    If you are in Terminal B and 30-59 go to Zaza and get a coffee and Cuban sandwich and you must get the sandwich pressed. Really good.

    Always a great place for Disney toys, good and safe. Easy to be around totally connected to surroundings in Orlando and Hotels

    You won't mind arriving early since there's good food and shopping. Food prices are reasonable. You'll see plenty of employees and pilots eating here.

    Fair amount of selection for restaurants. Be sure to get here extra early if you have a flight during the day. Security gets longer and longer as the day goes on. Crappy WiFi.

    Easy to navigate if you follow the signs. If lost, just ask someone, people are friendly. Also, if you get delayed there are a bunch of shops to see.

    3.4 oz or less in any liquid or aersol product. Pack toiletries at the top of your luggage in case you are asked to pull it out. Bring Patience with you.

    Not too big, very organized and nice but with few VIP lounges that in holidays are all full (be ready for the wait list)

    Make a reservation with an outside parking service-especially around Holiday Season. We are locals, and thought 'it will be fine. Those places are huge.' NO. Struck out. Now have to pay $17/day @MCO.

    When going through TSA lines get in the right most lanes. They filter to the same queue that goes to the right so the left lanes get jobbed while all the right ones keep filtering in before you!

    Spending any time at all in this airport is reason enough to get TSA precheck. The line is secretly hidden in between those strollers. But once you find it, you're thru security flying like it's 1999.

    STAY AT THE HYATT. Seriously great hotel right on top. Heated pool, great service, request a balcony with a runway view.

    Check-in and security lines here are always long. Just wait it out & be patient. You'll get there eventually. Plus the staff are really friendly & take the time to entertain you while you're waiting.

    TSA Orlando. I paid for the opportunity to go through pre check. So when that line is than. The regular one we notice. Because they start taking off shoes and belts also taking out little baggies

    Use the WiFi - it's good. Oh, and to those moaning about expert lines - there are signs saying "use the right line" but no indication of which line is which! (I went in expert line by accident)

    Besides O'Hare, MCO is one of my favorite airports. Clean and tons of stores to look through when waiting for your flight.

    If flying out of terminal B, I recommend Nature's Table for breakfast. Just had a delicious mediterranean breakfast burrito.

    Security line move slow even in tsa pre. need to take shuttle to/from your actual gate which is a hassle. The gates themselves are quite nice with outlets, usb plugs, and cup holders at each chair.

    Security will always be a challenge here, even with Precheck due to the high number of families who severely overpack. Allow extra time!

    Taxi stand gives you a slip with the cab company and car number of your cab. Therefore, if you forget something in the cab you know which one you were in. Nice little touch to their customer service!

    Big airport, make sure you leave enough time between flights to get where you need to go.

    Okay, let's just call a spade a spade...there are NOT that many bars in this airport. That means that big Outback that you see as you approach the big split is the most likely place you'll get a drink

    The wifi without limitations alone is worth the thumbs up! 👍🏼 I do enjoy flying in and out of MCO.

    Remember: tourist central, usually with multiple small children. Special line for 'expert' air travelers which is mostly quick and painless unless a family who doesn't read signs hops in the line...

    Security can be a nightmare. Thank goodness for TSA pre-check and CLEAR lanes you can sign up for. I live here and travel often so it's worth the cost.

    Be careful with the security check point, 99% of the time is crazy crowded so take your time and be patient

    if u are looking for food in terminal A, I recommend eating before security. Terminal A has a mexican place, a burger joint, a italian place, and ice cream

    Security isn't as bad as everyone says. As long as you use common sense (arrive early, especially on holidays and weekends, get your liquid out, etc.) you'll be just fine.

    There is enough ports for plugs even where you sit each seat has a plug. Wi-Fi signle is strong. Lots of place to grab somethijng to eat.

    I've traveled through this airport. It's big, clean, and comfortable. However, security is poor, and airline staff are not very helpful. You can help yourself - have everything ready - shoes off.

    Don't be alarmed if you have to deal with customs in Orlando. Very friendly. You'll have to exit customs, take tram to main terminal, exit, and then go through security again to connect to your gate.

    You take a mono rail from all gates to the main terminal. Pick up your bags and ground transportation. Disney World is about a 45 minute drive.

    Really gorgeous, clean, and organized airport. Fast and friendly staff and security. Lots of places to eat and shop to kill time. However I feel flights are always delayed here.

    Love Zaza Cuban Cafe at the 40 's gates. Their Cafe con Leche, their Chai Tea & their guava pastalitos are all yummy!

    Rental car desks are in the same building as baggage claim. And car pickup is a 2 min walk. Very convenient.

    A time capsule from 1985. Upon arrival, ask Marty McFly if you’ve arrived at the correct decade.

    It's a nice airport to fly into. While it's expansive, it doesn't feel "too large." Easily navigable. The Disney products here are expensive, though, but convenient for those last-minute gifts.

    Lot’s of travelers! There is a mixture of excited children rested and ready to get to Disney confined with exhausted, overstimulated, children who thought they would never have to leave. Chaos!

    If you are going to A terminal the elite or A+ security line is on the right side to the right of clear. First line on the left side of the right security lines. It's a bit shorter.

    If you travel out of here often, it's totally worth it to join CLEAR (www.clearme.com). Expedites security tremendously. I usually make it from check-in to my gate in 10-15 minutes.

    I’ve flown out airports around the world and MCO’s security line is among the worst designed hands down. Confusing, inefficient, and crowded.

    Issue delayed us by ten minutes waiting for plane door to open, but that meant luggage was arriving on baggage claim right as we showed up. Overall, good!

    The priority security line is tucked away. Make sure to find it if you have status as it will save you so much time. This airport gas the busiest security line II have ever seen in the morning.
