    Gate areas need a refresh. Food choices are limited once you go to gate areas.

    The TSA here won't care about your flight schedule. They'll play "change the maze" with the queue and delay you an extra half hour at the checkpoint with no remorse.

    Airport open 24 hours. Fly in at midnight, catch a few AM winks, save a couple hundred bucks on a hotel. But maybe that's just me. Free wifi too.

    I like the part where my rights were violated and I was treated like cattle. And the shuttle ride.

    Sprawling airport that always seems to be ridiculously busy. Show up two hours early even with pre check. Good luck finding a seat near your gate. $9 for a kind bar and OJ. Ridiculous.

    Baggage claim takes forever so try your best to only use carry-on luggage.

    Stop off at LUSH for great products. They'll even package in travel size containers for security clearance.

    TSA security lines are not defined well. Watch out for things in carry-on the person questioning an object on X-ray machine doesn't pass size/shape etc info on to person searching your bag PIA

    Yes it is the gateway to the happiest place on earth but the airport is one of the worst. No place to eat or drink past security. Lines are long and the tram is horrible especially late at night.

    Security lines are horrible in the early AM.. They allow employees in the same security line as regular passengers and give them priority which holds up the line for people actually traveling!!!

    the "expert traveler" line is a joke and there's no skipping the line if you're status or first class -- absolutely get to MCO early

    Alaska airlines check in counter only opens a few hours before flights. Today, a thursday, it's 3:45pm. Prepare to wait in an area with no seating except the dirty carpet.

    Only some have to take off shoes...shoe rule= pointless. TSA started because of box cutters.... Pocket knives now allowed... TSA= pointless.

    Busy airport, but security lines move fast (prob 30 minutes). To cross over from Terminal A to B, go to the 3rd floor and then cross over.

    Make sure to dump your water bottle prior to security. Fill it back up with good, cold water (and ice!) for $0 at BK in Terminal A.

    Delta voucher holders beware - don't believe Delta when they say you can use the food vouchers in the hotels they put you up in. Not all hotels accept them specially Spring Hill. Use at airport only
