A family in the U.K. managed to fly to Florida for about $23 apiece -- cheaper than the price of one person's meal at Cinderella's Royal Table. Did they hitch a ride on Dumbo's back? Close. Actually, an online travel service called First Choice mistakenly listed the Florida fares. The Dryer family bought six tickets and hoped that Disney magic would keep First Choice in the dark. It did -- until the Dryers got back home and told the media how they had all popped across the pond for about the price of a single one-way ticket from Fort Lauderdale to Orlando. First Choice said a staff member is the one who made the Dopey mistake. The company let the Dryers get away with it and ate the $4,500 it lost.
