Orlando area airports
I may have an opportunity to fly to Orlando from KLOM this weekend and
stay for a few days. Unfortunately, I probably won't be able to stay long enough to get to sun & fun. Any recommendations on airports that have access to rental cars and reasonable parking fees? Thanks Dave M35 |

Orlando area airports
I have had very excellent service every time I have used Galaxy Aviation at
KMCO. They have cheap rental cars right there at the fbo. They can arrange reasonable hotels nearby. Parking was $ 8.00 a night last time I was there ( at least a year ago). Verify all these details to make sure that they still apply.. Have a great trip.. Jon "dave" wrote in message . ..

Thanks Jon but but I imagine that MCO is too big for me. Seems like
KISM is the best choice. Dave M35 me wrote: I have had very excellent service every time I have used Galaxy Aviation at KMCO. They have cheap rental cars right there at the fbo.

Orlando area airports
Dave,
You should choose whichever one you are most comfortable with.. That is one of the great thing about mco they really treat the little guy great. It is a big airport and you do need to be able to communicate and navigate up to that level of airport. It is a lot of fun.. Have a nice flight whatever airport you go to.

Orlando area airports
Jon,
I've gotten similar positive comments from others about MCO. I was concerned that MCO wouldn't want to cater to small GA planes. Sounds like I was wrong. As it turns out, the trip is scrubbed for this week anyway. We're going commercial. Dave M35 me wrote: Dave, You should choose whichever one you are most comfortable with..

It is a lot of fun.. Have a nice flight whatever airport you go to. Jon I've flown into KISM (Kissimmee) twice and have received good service both times. If you get the ILS or GPS to RW 13 it takes you right over Disney World, which of course they do not normally let you do. KISM is convenient to most of the Orlando area attractios and is actually closer to Disney (and probably Sea World) than MCO. And no toll roads!! It always bugged me to come out of MCO and the first thing you see is the toll booth (although the locals know the way around it), then you go a couple of miles and there is another... I can remember (I won't say how long ago) when I first drove the Bee-line from I4 to Coco Beach, the toll for the entire length was $ .10 (10 cents) and MCO was still (only) an Air Force base and all you saw from the Bee-line were several rows of B-52 tails sticking up....
