\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em>Note: there is an airport that calls itself \u201cOrlando\u201d Sanford International Airport. It is not in Orlando, rather it is in Sanford which is 45 to 50 miles from WDW making transport to WDW much more expensive and requiring extra time. Also Disney\u2019s Magical Express does not service Sanford International Airport! Using this airport is not recommended unless you are renting a car and wasting your time is not a big deal.<\/em><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Arrival_at_Orlando_International_Airport_MCO_KMCO\"><\/span>Arrival at Orlando International Airport (MCO, KMCO)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When your airplane arrives at the gate you will be in one of 4 outlying gate buildings\u00a0(the airport calls these \u201cAirsides\u201d) unless you are arriving on a Jet Blue or international airline flight.. Each of these buildings has 2 to 3 corridors with gates radiating from a central area. In the central area you\u2019ll find all of the shopping and dining venues as well as the tram to the main terminal.<\/p>\n<p>Jet Blue is located in the new Terminal C, which is located to the south of the Main Terminal and its Airsides. Terminal C is independent, having its own parking, airline counters, baggage claim, TSA, and transportation options. Terminal C&#8217;s parking garage is connected to the main terminal by the same above ground, subway car style shuttles that connect the Airsides with the Main Terminal. Or shuttle buses run between the Main and C Terminals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Orlando-International-Airport-Airside-Sign.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-23173 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Orlando-International-Airport-Airside-Sign.jpg\" alt=\"Orlando International Airport Airside Map\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Orlando-International-Airport-Airside-Sign.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.militarydisneytips.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/Orlando-International-Airport-Airside-Sign-225x300.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As you exit your airplane look for and follow the signs for Terminal and Bag Claim.
