In this Disney World on a Budget MEGA vlog, I cover Travel Day with Virgin Atlantic in their economy classic cabin from London UK to Orlando Florida. I use the Mears Connect transfer service as I head to check-in to Disney's most affordable on-site hotel, Disney's All Star Sports. There I give you a room tour and share my money saving tips and tricks throughout two days in the theme parks. ✨🔑 JOIN THE MOOOORNING CLUB: https://www.patreon.com/adamhattan Unlock the magic within, with exclusive access to bonus content, a members Instagram, entries to competitions, welcome gifts and more (subject to membership tier). ✨ COMPETITION Enter here: https://adamhattan.com/pages/competition Competition closes Sunday 24th May 2026 at 23:59 BST.

I share how you can book an ecconomy classic round-trip with Virgin Atlantic for as little as £271, transfer from Orlando International Airport to Walt Disney World for $16 per person, and save 25% on a room-only reservation at Disney's most affordable on-site hotel, Disney's All Star Sports Resort. I start out my journey at London Heathrow where I show the economy self check-in and bag drop process at Virgin Atlantic's check-in area at Terminal 3. I then pass through security and share where I like to sit when not using paid-for lounges. Onboard my Virgin Atlantic flight, I sat in 52A aboard their A350-1000 aircraft right by the toilet. I share each step of the flight, including a review of my economy Chicken Tikka Masala meal, drinks service, and Mile High Tea. Landing in Orlando, I pass through the A and B terminal, while hinting that this might be changing with rumours of Virgin Atlantic flying into to Terminal C from late April. I navigate to level 1 where I check-in for Mears Connect and show the coach transfer process. Arriving at All Star Sports, I give you an overview of the check-in area, lobby, merchandise store, quick service restaurant, arcade, bar and pool area. My room was a preferred rate (which ended up cheaper than a standard room at All Star Movies) and located in the American Football section. I lucked out with a room on the backside of the turf, on level 3, and without a connecting door. Without a doubt the quietest room I've ever had at All Stars Resort. Throughout two days in the parks, I cover my budget friendly tips and tricks to help you save throughout your holiday in Walt Disney World. This POV style should help you see money saving tips in action to help you integrate these tips into your planning. I visit Disney's Animal Kingdom, Epcot and Magic Kingdom. I dine at Yak & Yeti quick service, Boatwrights at Port Orleans Riverside, Sanaa at Disney's Animal Kingdom Lodge, Columbia Harboar House at Magic Kingdom, and check out a festival stand for a delicious and affordable brunch at Epcot.

Pandora still looks great after all these years! 🌳
I love how Adam is doing a budget trip and the universe said “don’t worry we know you like leg room so here is an empty row” 😂
Adam, I have a confession… since listening to your videos, I can no longer say Good Morning anymore, it’s Mooooorning everyday now… 😂😊
Another budget friendly tip! Buy the kids meals!!! They usually are perfect as you are going around the parks and typically are a great portion!
Really enjoying the change up to see a more budget or average trip and not a plus-upped version.
No neighbors on the plane and first stop with Mears!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 celebrate good times
You have brought my passion for Disney World back Adam, thank you. My last visit was with my husband, who has since passed away, but I'm now planning a trip with my mom next year. Thank you so much.
I love how casually say “my friends Tim and Jen” 🤣 what an elite team 🤩🤩
Great vid, but I was hoping for a bit of a price breakdown at the end. Flights, accommodation, park tickets etc.
Love my Adam vlog watching time❤️ I will say that it’s hilarious when Gary isn’t with you and I hear you saying certain things or phrases and I can see the look on Gary’s face in my mind immediately😂 also could see in my mind Gary’s face pull when the lady on the plane starts speaking for the safety video😂😂
My favorite hack is Animal Kingdom is ALWAYS the best for shopping! Nobody goes to that park with merchandise in mind so it has the best range for plus sizes
Loved watching this vlog, good to see someone doing a budget Disney as not everyone can afford expensive hotels. me and my husband watch all your vlogs and love watching you and Gary x
Love this vlog! As a family of four, we can’t afford all the luxuries including lightening lanes, so very happy to take our view into consideration ❤
Great timing on this vlog. I’m heading for my 1st solo trip in 2 weeks. Brightline from Miami after a non Disney cruise. I did buy the dining plan but I love your budget meal ideas. I’m on a budget. Excellent info about how tickets work you did make sense lol. I have your first Disney guide book and glad to hear to have an updated one. Buying it today. I’m a travel agent so I use your guides and vlogs to help educate my clients. Thank you for all your hard work. I really enjoy watching your content.
Truly, nothing makes me happier than watching an Adam Hattan Disney video! Thank you!!
My youngest and I watched the whole *mega* vlog last night and loved every second of it! 🥳
Just realized according to the dates you seemed to be at WDW, it was Presidents week in the U.S. so that means schools are off and families go on vacation. That was the reason for the crowds during your stay
Thanks for this, been trying to figure out if we can do a budget Disney World trip while saving for IVF to be able to go before the treatment as never been, and would be different with a child and a while before could go on every ride without swapping. Would love to see a vlog when Universal UK opens where you meet up with Tim and Jen :)
Loving the budget vlog, it shows more people can do Disney world and I think everyone should be lucky enough to visit just once in their lifetime. 😊
I mean there's this budget, then there's the budget way we did when I was a kid: stay on international drive, eat breakfast in a local buffet restaurant, pack food from said buffet restaurant to take in the parks for lunch and only buy fake Disney merch outside of the parks! Memories of good times!
