Kristen McCaaJune 16, 2013Get there EARLY on a Sunday - tons of tourists flying home... crazy long security lines.
Gate areas need a refresh. Food choices are limited once you go to gate areas.
Melle HartleyMarch 1, 2014If you don't fly first class pay the additional fee to be a preferred access customer!!
The TSA here won't care about your flight schedule. They'll play "change the maze" with the queue and delay you an extra half hour at the checkpoint with no remorse.
Brett FarmiloeMay 5, 2011Airport open 24 hours. Fly in at midnight, catch a few AM winks, save a couple hundred bucks on a hotel. But maybe that's just me. Free wifi too.
This airport us huge. Get here early to avoid being rushed to catch your flight.
I like the part where my rights were violated and I was treated like cattle. And the shuttle ride.
Sandra FoytDecember 10, 2012Good to know expected waiting times, especially since they seem to be accurate.
Sprawling airport that always seems to be ridiculously busy. Show up two hours early even with pre check. Good luck finding a seat near your gate. $9 for a kind bar and OJ. Ridiculous.
Better bring your batteries. There's no place to charge your electronics.
Baggage claim takes forever so try your best to only use carry-on luggage.
ALWAYS give yourself more time to go thru security here. Always multiple lines, and always slow'
Jesus SedanoJune 7, 2011United employees were so awesome. I was escorted through TSA and got through so fast! Awesome staff at United!!
HILDA FRANCOJuly 31, 2010get there early and dont have a bunch of carryons with stuff u are not going to need it only holds up the security line and have your documents and information ready when checking in
Stop off at LUSH for great products. They'll even package in travel size containers for security clearance.
MischaMarch 28, 2015I quite don't get the design of the airtrain, but hey it's just an airport it would help to get you places
Luis AliceaAugust 17, 2014Large airport with lots of food options! TSA is a mess, as it is everywhere else.
Pauline FallonMarch 16, 2012TSA security lines are not defined well. Watch out for things in carry-on the person questioning an object on X-ray machine doesn't pass size/shape etc info on to person searching your bag PIA
Patrick RutherfordDecember 10, 2015Yes it is the gateway to the happiest place on earth but the airport is one of the worst. No place to eat or drink past security. Lines are long and the tram is horrible especially late at night.
SamAugust 14, 2011The security lines..though they tell ya there are 8 lines...use the far right...it's the body scan but will move thu through!
Melony IsaacOctober 23, 2022Good bye Orlando and Disney World specifically because the rest of Florida doesn't exist.
Security lines are horrible in the early AM.. They allow employees in the same security line as regular passengers and give them priority which holds up the line for people actually traveling!!!
Kirsten AlanaFebruary 17, 2012the "expert traveler" line is a joke and there's no skipping the line if you're status or first class -- absolutely get to MCO early
Dani BJune 27, 2013Alaska airlines check in counter only opens a few hours before flights. Today, a thursday, it's 3:45pm. Prepare to wait in an area with no seating except the dirty carpet.
BernieMay 26, 2012Get here at least 2-3 hours or else be prepared to be part of a cluster *insert cuss word here*
Rental cars are in both terminals make sure you know where your reservation is- Rich ThatcherJanuary 26, 2013The TSA check point looks like a horror show of red tape, but it actually is a breeze to get through: have patience.
Women's restroom on level one near the elevators have free feminine products
Joe EratoMarch 26, 2013Only some have to take off shoes...shoe rule= pointless. TSA started because of box cutters.... Pocket knives now allowed... TSA= pointless.
Busy airport, but security lines move fast (prob 30 minutes). To cross over from Terminal A to B, go to the 3rd floor and then cross over.
Michelle ClemonsJuly 12, 2013Make sure everything is packed the way they like.... Unless you want your bags opened up in front of others.
They do not sell gum here at all. It's a "clean" airport. Lolz. Bring it with you if you need it for ears.
DenisAugust 10, 2014On our way to CT! So many people at the airport in the early morning. Quite surprising.
Chad LosebyDecember 25, 2011Make sure to dump your water bottle prior to security. Fill it back up with good, cold water (and ice!) for $0 at BK in Terminal A.
Delta voucher holders beware - don't believe Delta when they say you can use the food vouchers in the hotels they put you up in. Not all hotels accept them specially Spring Hill. Use at airport only
