About MCO Airport

Orlando International Airport is a major public commercial service airport located six miles (10 km) southeast of the central business district of Orlando, a city in Orange County, Florida, United States. It is the busiest airport in Florida (by the number of passengers) owing to Orlando's popularity as both a tourist and business destination.

The airport serves as a secondary hub for AirTran Airways, and a mini-hub for Delta Connection carriers Chautauqua Airlines and Freedom Airlines. MCO is a focus city for Delta Air Lines, JetBlue Airways, and Southwest Airlines. MCO also was a focus city for the now defunct ValuJet Airlines. The airport also hosts AirTran's corporate headquarters, though the airline maintains its main hub of operations at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport in Atlanta, Georgia. The airport will also be home to a JetBlue training facility. Southwest Airlines is currently the airport's largest carrier in terms of passengers traveled; SWA carried 1/5 of all passenger traffic at MCO in 2006.

In 2006 it was visited by 34.8 million passengers, making it the 13th busiest airport in the United States on the basis of passenger traffic and the 24th-busiest in the World. It is the 15th busiest international gateway in the United States, behind Philadelphia International Airport; JFK International in New York City ranks first.

Many Central Floridians, primarily those who have arrived since the 1980s, often joke that the airport code MCO stands for "Mickey's Corporate Office" or "Mickey and Co." - Orlando being the location of the Walt Disney World Resort - but long-time residents of Central Florida know it actually stands for the airport's former name, McCoy Air Force Base, named for Colonel Michael Norman Wright McCoy, USAF, commander of the 321st Bombardment Wing at the then-Pinecastle Air Force Base. Col McCoy died in the crash of a B-47 Stratojet during the annual Strategic Air Command (SAC) Bombing and Navigation Competition that was held at the base in 1957. Pinecastle AFB was later renamed McCoy AFB in his honor the following year.

The Greater Orlando area is also served by Orlando Sanford International Airport (SFB), and more indirectly by Daytona Beach International Airport (DAB) and Melbourne International Airport (MLB). The Miami/South Florida MSA, however, is still larger and its commercial airport facilities include the Miami International Airport, the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and Palm Beach International Airport.

Orlando International Airport has a single main terminal building, connected by people mover to four airside terminals. There are passenger check-in and baggage claim facilities on the main terminal building's north side (referred to as Terminal A), and on the building's south side (referred to as Terminal B). Airsides 1 and 2 use baggage claim "A", while airsides 3 and 4 use baggage claim "B." MCO's airsides are much larger in capacity than their smaller counterparts at Tampa International Airport.

Airside 4 currently serves as the primary international arrivals terminal, however Airside 1 also handles international arrivals. Arriving international passengers who require immigration and/or customs clearance are processed through those checkpoints in the airside terminal where they arrive. After clearing US immigration, passengers collect their baggage and clear US customs.
