May holidays in Florida
May is a brilliant time to visit Orlando; with perfect weather (warm, sunny blue skies) and the ability to extent your holiday in Orlando by incorporating the May school holiday half term! May tends to book up quickly though so booking early is essential to secure your Florida holidays flights and accommodation.
May flights to Florida
May allows for you to fly direct to Orlando using one of our airline partners, Virgin Atlantic or British Airways, from London and Manchester airports. Also, Edinburgh offers weekly direct flights to Orlando during May. To save money, many of our clients also choose to fly indirect, with our partners United Airlines and Delta Airways, via Tampa or Miami. Flying indirect Via Miami would give you the opportunity to extend your holiday and visit Florida’s Gulf Coast- with calm waters, untouched golden sand beaches and clear blue skies it just makes sense to make your Orlando Holiday even more special with an extended stay in the gorgeous Gulf Coast!
Things to do
With Orlando temperatures often being 90F or above in May, it is the perfect time to visit one of Orlando’s many water parks! Universal Resort’s Volcano Bay is one of our favourites! The Krakatau Volcano is the park’s amazing centre piece that features the thrilling Ko'kiri Body Plunge water slide! The Wave Village is also located at the base of the volcano and will provide hours of fun! You can also stay on-site at Universal’s Cabana Bay Beach Resort – just a 5-minute walk from Volcano Bay!
Another of Florida’s fabulous water parks are Disney World’s Blizzard Beach and Typhoon Lagoon! Disney’s Blizzard Beach is a ski-themed water park and fittingly the chair lift to the top of Mount Gushmore is the perfect way to access the water park’s best slides! The Summit Plummet is the ultimate thrill ride at Disney’s Blizzard Beach and from the top you can see park icons from all over Walt Disney World! A relaxing and fun way to see the entire park is to take the lazy river all the way around and hop in and out at different attractions! Disney’s Typhoon Lagoon is a shipped-wrecked themed fun-zone; the Crush ‘N’ Gusher is a 400-foot-long tube raft/coaster combo you won’t want to miss, and the park is also home to North America’s largest wave pool! There is also plenty of opportunity to eat, relax and soak up the Florida sun at Walt Disney World’s fantastically fun water parks!
