Southwest Airlines is a popular airline among many folks and one that you may have used to fly into Orlando International Airport for your Disney vacation. In the past, we’ve seen Southwest announce NEW non-stop flights to Orlando and other adjustments, but now they’re making plans for even bigger announcements. [Read more…]
Are you hopping on a plane in the near future?
Flying anytime soon?
As you know, there are a whole host of considerations that you have to make when finalizing your travel plans. You have to double-check that the room, and grab any last-minute travel essentials. But a big consideration that you may not have spent much time on is where you will sit on the plane. About that, we wanted to go over some info that might help you make the best decision.

There’s a major airport-to-hotel transportation update you need to know about.
Mears Connect bus
No, Disney’s Magical Express is NOT coming back. Since the Magical Express ended, we’ve seen 2 major companies essentially “fill the void” of that service, transporting guests to and from the Orlando International Airport and their Disney World hotels (for a fee). Those main services are Mears Connect and The Sunshine Flyer. And these were competing comapnies…until now.
Ready to travel? You’ll need some essentials like a good suitcase, a great pair of shoes, and (depending on where you’re going) a passport!
Do You Have Your Passport?
In the past, we’ve talked about passports, catastrophic travel mistakes, and even how to renew a passport through an easier method. But now we’ve got more passport news!
As much as we enjoy vacation, there’s no doubt that traveling can sometimes be a stressful experience.
Orlando International Airport
For those traveling by plane, there are a unique set of potential concerns that could disrupt their plans, like lost luggage, weather delays, and flight cancellations. But when it comes to on-time flights, there are some airports that tend to be more reliable than others. If you’re lucky, maybe you’ll be traveling through one of these airports on your next trip!
We know that many Disney World guests fly in and out through Orlando Airport (MCO), so we keep an eye out for all the latest airport news.
Orlando International Airport
The airport has been adding lots of nonstop flights recently, making summer travel a lot easier for many Orlando travelers. If you’ve been hoping for some more international nonstop flights, we’ve got great news — a nonstop flight to Brazil has just been added!
If you’re flying to Disney World, chances are that you’re headed to the Orlando International Airport (MCO)!
Terminal C at the Orlando International Airport
As one of the busiest in the country, the airport offers a lot of routes to other parts of the U.S. and the world. It even got a massive expansion with the addition of Terminal C last year. But now, MCO is adding MORE trip options for those coming to and from Orlando!
Many of us know how stressful and uncomfortable flying can be.
Do you travel a lot?
It seems like airports adjust how they do things all the time which means you’ve gotta prepare for changes before you even arrive at the airport. You also have to deal with questions like, are you really getting the best deal on your flight? Did you pack everything you need? (I know I’m gonna forget something important…) So many questions! And then when you’re on the plane, it’s very likely you’ll be dealing with less-than-ideal personal space and legroom. Those seats are pretty close together as-is, but what if there were more seats ABOVE you? Yes, that may become a thing.
Traveling can be very stressful.
Orlando International Airport
You’ve been there, we’ve been there. You’re hoping you packed everything, pleading with the universe you have enough time to make it through security, and are crossing your fingers you won’t hit any delays or cancelations. If you’re flying out of Orlando soon, there’s a new change you need to be aware of that may take many guests by surprise.
Memorial Day Weekend is coming and that means summer is officially starting.
Main Street USA
With most major holidays, Disney World sees an increase in crowds. And when crowds increase, that can create some problems for guests. We could see an increase in the price of Genie+ (who remembers it being $35 for Spring Break?!). We could see park pass reservations fill up and advance dining reservations get harder to find. But there is one thing that just got easier for the holiday weekend.
Our handy (and portable!) ebook guides make sure you get the best deals and can plan a vacation of a lifetime.
