Disney World sees millions and millions of visitors every single year!
A good chunk of those guests make their way to Disney World by way of the Orlando International Airport (MCO) — it was ranked one of the top ten busiest airports in the US! We’re looking forward to the addition of a train that can take guests directly from the airport to Disney, and we’ve seen updates like new bus transportation, too! But today we’re bringing you an update about another form of transportation — airplanes!
Start booking your hotels now! According to a post on the Orlando International Airport’s Twitter, a new airline will be making its way to MCO on September 30th, 2022!
PLAY, the new airline, will fly direct from Reykjavík, Iceland, and Orlando marks PLAY’s fourth US destination! Boston, Baltimore/Washington D.C., and New York will also be destinations for the airline.
Part of the reason this is now possible is due to the addition of Airbus A321neo Long Range aircraft to the fleet. These planes have more fuel capacity, thus making the flight to Orlando possible! Check out the post from Orlando International Airport below.
A new player has entered the game! @PlayAirlines, a low-cost Icelandic airline, will start service from Reykjavík (KEF) to MCO on September 30, 2022! 🇮🇸
