Always geab a ticket because Epass Sunpass isn't always reliable when you come back! A lot of times when you exit the airport you can get stuck!!

Thanks Nevil

[@starryeyes8980]

Thank you for all the information! This year will be my first time arriving/departing out of this terminal and it's great to see where i can get a lyft and where i can claim my bags too. Appreciate the very helpful tips :D

I just came home from Orlando. When I took the shuttle bus from terminal c to b, the bus was on the same level as the baggage claim. I did not need to go down to level 1

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Good to know

[@hcorday]

We flew into Terminal C on February 2. Still not able to rent a car from Alamo in Terminal C. Had to take a shuttle bus to Terminal B. But the bus now picks up outside the baggage claim area on Level 6. My first impression: Beautiful building, but not functionally designed at all. Lots of walking, lots of escalator trips. The biggest positives: Plenty of shops and places to eat post-security, lots of check-in kiosks at JetBlue.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Sounds an accurate review of TC

Thanx for showing this, will be sticking to A and B, as you say long ways to walk with luggage to tram or shuttles...

Currently a hike until they get rental cars, but that won’t cure the No moving walkways issue

[@LOUFOX100]

Thank you both for the great video!!! We fly over in May over to terminal c and wouldn’t of had a clue if it wasn’t for your video. Mears Connect and Sunshine Flyer apparently onto pick up at Terminal , so we have to long walk to do to get over there!!! Thank you both

Did this walk in November,after 9 hour flight not great ,there were loads of complaints about the lack help for disabled guests

Just blows my mind the lack of moving walkways Glyn

[@darrenepton1247]

Hi we arrived on 2nd January 2023 we arrived at terminal C with BA.We had a car booking with budget car hire and as we came out from arrivals we checked in with budget & Avis and we collected our hire car. From terminal C .

[@ThemeParkBazza]

That’s great , as you saw from the vlogs their desks were empty and the sign told people to make their way to A and B ( that was filmed Dec 31st)

[@darrenepton1247]

Yes I deffo agree long terminal to walk round

[@tony5006]

As you say some moving walkways would be a great addition to this building for sure and rental car pick-up and drop-off must be coming and hopefully soon. Happy to say it won't affect us as we're dyed in the wool Virgins🙂

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Still blows my mind they did not put the walkways in as part of the design

[@tony5006]

@@ThemeParkBazza I totally agree

[@BroadwaysAway]

Thanks for all the tips Bazza. Our turn for terminal C end of November. Hopefully it’ll be a lot more on point by then 😊

[@ThemeParkBazza]

It should be , but they can’t magically add moving walkways unfortunately

[@HarryPotterTheGreat]

Another great video! Thanks Bazzas. Best to avoid BA and Aer Lingus!

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Well depending on price it may be worth it , but be aware what awaits for you when you arrive

[@garyw1594]

Came back Monday with ba. Nightmare 15 minute walk to bag claim, uphill! Luckily as green card holders went through c channel, but tourist coming through d channel must have taken at least 2 hours. Only 1 place to get food airside [shake shack]. Only highlight was ant and dec were on out flight!

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Hopefully they get more food places soon, blows my mind they did not include moving walkways in the design

[@gabrielabr23]

Great video. Terminal C is too big and not handicap friendly, you need roller skates to get from the parking lot to the terminal. Forget the free parking time of 20 minutes, it will take you longer to walk from the parking lot to the terminal one way. Thank God we like to arrive at least 3 hours before departure time. I wish I had seen this video before taking my mother to that terminal two days ago to avoid the headache. Unfortunately, JetBlue is our primary carrier and Terminal C will be the departure and arrival terminal. Thanks.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Sorry you had all those hastles, Gabriela

[@motionx13]

Thank you. Actually very useful. Coming down in a month through terminal C and renting a car (not from Sixt). Its nice to know what to expect and how much time it may take. Also the drive to the terminal when returning so not to be confused helps a lot. 👍

[@jamesmackenzie7998]

Arrived on Tuesday last week, was a huge hike to immigration from the BA plane, the. Again to the car hire! Will definitely factor in the next flight BA or Virgin

[@tuzanne]

A good reason to use Virgin as still uses the old terminal.

[@raebirchall7896]

I flew into terminal C in October from UK the walk from the plane to baggage hall was almost all uphill and a long walk. The baggage took 40 minutes to arrive then kept getting stuck then the walk you have shown to get the tram to terminal B to get mears coach was exhausting and the walk through the car park to get to it in the heat hauling suitcases was crazy. If you have small children or as you say mobility problems it is not easy. Also the departure lounge had no restaurant just starbucks and a small pizza place. Unless BA flights are a lot cheaper I will book virgin for my next visit as they still go into terminal B. Thanks for your vlog as things do not seem any better.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Hopefully it improves soon, I am just shocked how it ended up like this as a brand new terminal

[@HarryPotterTheGreat]

@@ThemeParkBazza The place looks "soulless".

[@sjarvis8617]

There was more shops open and places to eat in December, very expensive tho, terminal seems too big, and as for baggage we waited over an hour!!

[@tmca19]

Guys thanks for the shows - just wanted to check, if you know, Does Terminal C have the Visitor Toll Pass booth in it or do you need to travel to terminal A for that ?

So… I like the lounge there, it was very nice. The gates are good, nice and big. My biggest complaint was when we landed, our bags took 90 minutes to come out and leaving, because of the long walk, the crew got to the gate late so we were late departing. I think they’ll iron out the kinks. I do like the terminal overall.

So weird, this all used to be cattle pasture, all of St. Cloud was rural until Walt Disney came to town. Tell everyone to go to Daytona and cocoa, let’s keep the local beach super duper secret lol (NSB).

Omg it was a shambles in October with no one knowing what was happening and wasting your time with a bus transfer to get the car hire in the other terminals. Added over an hour to the time😢

We’re going with Aer Lingus in March so if you hear car rental updates , it would be great if you let us know. It was so handy heading straight to car rental while family did baggage pick up but that doesn’t look possible now

Will do, we are flying Virgin next so will be from the other terminal

[@leandrobragasp]

Me too. I’m going with Azul in March. My first time at terminal C. I heard that MCO is providing a bus at level 6 (arrivals) direct to rental companies at terminals A/B, so people dont need to walk that much to get the tram or the bus mentioned on level 1, that also goes to those terminals. Thanks for the video!

Thank you Lynn

[@mwood3237]

My main problem with Terminal C is, it is too clinical looking, spacious and modern design, but nothing to indicate you are in Orlando!. This is the number one holiday destination in the world for families, and they arrive here to a bland airport which could be anywhere. It needs some pizazz, something to project the colours and wildlife of central Florida, plus much more to showcase Disney and Universal. Its a bit of a let down after Terminals A and B. Tampa have done wonders with their new flamingo sculpture. I dislike Terminal C so much. The powers in charge need to make it impressive for all the little kiddies who excitedly arrive in Orlando for the first time! 😒 I love this informative video, very well done for explaining so well how to navigate this Terminal which is so badly designed.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

I get you we flew through the airport recently. Vlog coming soon

Hello, thanks for the tour. Wondering if you had notice disability/wheelchair availability upon arrival to the entrance areas?

[@ThemeParkBazza]

You normally h e to contact the airport and airline to prebook disability support upon arrival to the airport . They will provide a wheelchair and a team member to get you through the airport

So you can drop your hire car off but not pick one up from c is that right. I am in full on planning mode today and trying to decided if its worth hiring a car. I will need to have wheelchair assistance have you heard any feedback on how efficient this is from C. I love this type of vlog as it helps me " see" what I will be met with when I land.

At the moment, you can drop off Cars, but Sixxt is the only company allowing you to pick up from Terminal C

[@GeorgeD987]

I too was there in October like many others it was a nightmare - With four young children the walk just to get the suitcases was long enough - Their new baggage machine kept breaking down and getting stuck no staff around its like a ghost town, Eventually someone showed up and they had to switch baggage machines which ment loading/unloading it all again 2hrs later we finally started moving again - Its then an absolute mission walking to the shuttle bus over to the hirecars in the other terminal - A really unpleasant experience with poor signage and not enough staff to help, Felt like Tom Hanks in the Terminal movie stuck without a clue where to go.

[@ThemeParkBazza]

Sorry you had such a bad experience Paul. I am hearing rumblings that they are looking how to add moving walkways but we shall see.

Very helpful vlog... we are flying into terminal c on Aer Lingus having always flown Virgin into the other terminal. We usually jump in a Mears Cab from the other terminal to our accommodation. Can you get a Mears cab from C or do we have to get over to the other terminal. Thanks Charlotte xx

We flew in November from Ireland on Aerligus and arrived 1 hour early but gate wasn't ready so stuck on plane for an hour then took 1.5 hours for luggage. Eventually got luggage so had the Uber app on phone and we ordered an Uber which came pretty quick. Just to note that the WiFi signal was not great outside on my phone so had the family keep a watch for the car. Ubers are great to get around. Also good value for international drive is the iride tickets but the frequency of the buses can be hit or miss. Still love Orlando so enjoy
