. [clap][clap]

We have used Brittania a few times to Sanford. We may have been lucky, but never had any delayed flights with them. Seats are a bit cramped , as they are with most charter companies, but staff were pleasant .
