- Walt Disney World & Florida Vlog - Dec 2018 - Day 1 - Travel Day - British Airways to Miami
We start our day checking in with British Airways at Heathrow Terminal 3. We access the Cathay Pacific lounge using our British Airways Exec Club membership as part of the One World alliance.
Our aircraft is a British Airways 747 and we had Club World (business class) seats on the upper deck or 'bubble'.
We rent our car from Avis at Miami Airport and complete the 4 hour drive to our villa in Orlando.
Join us for our trip to Florida!

Luke & Rich
L & R Dreaming I’m totally not jealous 😂😂❤️❤️
A perfect Sunday. School uniforms ironed, dinner just ready and now me and son sitting down to watch you both! 👩👦❤️ love my Sunday evenings!
Thanks so much for watching us Elaine :)
Rich driving the whole ride is totally me, getting in the zone and getting it done! Loved this travel day vlog, you two are such a delight. Can’t wait for the rest of the vlogs. Your mini vlogs from this trip have me excited for the full videos!
Haha he was totally in the zone. Thanks so much for watching us x
I so enjoyed this. I must say I miss Florida at this time of year. I am sitting by the fire sipping vino having shoveled snow today, yet again. However I am not complaining,having owned a small mobile home very near Orlando for 22 years l do not deserve to complain. I so loved the highways free of ice and salt that rots your car. The clear blue sunny skies and the warm weather. Yes I know it can be cold but never like Nova Scotia. I loved shopping at Publix. I am thankful you take me with you. Thank you.
Thanks so much for watching Anne, we wish we were back there too :)
What an amazing day you had!! Being At the airport... For me...is where all the excitement begins! I love all of your videos guys!
Yay! I'm so glad there's another Vlog series! Travel days are my favourite. I always feels as excited as your guys.
Thanks so much for watching us :)
They say part of the fun isn't at the destination, but getting there. It looks as if Club World was pretty good! Thanks for sharing.
Thanks so much, we had a good travel day over :)
I am so glad the Full Vlogs are coming!! Have to say my Favorite British Comedy will walys be Benny Hill but a close second is Are You Being Served. Its still very funny!!
Thanks so much for watching :)
You guys are so amazing, so lucky you choose to share all of these moments with us
Thanks so much for watching us :)
I've been binge watching all your videos for about 2 weeks now and I'm obsessed with them! I originally found you by searching for Virgin Atlantic flights to Orlando from the UK, I watched your travel day one and they are my favourite!! My fave UA-camrs now, keep being you!
Sending lots of love and magic 💖
Ahhh thanks so much for watching us, we're so glad you've found us and enjoy our videos :)
We love travel days! Wow that lounge was beautiful, too bad you weren't able to spend more time there. That was quite a long day for you guys, such a long flight plus a 4 hour drive all in one day, whew!! Looking forward to the rest!
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Great vlog, guys! Can’t wait to watch more!
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Yay for the new vlogs! I missed the song so much! It's not the same hearing it without watching your video at the same time. 💙✌
Ahhh thanks so much for watching us :)
Always wait for the full vlogs. Thanks for doing it. Nice music at the start too!
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Another great vlog x
Your vlogs always make me smile.
I'm glad I'm not the only one that gets excited about getting new perfume at duty free x
aww thanks so much for watching. We love getting new after shave, it's the best part of the airport lol x
I always look forward to your vlogs!
MICHELLE H hello fellow Michelle H

Luke and Rich...I watched all ur mini vlogs, and can I just say.... I think ur just the loveliest couple....can't wait for ur next vlog x
Thanks so much Ann, so kind of you to say :)
The Cathay Lounge is my absolute favourite!!
Always such a great choice of music! I can never get over how much luggage you guys take - every time I watch one of your travel days I am amazed, haha.
Thanks so much for watching us :) Haha the luggage is always a challenge lol
Another amazing vlog you guys, I loved it! You’re always so informative and helpful! How lovely that you got the airport lounge to yourselves 😃 ....and an all you care to enjoy KFC- wow! 😍 Looking forward to the next vlog xx
Thanks so much for watching! It was so nice in the lounge but so short on time lol xx
Awesome vlog as always guys...Thankyou for taking us along with you 😁
Thanks so much for watching :)
You both do the best travel vlogs...Thank you guys.
Thanks so much Tracey :)
Great travel day!! That lounge was amazing, lovely seats on the plane too. Big fan of publix too and champions gate is a beautiful place. The villa looked stunning can’t wait for more thanks for sharing
Thanks so much for watching us! Ah yes love Publix, wish we had it here! :)
Another fabulous vlog! We stayed in a villa at the Lake Wilson Reserve in a turquoise little bunglalow which had about 5 bedrooms! It was like Pandora’s box! Looking forward to the next one! 😁
Thanks so much for watching us :) There are some lovely villas on that estate
Brilliant first day! Well done for the 4 hour drive, that must have been exhausting. Can't wait for the next vlog x
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Great idea to video your rental car inspection. Don’t know why I never thought about doing this!
We've always done it just to cover ourselves much easier now with the camera or phone quality being so good, it only takes a minute and so worth it if the rental company ever says you've caused damage :)
What a long day!! U guys must have been knackered.
So fun, looking forward to the next one xxx
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Amazing travel day vlog ☺️ enjoyed every minute, as always! Can’t wait for next one now 🥰 xx
Thanks so much for watching us Irene x
Your vlogs are such a pleasure to watch! And thank you BOTH so much too for sharing your exciting adventures with us xx
Class as always.
Thanks so much for watching us :)
This video was super helpful as we are doing the same route in the summer and when we get there we’ll do a bit of a road trip-Miami, Clearwater, Universal, Busch gardens and to top it all off DISNEY for two weeks. It’ll be strange not flying on virgin to Orlando but I’m sure it will be amazing! This was an excellent video btw I couldn’t fault it in anyway. Perfect time as well about as long as a tv show!
Can’t wait for the rest. 😊🇺🇸🥳
Edit:One of the best videos you’ve ever made!
Thanks so much Alice, so kind of you. It was a little strange flying into Miami, but so nice when we finally arrives 'home' in Orlando. Sounds like a great trip you have planned, have the best time ever!
When we were younger we used to go to a KFC buffet near Cocoa Beach. We would fill our cups up with chicken before we left (sucking up crumbs as we left to make it look as though we were only taking out drinks 😂😂) and then take it to the beach for later! Ahhh memories! And a memory we always bring up when talking about past holidays, lol!
Haha that sounds amazing! We've never heard of it but need to track one down and try lol
Loved this video, KFC buffet! Whaaat! 😮 Can't decide if that's amazing or not! Can't wait to see more of your trip. Tom and Nat x
Haha thanks so much. We need to try this KFC buffet to see what's in store lol
Love the vids. You capture the excitement of holidays perfectly. We are just starting to plan our Florida trip for summer 2020 : )
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Aww loved this vlog guys!!! Omg I SO need to go back! CANT WAIT for your next vlog! Xx
Thanks so much Paul :)
Great video! I loved your opening montage!!
Thanks so much Ann. Hope you're settling in back at home now after your trip x
What a great travel day. Lovely seeing a different journey. ie to Miami. Looking forward to the series.
Thanks so much Gary, it was definitely a long journey but it got us there! haha :)
L & R Dreaming that’s the main thing
Hi from Reading 😀 Such a helpful video! We are going via Miami for the first time in August and so glad you guys have done a video doing that drive x loving all the Disney vlogs 😘😘😘
Thanks so much Lianne, have an amazing time!
Absolutely love watching your vlogs and this ones made me depressed as we stayed in Lake Wilson last august. Have a truly magical time in Shanghai and Disneyland but so looking forward to your Hawaii vlogs. My daughter will be so jealous as that's on her list of places to visit.
Thanks so much :)
Looking forward to seeing the next vlog 😎👍
Thanks so much for watching :)
Great video guys as always , rich done so well with that drive after a long flight i take my hat off.Cant wait till the next one always good fun :) x
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Fab vlog can’t wait for the next one xx
thanks so much for watching xx
Was the drive up from miami nice and this was a great travel day me and my wife loved it carnt wait to watch the rest
thanks so much. The drive was a little busy coming out of Miami but after that it was pretty easy roads
"It's not easy with the luggage." I'm not surprised with such an insane amount of luggage. :)
I love your holiday vlogs! makes me excited for my trips, and i use every tip that you guys have told us hahaha!
Thanks so much for watching :)
YAAYYYY TRAVEL DAAAYYYYY :) Aw wow that view from the lounge! Amazing! I've never sat in 'the bubble' before. As a kid I thought it was for the crew and pilots to go to sleep there haha :p
Miami airport looked a bit chaotic...I felt anxious and I wasn't even there! Forgot for a minute it was the day after Christmas so that's probably why. What a lovely car you had, looked fairly new still?
I could never drive 4 hours at once. We live about a 4 hour drive away from Disneyland Paris. I tried once...thought I was driving for 2 hours....I bearly did 1 haha :p But I was in too much pain so I had to stop and my husband had to take over. I always feel so sorry for him that he has to be the one driving the whole time. We do stop once, about 1,5 hour away from DLP, but that's usually it.
Thank you guys! I loved it again, so much. You know I love my travel day and plane-vlogs ;-) xxx
Annelies Thuwis so did I !!! 😂❤️ so glad someone else did to
@@Pinkypeach haha yaaay 😂😘
aww thanks so much Annelies. Miami was a little crazy but expect it was impacted by holiday crowds. The car was quite new and had around 8000 miles on it, nice to drive. Luke did offer to drive repeatedly but Rich was so determined to do it haha. x
Loved your travel vlog, can’t wait to see your new one at Hollywood studios x
Thanks so much for watching us x
My favourite Publix to use there too, the staff are amazing :)
Love your vlogs! I’d have been eating and drinking everything in that airport lounge 🤣🥂
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Lush vlog. Travel days are amazing. Looks like everything went to plan. Love your intro ❤️. Wow, we stayed at Lake Wilson on our last trip, were staying just around the corner at Thousand oaks this time. Loved watching again xxx
Thanks so much for watching us! It's a lovely area by Lake Wilson :)
You two are AMAZING. I don't think I could have handled driving after flying and being up that long. Looks like a pretty drive, though.
Thanks so much, it was so worth it when we finally arrived!
Hi, love ur videos!! And the Epcot luggage tag that u wanted is now in the Disney outlet store for 3.99!!!! 😀
Thanks so much Kate. Oh wow, we need to get to the outlets haha
:) Always enjoy watching your travel vlogs, feels like we are there with you :) Look forward to the watching the rest as always :) xxx
Thanks so much for watching us :)
I get really excited about going shopping in Publix :) great video guys!
Thanks so much Dee, we love Publix! x
Love your vlogs. I always feel like I’m on holiday with you! My next holiday is March, Vegas for my birthday. 😁
thanks so much for watching, we hope you have a great time in Vegas!
Love this Video. How nice does Business Class look. One day I will experience it-LOL
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Looking forward to seeing the up coming blogs x
Caroline Aberdeen Scotland x
thanks so much Caroline x
We’d have been straight in for the Cath Kidston sale as well, their Disney stuff has been so cute! Can’t wait to watch the rest of your trip 😄
Haha we got immediately drawn into Cath Kidston, shame they had no Disney stuff! Thanks so much for watching us :)
I always always love your vlogs. You rock :D
Thanks so much for watching Connor :)
Love your vids so much ❤️ btw love your sing playlist 😘
Thanks so much for watching us :)
Great video! We are heading to WDW in April and your videos have been so helpful.
Thanks so much, we hope you have a great trip!
Watching this made me miss Orlando so much! We loved staying on Lake Wilson Reserve :-) I love a good Publix shop :D
Thanks so much for watching us :) Oh yes, we recognised you were nearby at Lake Wilson Reserve, we remember seeing our villa when you went for a walk!
Great vlog guys!
Thanks so much Nicki :)
Looks great so far! Can’t wait for the rest of the trip. :) There is a KFC buffet in the town where I live, but I’ve literally never eaten there. Lol!
thanks so much for watching us, wow we need to try the KFC buffet haha
Thanks so much for sharing this info, we are doing the same route in August. We’ve booked a hotel as our fight doesn’t get in until 9:30 in the evening so wouldn’t fancy the drive up at that time. Will be strange not flying into Orlando international.
Thanks for watching Lisa. Great idea for the hotel, we definitely would have stayed overnight if we hadn't had an early arrival. Have a great trip!
Finally.......it's L & R Sunday time
Yay, thanks so much David :)
I love your vlogs my next holiday is to Walt Disneyworld Florida in July x
Thanks so much, we hope you have a great time! x
Excellent video guys . This is the first video I’ve actually watched of yours (my wife watches your videos quite a bit). We have both noticed that your based in Bracknell which is only a few minutes down the road from us in Lower Earley.
Thanks so much for watching us, we're very close to Bracknell. Small world!
Yaaaaaaaaay!!! 🥰🥰
Thanks so much for watching :)
Was it cheaper to fly to Miami than to Orlando? From BC Canada it was ok to go to Orlando, and we used the magical express.
Great vlog! I was wondering, is it confusing or Hard to get used to driving on the right side of the road, and if so, how long does it take to become second nature to you? Or doesn't it ever? Do you constantly have to think about it as you are driving?
Thanks so much for watching us :) It does feel more natural now, we find it easy driving in the US and after a day or so we hardly notice the difference.
I'm honestly shocked by the amount of luggage. LOL. I understand bringing a lot of stuff home but I take as little as possible with me headed out.
Haha Eric, those cases are very empty and light! Coming home is a different story lol.
@@LRDreaming Whew. I was wondering how many you would have coming back. I live in Florida its fun seeing your thoughts on places. Have you ever tried the chicken tender sub sandwich at Publix ?
oh yes, we love a Publix sub!
Joanna Lumley on your safety video and then the real, live David Walliams at luggage claim? That’s a score! (Did you both get your “Speedy Boarding Pass” along with everyone else?) 😜
hehe it was a score!
Love this, I don't know why but I always enjoy seeing the travel days - can I ask why you flew into Miami rather than Orlando this time? :)
Thanks so much. Miami was less than half the price of Orlando, so we did it to save money :)
You gotta try the Outback Steakhouse it’s amazing out there 👌
Oh yes, we have tried Outback before, very nice!
Hi guys. Great vlog as always. Can I ask, who did you book your villa with? We are going for our first time in September and are currently looking at villas to book x
Hey, thanks so much for watching! We booked directly with the owner from Facebook. Please pop us a direct message on any social media (link is in video description) and we can give more info x
Who do you book your villas through? I recently found you guys and I've been binge watching almost everyday.
We normally book direct with the owner. There are also some good facebook groups that have villas.
Love travel vlogs-could I ask do you rent your villas through a company or privately?
Thanks so much, we always rent directly with the owner :)
105 days until it’s our turn! Can’t wait! 6th-20th May🙈
Have an amazing time!
I've always wanted to travel on a 747
It's a fantastic aircraft but slowly being phased out :(
Wow, you guys must have been exhausted after that travel/driving day! I was expecting Rich to get the ribs from Chilis lol
Haha the ribs were definitely discussed!! It was very tiring, but so nice to arrive 'home'
Yeah just wondering guys, was there a reason you flew to Miami and not directly to Orlando?
By the way love your vlogs!
Thanks so much for watching. We flew into Miami purely because it was significantly cheaper. The prices were more than double to fly to Orlando so we saved a lot with Miami.
KFC buffet sounds like heaven! As long as they have unlimited gravy too, you can’t have kfc without gravy ahaha
haha it does sound amazing!
Hi, I love watching your vlogs, I wondered, have you ever stayed at the Dolphin Hotel? If so what did you think?
Hello! Thanks so much. We've not stayed there, but the location is amazing!
Those extremely narrow moving walkways at MIA are terrible if you're carrying luggage. I experienced the same last year.
Hi guys, loving the vlogs we are doing the exact same plan as you in October this year flying into Miami with BA then drive the following morning, which route did you take from Miami to Orlando, did you find any hidden charges with the tolls with AVIS?
Hey! Thanks so much for watching us. We took I-95 and the turnpike. We did change route a couple of times to avoid traffic, we were using Google maps and it updated real-time and saved a lot of time.
We had no hidden charges and everything came out as expected. It can take a couple of weeks for the toll charges to file through your credit card so keep checking upon your return.
Have a wonderful time!
Hi love your vids watched for ages now. We are florida fans too and this time we are flying to miami. How did you find the drive after the flight, and did you have a sat nav. My son sooooooo wants to go to the KFC buffet 😂😂😂 xx
Hello, thanks so much for watching us. The drive was long and ideally we would say stay the night in Miami then drive the next day. We use google maps on our phone for sat nav x
The music comes in a bit louder than when you are talking. It's a bit startling. Could you maybe adjust it or look in to it?
Just curious, why not fly in directly to Orlando?
I think they said in a previous vlog that the prices were much to high to go to Orlando directly
It was more than double the price to fly into Orlando, so we chose Miami to save money :)
@@LRDreaming Oh, wow! Next time, I'll check out Miami as well. I don't mind a three hour road trip! Can't wait for the rest of the vlogs!
To be honest, with as slow and awful Orlando International Airport is with security, they probably saved both money AND time going to Miami, even with the 4-hour drive! 😜😜
Do you ever go to Busch gardens or Kennedy space station :)
Yes! We used to have Annual Passes for Busch/Sea World for quite a few years but haven't gone the last few trips. We will go again.
We are doing the 'bubble' in July but just normal economy :(
Me and my partner wish we could go this often 😭
Thanks so much for watching !
Luke’s spotted a sale ! Ha Ha
Haha, he was off into that store!
