WARNING: You need to know this before traveling through the Orlando airport!

The Orlando International Airport is a very busy place to travel through. Some new changes are taking place that you need to know about!

It is no secret that Orlando International Airport (also known as MCO) has only gotten busier over the past few years. This year it was named one of the 10 busiest airports in the United States.

And it makes total sense! With Disney World, Universal, Legoland, Sea World, and so many other theme parks and attractions, millions of people fly in and out of the airport every year.

With growing demand came a recent airport expansion. Terminal C boasts international gates as well as shopping and dining opportunities. It is a bustling airport and sees millions of travelers every year.

Beginning tomorrow, June 7, 2023, select airlines will relocate in the airport. MCO advises you to be aware of the important information (detailed below), but for questions regarding your specific flight contact your airline directly.

Changes for Spirit Airlines

The ticket counter/check-in area will move from Terminal B, Level 3 to Terminal A, Level 3. Baggage claim will relocate to Terminal A, Level 2, carousels 2 through 5.

Fortunately for those of you who normally fly with Spirit Airlines, there are no changes to Gate Assignments!

The ticket counter/check-in area will move from Terminal A, Level 3 to Terminal B, Level 3. They did the old switcheroo with Spirit it looks like.

Baggage claim will relocate to Terminal B, Level 2, carousels 21 or 22. And finally, Arrivals and Departures will commence operations from Gate 30-39 (Airside 3).

Changes for Breeze Airways

Finally, Breeze Airways customers will want to note these changes. The ticket counter/check-in area will move from Terminal A, Level 3 to Terminal B, Level 3. Baggage claim will relocate to Terminal B, Level 2, carousels 20 or 21.

As is the case with Spirit Airlines, there are no changes to report to Gate Assignments for Breeze Airways.

Next time take the monorail (people mover) from C to A/B. It's been around well before C opened.

Here is the real question. Has rental car pick-up opened in Terminal C or do you still have to wait for the small shuttle bus to get to Term A&B to pick-up your rental? When I flew into MCO in February no-busy time we still had to wait an hour and a half for the shuttle to get us to the pick-up area?
