Florida is also known as the Sunshine State, and not without good reason. If you’re craving a bit of sun, then there is no better place to head off to for a bit of a break.

There is so much to do in Florida, no matter where you head to. There are famous attractions such as Walt Disney World and Universal Orlando Resort that attract a huge number of people every year, and plenty of opportunities to party it up in style, relax, explore nature, and plenty more besides.

Florida is the perfect place to let go of all of the stresses and worries of your day to day life, find a picture-perfect powdery beach to relax on, and enjoy the warm waters while soaking up the sun.

There is also plenty of wilderness to explore, and if you’ve ever wanted to come face to face with an alligator, you’ve chosen the right place. It’s also the perfect place to go diving, and explore the coral reefs below the warm waters, enjoy some water sports, or spot wild dolphins.

So, are you ready to book your flights to Florida from the UK and experience all of this for yourself? Here at Globehunters we offer fantastic fares from various airports in the UK, which are all completely ATOL and IATA protected.

Flying To Florida From The UK

Here’s everything you need to know if you’re planning on booking flights to Florida, including flight times, entry requirements, and the airlines to consider flying with.

Flight Times

The average flight time to Florida from the UK is 9 hours, and this will vary slightly either way depending on where exactly you are flying to.

Entry Requirements

Tourists visiting the USA with a UK passport will usually use the Visa Waiver Programme, as this is the quickest and easiest way to enter the country. It allows British Citizens to enter the country for up to 90 days, and it costs $14, which also makes it the most cost-effective option for most people.

You simply need to complete an Electronic System for Travel Authorisation (ESTA) online at least 72 hours before you fly. Always take care to ensure you are applying directly as it is known that certain third-parties will advertise the service, charging a premium.
