Booking holiday insurance and changing your spending money into the local currency is also a priority for parents, as is checking the weather.
Checking the length of flight times, updating your holiday wardrobe and checking the destination in relation to everything else is also a must.
George Aguel, President and CEO of Visit Orlando, said:
Orlando has always been a popular destination for British holidaymakers because we are a destination that offers not just great value, but also guarantees lifelong memories will be formed.
Tools like the Visit Orlando App are extremely useful planning resources for families wanting to make sure they maximise both time and money while including activities that will make the holiday meaningful to them.
