Orlando, Fort Lauderdale and Miami are
. the tourist spots for vacationers during the
Christmas break, but space on airlines and
accommodations are almost nonexistent,
four Lincoln travel agencies said.
,- Hal Mischnick, Lincoln Tour and Travel,
said Orlando offers one of the nation's pre
meire attractions in Disney World, but that
Orlando's temperature fluctuates more
than other tourist areas.
44You could still probably estimate that
five out of seven days will be swimming,
type weather," Mischnick said. "And be
sides Disney World, there is also Cyprus
Gardens and Sea World for tourists."
Fort Lauderdale 'offers the best beaches
and water facilities, Al Peters of Via Van
Bloom said. Miami offers a great deal, he
said, but an older crowd frequents Miami
while younger people head to Fort Lauder
dale and Orlando.
However, no matter how attractive the
tourist havens are, the availability of air
flights and hotel accommodations is limited.-
. . ,
"If arrangements aren't made by now,
the chances are going to be slim to be able
to arrange a trip," Peters said.
Trips during the immediate Christmas
season are almost all booked, and only
after January 10th is any sizeable amount
available, Mischnick said.
"The only possibility right now would
be to be put on a waiting list and hope for
cancellations," Mischnick said.
Jon Van Bloom of Nebraska .Travel said
that if a person is going to Florida, he will
find a large amount of tourists, many of
which are from the East Coast.
'You'd be surprised at how many peo
pie vacation in Florida from New York
City, Philadelphia and even Montreal " Van
Bloom said. "It's just so easy to get down
there for them, one easy flight."
A lot of families with children in high
school also vacation in Florida during
Christmas in lieu of Christmas presents and
because it is often the only time that every
one in the family can take time off, Van
Bloom said.
Steve Cuddy, Travel Unlimited, said
that vacationers will find higher prices
during the vacation season because
businessmen know people will pay the
higher prices.
"We usually estimate $45 to $150 a day
for hotel, depending on the quality and
$25 per person per day for meals "Cuddy
said.-;.- , .., ,,.,,lt. , ,
Airfare will cost anywhere from $220 to
$330 a round trip. Souvenirs and drinks
will increase the total price of a vacation, 'i
Cuddy said.
"There are higher prices, no question
about it," Peters said. "But by the same
token you can spend whatever you feel
you can afford to spend ."
Peters said that although there are many
expensive restaurants, .' there is always
McDonald's, too.
It is all a matter of Individual prefer
cnce.he said.
"The warmth, the beaches,; the water
and all of the, unusual tourist attractions
make Florida an attractive spot, but the
prices and the large crowds of other
tourists are also there ," Peters said .
