i’m taking my first flight alone and stopping at this airport for my layover . I highly appreciate this video as my nerves are racking up closer to my vacation

[@MeganMoves]

Have a great flight and let me know if you have any questions! Glad this helped!

[@gumdrop4869]

@@MeganMovesYes, I have a question, do they go through your checked bags? how does that work? also what are some items we aren’t allowed to bring? I’m moving across the country and so I’m kind of packing everything but I’m unsure of what Can go through security!

[@MeganMoves]

@@gumdrop4869 good question! I would highly recommend going online and looking at the tsa website! There they will highlight all of the items that can and cannot be brought! Does that help?

I wish you had more views and likes the best video I've seen on how to get to your gate in MCO

[@MeganMoves]

9mm Freedom Lover thank you for the comment! I am really glad to hear you found the video helpful! I find the Orlando airport confusing so I was hoping to simplify navigating around for others. Thank you for watching and for the feedback I appreciate it! 😀

[@BevRox-ql6bf]

I watched several videos about MCO airport and this was by far the best!! Simple and explained perfectly!! Thank you!

[@MeganMoves]

Hi there! Thank you so much for the comment and Glad it was helpful! The airport can be confusing so I tried my best to simplify it! Are you flying out of orlando soon?

[@NYChic27]

This is my favorite airport. I really think people should stop and really enjoy the many shops and the wonderful water fountain!

[@MeganMoves]

I agree it is a very well done and beautiful airport! I love the open class ceilings and all of the stores before going through security! Its hard because I am usually stressed to get through security so I don't take the time to look around but I should. Thanks for watching!😀

[@bruceswenty8471]

Thanks very much for your short but important info about the Orlando Airport! We are seniors and have traveled to many airports around the country as well as Florida over the years...but NEVER flown into/out of Orlando. This looks like a midsize city! We are cruising from Port Canaveral in mid July '22 and your video will certainly be a big help.

[@MeganMoves]

Hello Bruce! Glad to hear you found the video helpful! Orlando has definitely grown in the past couple of years and the airport has been feeling the results of that! Excited to hear you have a cruise coming up and hope you have a great time! Thank you for watching and let me know if you have any other questions 😀

[@klady6759]

Thank you for showing us around, it’s a lovely airport that we are always pleased to arrive at 😀❤️👍

[@MeganMoves]

I agree K Lady, especially when they have Disney decorations! It always brings me joy to see that. Thank you for watching!😀

[@mauriciogutman2644]

Glad you made it to Pittsburgh safe and quick megan. You made it seem super easy to get in & out Orland airport

[@MeganMoves]

Thanks Mauricio! Orlando can be a tricky airport so I wanted to show people around! Thank you watching 🤩

[@louveniahope8355]

Oh my goodness thank you so much I'm thinking about taking my family next in couple months and I have no clue about flying, or how to get through the tsa, and the airport and your video have help me so much thank you

[@MeganMoves]

So glad to hear Louvenia! The orlando Airport can be tricky but looking into it ahead of time has helped me in the past! I hope you all have a great trip and let me know if you have any other quesitons!

[@TLZ]

So ill be doing an orlando trip through the pittsburgh airport. Havnt flown in a 16 years. Thanks for the assist.

[@MeganMoves]

No problem! Happy to help and have safe travels!

[@MyraB5]

Thanks for this video. I will be taking my first flight next summer so I am trying to do as much research as I can now haha since I have never been :) It was very informative.

[@MeganMoves]

Hello Myra! I'm glad to hear you found the video helpful! I have had issues navigating the airport as well and thought a video would be helpful l to simplify the process!Let me know if you have any other questions about the airport, it can be tricky but I think I covered most of it here. Have a safe flight and thanks for watching! 😀

[@MyraB5]

@@MeganMoves I do have a few questions! My first question is if you have checked baggage where do you take it so it can be put on the plane? (Might be a stupid question but I am still learning lol.) My next question would be How can I know what airside to be dropped off at (I think there is 2 sides of the airport with the different check in sections? may be wrong.) I will be taking Frontier airlines so I believe there is a certain side they have their check in areas at. Sorry if that was a lot or confusing LOL. I won't be leaving til next august but I plan on booking my flight within the next few months for better value for my budget and so I have plenty of time to do my research :) Thanks again

[@MeganMoves]

@Myra's Little Nursery No these are good questions! As far as checked bags go, when you first walk into the airport from getting dropped off at departures, you will see counters for each of the airlines. If you are flying Frontier, you will want to go to the Frontier counter with your bag to have it checked. There they will weigh it and have it sent to the plane! You are correct there are 2 different terminals at Orlando, A and B. For Frontier you will want to get dropped off at Terminal A but check your gate to make sure that is correct for your flight! Does that make sense? I have included the link to the Orlando Airport website with Frontier's info as well! www.orlando-airport.com/mco-airlines/frontier-airlines

​@@MeganMoveswe went to Orlando in 2005. Me and my dad went there a day later than the rest of the family. When we got of the tram at the other side of the airport we met up with my aunt uncle cousins and Nan

[@Sista_Diamond]

Hi Megan! I will be flying out of Orlando Airport next week for the 1st time next week. My question is, if I booked my flight online (Expedia) and have my flight # and I am just bringing carry on luggage 🧳, How and WHERE do I get my boarding pass at OIA?

[@MeganMoves]

Good question! What airline Are you flying on? If you have your confirmation number, usually you will go into the airlines app or website to retrieve your boarding pass! This can usually be done 24 hours before your flight leaves as well. Does that answer your question? Thanks for watching and have a safe flight!

[@Sista_Diamond]

@@MeganMoves Thank you for your quick response. I am flying on Delta Airlines. So, I can go to their website to get a boarding pass? Is there somewhere in the Airport to get a boarding pass? Which way is better?

[@MeganMoves]

@@Sista_Diamond if I were you I would go on their website or download the app! There are kiosks at the airport that you can get it at but there may be a line of other people trying to retrieve theirs. I would download the app ( you don’t have to create an account you can continue as a guest) and find your boarding pass that way. You can either print it out or have it on your phone! 😃

[@Sista_Diamond]

@@MeganMoves Thank you so much for your reply. Your help should make things easier for me when I fly out of Orlando in a few days. I am trying to be as prepared as possible. I really appreciate your response 🙏🏽 🌻

[@MeganMoves]

@@Sista_Diamond no problem happy to help! Have a good flight!!

[@MrCee861]

Thank you for this video, i'm planing to make a stop there with spirit, to then hop in on Jetblue. I'm a little confused, seems that after landing on Terminal A ( I believe spirit uses), I will have to go to security again in order to get to Terminal C where Jetblue is? Thanks in advance.

[@MeganMoves]

Absolutely! Glad it was helpful! Yes this is correct. When you land exit terminal a in follow signs to terminal C. You will then get on a tram that will take you to terminal C, it is a separate location. There is a separate set of security that you will need to go through to access the gates at terminal C. That is where you can find your jet blue gate! Does that help or makes sense? I hope you have a great trip and flight! 😃

[@MrCee861]

@@MeganMoves Have you been throught it, does it move fast or does it takes long to pass throught that set of security in terminal c?

[@MeganMoves]

@@MrCee861 I have been through it! There was no line when I went in the middle of the day but also the security is huge and has a lot of lanes that you can go through! So I think it is very efficient!

[@learnexplorelove1300]

How long did it take you to get through security and to your gate?

[@MeganMoves]

It depends on how long security is but I would recommend budgeting at least an hour! Security can get crazy at the Orlando Airport! Are you flying soon?

Next air plane new York

[@MeganMoves]

Safe Travels!

[@markkofi8522]

Currently a Brit on a family holiday in the U.S. I flew through here yesterday and I was not impressed. Very difficult to navigate. I was flying Delta to New York via terminal B. However on arrival at B, the airport signs seem to be intent on showing people what flights are going out of terminal A, as opposed to giving directions for the flight desks that actually go from that terminal itself.😡 Also the internal train that takes you to gates 70 to 90 has people boarding on the same side as people disembarking. Like a normal passenger station train. You can imagine the slight chaos with all the luggage people are carrying. 😡 At all other airports I've travelled through, passengers disembark through the left set of doors and once they're almost completely done, the boarding starts from the right hand side. MCO management need to go and see Amsterdam Schipol or Munich to see how a proper airport runs.

[@MeganMoves]

Yes i agree with you the airport can definitely be confusing! Especially since Orlando is a very popular travel destination. I hope you have a great rest of your holiday and thank you for watching!
