On this subject, although not directly connected, if you have a Nationwide Flexaccount, you can use your debit card abroad and you do get bank rate - even out of cash machines - and no fee unless one is charged by the atm itself.  Great if you travel a lot.

I think a bit of advance currency purchasing may be in order if this carries on!! Or might it even carry on getting better all the way until March??
One mans gain is anothers pain... In my experience anyway. Get while the getting is good... for you.

For any Brits planning on Sebring in March...

There is a week's fly/drive in the BA sale for £295. Here's the link http://www.britishairways.com/travel/bahjan07woffers/public/en_gb?source=woffers_jan07_holidayshome
but you have to call them to book - I assume that's all inclusive, so seems a good price.

Too bad I've already booked...

Beware that BA are changing the regulations on baggage. From 1st of February you will only be allowed ONE item of check in luggage (down from 2) and it cannot weigh more the 23Kg (Previously 32Kg). If you were planning on bring stuff back beware.

Also it could be foggy in March!

Thanks Rick, I didn't know that. A couple of minor corrctions:

It's from 13 Feb and

"World Traveller customers travelling / connecting to or from the US, Canada, Caribbean, Nigeria, Brazil and Mexico will continue to be allowed two checked bags in line with the local government regulations." (This is the lowest form of ticket on BA)

Not sure if that last statement means 23kg each.

The new policy is here - http://www.britishairways.com/travel/ba6.jsp/bgpolicy/public/en_gb

The excess baggage costs are scary! "£120 per bag or £96 per bag  if paid online" for long haul...

Just checked Virgin (http://www.virgin-atlantic.com/en/gb/passengerinformation/baggage/allowances.jsp), seems they are already on 23kg (with two bags to the US etc) so BA is just coming into line

Well done good to hear! Take it you are on the same flight back as me and Mark? What day are flying out as we may have car space to collect you from Orlando.

Talking of cars, George has booked our wheels for Sebring. A Dodge Charger, at knockdown price. Unfortunately you guys won't see it as we don't collect it until we reach Miami on the Sunday afternoon. Not quite the 300C i was hoping for but not far off...

I guess ours will be the 2.7 but it looks OK, and all for about £12 per day...  :)

We`re travelling from Orlando/Longwood to Sebring with my brother Glen in his pick-up and then from Sebring to Miami with Pidge.

...not quite so Martin, 4 dr. full size with cancellation fee, all other fees and taxes is GBP 157.00 from floridacarhire, our comparable deal is costing us only USD 168.02. If anyone is in need of the Promotion Code and Rate Code numbers then PM me and I will pass them on. Be aware that these codes are only on certain type cars, the Dodge Charger being one of them. The pick up location in Miami is also an off airport site that makes the price also cheaper.
