food IS a theme park
Are you flying to the Disney Parks soon? We’re here to make sure you’re properly packed and ready to go!
Let’s fly!
Air travel can be a real pain, but we’re here to help! If you’re flying with carry-on luggage, you’ll be traveling within the TSA parameters so it’s a good idea to plan ahead and grab a few essentials well before you head to the airport!
Despite the luxuries and technologies we’re fortunate enough to experience in this day and age, traveling can still be a nightmare. Commercial air travel has come a long way since the days of the first powered flight but that doesn’t mean we’re not still working out the kinks.

This is especially true when it comes to having to go through security and dealing with the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), whose job it is to keep us secure in airports and on flights. And, new data shows that the TSA has confiscated more firearms from Orlando International Airport (MCO) than any other airport in Florida — and many in the United States.
Traveling can be stressful. It’s easy to get caught up in flight changes and cancelations, especially when the weather is looking iffy. Plus, we know how hard it is to round up everyone and everything traveling with you, all while trying to make sure you’re as prepared as possible. While we’re still waiting on those proposed developments that would help make security screening easier (and potentially faster), accidents still can happen.

If you’ve ever gotten on an airplane only to get to your seat and realize that you’re missing something, you may have thought, “Well, that’s it; I’ll never find it now.” However, we’re here to show you the BEST source to reach out to when these things happen and how to reclaim your lost items.

Everyone knows that the stress of traveling and flying can cause some headaches.
Orlando International Airport
Traveling isn’t always fun, especially at airports. Navigating rideshare services to pick you up can be pretty frustrating, and if you are parking your car, that comes at a cost. There can be delays or flight cancelations. Not to mention the LONG security lines for TSA. However, in the future, security might look very different, and it’s already starting at one U.S. airport.
With the holidays kicking into full gear, that means the holiday crowds are, too!
Frontier Plane at the Orlando Airport
We’ve been keeping an eye on the crowds throughout the Disney parks, but there is another place that we like to check in on every once in a while to see what the crowds are like — and that is the Orlando International Airport (MCO). If you’ve ever flown to Disney World, you’ve probably visited this airport and maybe even heard about the nightmare it can be when it comes to crowds (we’re looking at you, TSA line). [Read more…]
When it comes to traveling, it pays off to be prepared.
Spirit Airlines at Orlando Airport
With the stress that comes with traveling, there are some essentials you NEED — and some essentials that make life easier. When these items went viral for travel– we need to admit that we were a little skeptical. However, once we tried them out we realized what a GAME CHANGER they are. We can’t promise that having these things will make your trip the smoothest trip you’ve ever taken (because let’s be real– does a smooth travel day even exist?), but it will for sure make your travel day more convenient.

If you were at the airport this weekend and thought it seemed extra busy, you were definitely correct. The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) just confirmed that yesterday, November 26th, saw RECORD-BREAKING crowds for air travel.
Orlando International Airport is VERY busy
The huge crowds of travelers trying to get home after the holiday may have encountered some issues as thousands of delays and cancelations affected U.S. airports. [Read more…]
Traveling is fun, but there is a downside if you travel by air. Airports are RARELY fun and the process of getting through security can be a lengthy one with a lot of hoops to jump through.
Orlando International Airport
Not only do you usually need to take your baggie of 3 oz. liquids out of your luggage, take your shoes off and take some of your electronics out of your bags, you also need to dig out your ID and boarding pass to show to a TSA agent even BEFORE you do all that. Of course, there are ways to skip some of that process, like TSA Precheck. However, some technology introduced last year could speed up the process even more.
Flying can be VERY stressful.

You’re trying to decide what to pack, making sure your travel to and from your hotel is all sorted out, and everything in between. Plus, you’ve got to worry about what you can and can’t bring through security. Some of these things are obvious, like liquids, but most food you can bring through just fine. However, if you’re trying to fly with THIS item, it’s a no-go.
Traveling isn’t as easy as it used to be.
Orlando International Airport
There are plenty of rules and regulations about how large bags can be and how many you can have, sometimes you have to arrive at the airport waaaaaay earlier than you think, and don’t even get us started on those TSA Security lines. Going through airport security doesn’t have to be a headache with expedited services like PreCheck and Global Entry, though. But which one is right for you? We’re breaking it all down.
