    Do Tui give you 2 x 23kg and are you saying the seats are bigger the PE on Virgin? Thought it was only one? Flying into Sanford is fine but you need to tag on the much longer drive to your hotel.

They Fly the 787 Dreamliner from Gatwick to Orlando Sanford. Sanford is a little further but is soooo much quicker then MCO (Orlando In Airport).

    Their upgrades to Premium are usually £275 each (round trip not one way).

    Perks are:

    Premium checkin & security at Gatwick
    Free Number 1 lounge at Gatwick
    Boarding first
    Bigger Seats
    Extra Luggage
    Choice of meals
    Premium Lounge on return from Sanford to Gatwick

    We've done a number of videos on YouTube showcasing the Dreamliner and premium Econ.

    No, sorry.. I wasn't very clear... the PE luggage on TUI is more than economy. You only get 1x 23kg Hold and 1 x 7kg carry on per person.

    The seats on the Dreamliner are claiming they are slightly bigger than others in PE. The price tag is a lot more inviting than others for the PE upgrade.

    The drive down to Kissimmee has never been more than an hour and, in our opinion, is a great offset than the hanging around at MCO immigration. Did that years ago and don;t miss it. At Sanford you can be off the plane and in the car within 30 mins.

    Sanford is also currently undergoing a refurb with a hotel planned. Will be interesting to see.
