Default Arriving into MCO (Orlando)

Anyone flown a single into Orlando? I'm assuming they use 18R/36L
since both FBOs are adjacant to that runway? Any standard arrival
practices to anticipate? Assume IFR capable if that would help
things.

TIA.

Default Arriving into MCO (Orlando)

I have flown a single into MCO for the last few years after Sun and Fun. The
controllers are very accommodating and it should be very smooth to land
there.. It is also cool to land at the big class B airport.

With that said this year I had a big surprise when the level of service at
the fbo Galaxy Aviation was not what it was in the past and they nailed us
with $28.00 a night parking fee (up from $8.00 previously).

After this years problems I received many suggestions from other pilots
recommending the other local airports some that are even closer to the main
Orlando attractions.

Have a good trip...
