Key facts about Orlando

How to get cheap flights from London to Orlando

Tips and advice from our flight experts

When it comes to finding cheap flights from London to Orlando, you’ve got plenty of choice. There are 6,267 flights between the two cities every week. You can actually fly to Orlando from three London airports – London Gatwick (LGW), London Heathrow (LHR) and London City (LCY). Plus, you have two different arrival airports to choose from – Orlando International (MCO) and Orlando Sanford (SFB). Having multiple routes available gives you a better chance of finding cheap flights to Orlando, so it’s best to compare all your options.

That said, if you have a specific airport in mind, there are still ways to search for the best deals. Try looking at different airlines to compare as many prices as possible. A number of airlines fly from London to Orlando, ranging from big names like Virgin Atlantic and American Airlines, to budget-friendly options like Aer Lingus and Lufthansa.

Another way to find a good deal on Orlando flights is to travel during a less popular time of year. You’ll find the cheapest flights in January – Orlando’s coldest month. But there are also some good offers available between March and May, as long as you avoid the Easter Holidays. As you might expect, summer is the most expensive time to fly to Orlando, thanks to the toasty temperatures and school holidays. If you do need to fly to Orlando during summer, it’s best to book as far in advance as possible. October is also pretty pricey due to Halloween events at Florida’s theme parks but, if you fly in early November, you could still get a good deal.


FAQs about flights from London to Orlando

You can fly from Gatwick straight to Orlando International with Virgin Atlantic, American Airlines, Air France, British Airways, Delta, KLM or Thomas Cook Airlines. But, if you want to save some money, you could consider having a stopover – indirect flights are available with Lufthansa, United Airlines and Air Canada. Alternatively, you can fly direct to Sanford Orlando from Gatwick with TUI Airways.

Flying from Heathrow to Orlando is another option. There aren’t any direct flights available, but you can still compare a range of airlines. You could fly to Orlando International via Dublin with Aer Lingus. Or, if you’d like to have a layover in an American city, you can fly via New York with Austrian Airlines or Air Canada, or have a stop in Washington DC with United Airlines. Flights are available from Heathrow to Sanford, but you’d need to fly with at least two airlines and make at least two stopovers.
