Orlando is served mainly by Orlando International Airport (MCO), a large international hub handling most long-haul and major carrier flights, and Orlando Sanford International (SFB), which often caters to budget and leisure airlines. MCO sits roughly 13 miles (20 km) southeast of downtown and offers frequent shuttle buses, regular Lynx bus services and an airport train to the rental car center; travel times to the city center typically run 20–30 minutes by taxi or rideshare and fares can vary widely. Sanford is about 30 miles (48 km) north and can be cheaper to fly into with low-cost carriers, though transfers take longer — plan 45–60 minutes by car. Pros: MCO is convenient and well-connected for international and domestic transfers; SFB can be more budget-friendly. Cons: Peak periods at MCO can mean longer lines and transfer times, while SFB’s distance may add ground-transport cost and time.
Detroit Metro Airport (DTW) is the region’s primary international hub, serving legacy carriers—especially Delta—and a mix of domestic and international flights; it can feel more full-service than secondary airports. The airport sits about 20–25 miles (30–40 km) west of downtown Detroit, with travel times typically around 25–45 minutes by taxi or rideshare depending on traffic; fares often range from approximately $40–$70. Regional buses and shuttle services provide cheaper options, and a people-mover link to the airport terminals is planned long-term. Pros: extensive amenities, many nonstop routes, and strong connections. Cons: can be busy at peak times and ground transfers add time and cost compared with closer suburban fields.
