What It Costs to Fly to Disney World in Fall 2022

Planning a trip to Disney World is expensive. There are the tickets, hotel rooms, plus a budget for merchandise and food to consider.

Another thing you’ll have to consider is how much it will cost you to travel. If you’re someone who flies to Disney World, budgeting your travel costs can feel like a daunting task with flight prices currently high and with so many airlines to choose from. That’s why we’re here to help! We’re calculating the average cost to fly to Disney World so you can have a rough estimate of how much you’ll need to budget.

Let’s start with some basics. There are thousands of airports all over the country, so naturally, we can’t account for every single one, but we are going to take into consideration some of the biggest airports and common ones that travelers depart from. Additionally, in order to simplify things, we are only going to consider flights into Orlando International Airport. We are also basing this off of one single ticket, so keep that in mind if you are traveling with multiple people.

And finally, we are going to look at flights in September, October, and November to get a complete look at variations over time. We are going to pick a specific date span for each month and go off of numbers for that. We’ll look at multiple different airlines, and price things out accordingly. For ease, we are going to look at the cheapest, most direct (though some layovers may be inevitable) flights from a myriad of airlines.

We utilized Google Flights to get an idea for pricing.
