MCO is the busiest and largest airport in Orlando. It is located six miles from downtown and serves most major airlines. In comparison, SFB is a smaller airport—though still one of the busiest in the area. It is farther away from Disney World and downtown Orlando, making it less popular for tourists.

Orlando International Airport (MCO) is closest to Disney World. It is about 20 miles from the theme park, which makes reaching Disney World via rental car quick and convenient. The Orlando airport is one of the busiest in the country, and Disney World tourism certainly attracts a significant portion of those visitors.

There are no indoor smoking areas in the Orlando International Airport. However, there are smoking areas located outside the terminals that are equipped with ashtrays. Passengers wishing to smoke before departure must do so before passing through security, as there are no smoking areas beyond that point.

You should plan to arrive up to three hours before your international flight departure, and two hours before a domestic flight. Orlando International Airport is a particularly busy airport; it consistently ranks as one of the top 10 busiest airports in the United States. Plan for enough time to return your rental car and get through security with time to spare before initial boarding.
