    Hey everyone,

    I was just wondering who is likely to be embarking on a bit of travelling at the end or their program?

    Also, I don't know if this will be too late to help anyone, but Virgin offer a 'Multi City' option when booking a flight through their website. This means you can fly to Orlando on the way out and fly back from a different city on the way home and it still counts as a return ticket and there is not change of airport charge.

    For example, I am looking to fly from Manchester to Orlando on June 21st, returning on September 17th. I'm going to do a bit of travelling at the end of the program, ending up in Washington DC. So I looked at the multi city option on Virgin and a return ticket flying from Manchester to Orlando on June 21st and Washington DC to London Heathrow on September 17th is only £307, which is a fair bit cheaper than booking a normal return ticket from Manchester to Orlando and i don't have to get back to orlando to get back home!

    So I hope this helps! and sorry about the rambling!

    Hey Em
    Just started a topic on this - should probably have looked first!!
    I'm thinking of travelling after the end of the program, but would quite like someone to go with!!

    I was looking into some Contiki trips - tho they are quite a lot of money (but good value for what you get!)
    Would you be interested in one of those?

    Also, I've booked my ticket but I return from Orlando (tho I can change the date if necessary for travel)

    Sorry for the ramble!!
    Katie xx

    Hello!
    My boyfriend is doing the program too and we've looked into it and think we're just going to travel round florida and see everything you don't normally see and do some diving in the keys. If anyone wants to join us that would be great! xx

    I finish June 4th 2010 and I am looking on doing a road trip across the US and across Canada back to my home. I am doing a bit of planning now and decided I want to go from Orlando to Los Angeles and North to Vancouver then head East to get back to my home city in Thunder Bay. After wards I am most likely making my way to Europe. But you know your more than welcome to join me on my road trip across America and Canada! I am also looking for someone to join me or more even. I plan to buy a Car in Orlando so :)

    wow, use are all making me so jealous, it doesnt look like we are going to california next year now, argh! quite disappointed, but i think were going to africa instead. I really want to go to las vegas, but we are still considering on what to do, but my mum and dad are not coming out to see me this year, my dad doesnt want to go to florida again cause hes done it three times, but i fancy going to miami or staying in orlando for a few days after my program. I just really need to wait and see how my financial situation is through the next few months ;D
