ORLANDO, Fla., Sept. 8, 2005 (PRIMEZONE) -- When the giant British Airways' 'Dreamflight' B747 arrives at Orlando International Airport on Sunday afternoon, Oct. 16, it will bring several hundred seriously ill children from Britain to central Florida for a week-long 'holiday of a lifetime.'
And while the children enjoy themselves at the various Florida attractions and theme parks, the Dreamflight B747 will return to London with economy class seats being sold to raise money for the charity to the tune of only $427, including roundtrip airfare and all taxes, government fees and fuel surcharges.
The roundtrip fare represents a 39 percent reduction over the least expensive comparable price during this time of the year and is available for sale through 6 p.m. (EDT), Friday, Oct. 14. The $427 all-inclusive fare provides customers with a great opportunity to experience London at a time of the year when the capital city is still full of excitement, but the crowds have subsided, and at the same time, help the dreams of many children come true. All proceeds from ticket sales will be donated to the Dreamflight organization.
Schedule of the special flights are: Depart Orlando, Monday, Oct. 17, 2005 at 12:01 a.m. Arrive London Heathrow, Monday, Oct. 17, 2005 at 1:10 p.m. Depart London Heathrow, Monday, Oct. 24, 2005 at 10 a.m. Arrive Orlando, Monday, Oct. 24, 2005 at 2:30 p.m.
Fares will be available for sale through 6 p.m. (EDT), Friday, Oct. 14, 2005, and will be sold on a first-come, first-serve basis. No changes are permitted once ticketing documents have been issued. Other significant restrictions may apply.
