High Gas Prices Are Here To Stay – But Florida Spirit Guests Still Get Away

Orlando, Florida - June 18, 2008

For families across America, summer sure has come quickly – and it couldn’t have come at a worse time.

For the first time in history, last week gas prices across the country rose to over $4 a gallon, raising the prices of everyday items along with it – food, clothing and other goods.

With children out of school for the summer, many families planned their vacations far in advance. They planned to have a great vacation getaway, where they could relax and have fun together. But that was before gas prices started a record-breaking run upwards.

For those that hoped to avoid sky-high fuel prices by taking a plane trip, there is still no escape – most major airlines are finding increasingly innovative ways to pass on fuel costs to passengers in the form of ticket surcharges and eliminated meals.

Recently, American Airlines became the first carrier to charge a fee for just one checked bag – and other major carriers soon followed suit.

Orlando, Florida is a family vacation hotspot, attracting millions of families from around the world every summer. It was already expensive for a family of four. And this is where the fuel prices have hit the hardest.

But not every company involved in the travel industry is intent on extracting the proverbial ‘pound of flesh’ from their guests.

Florida Spirit Orlando vacation homes (www.floridaspiritvacationhome.com) is one such company. This summer, they are giving their guests an incentive to visit the Orlando area for some much-needed R&R. The company is giving guests $50 to $100 fuel cards for stays for 3 nights or more in a large Orlando vacation home – free of charge and no strings attached.

Brian Brannigan, President of Florida Spirit, says, “We wanted to give families a break, because an Orlando vacation can be expensive enough. The fuel card is one way we can put some money back into our guests’ pockets. Now, they can concentrate on having a good time with their families - not on how much they have to spend on gas.”

The company offers a wide variety of Orlando vacation homes for rent. Homes are fully furnished and can accommodate large families and groups. All homes feature private pools and fully-equipped kitchens.

For families traveling to Orlando for a Disney area vacation, homes are located 6-10 miles from Disney’s main gate.

Vacationers to the Orlando area needn’t cancel their vacation plans. With Florida Spirit Orlando Vacation Homes, they can just fuel up – for free! – and go.
