One of the hardest things about travel days is dealing with airport security.
This is especially true if you’re flying out of a massive airport like Orlando International Airport (MCO) because lines can easily be half an hour to an hour long during busy times, and if you haven’t planned well enough, it could cause you to miss your flight! However, there’s a FREE way you can skip the security line at MCO, but heads up — it’s MOVED in the airport!
We absolutely love that at MCO, you can use MCO Reserve to completely bypass the security line for FREE! How this works is you hop online to MCO Reserve’s website, input your flight information and when you’ll be arriving at security, and you’ll receive confirmation allowing you to arrive at MCO Reserve during a certain period of time to go through security with NO line! It’s essentially like reserving your spot in line ahead of time and scheduling it, so they know to expect you, and it’s incredible.
However, this service isn’t available to those who already have paid to skip the lines at airports with TSA Pre-Check and CLEAR+. While MCO Reserve is open from 5AM to 5PM, your flight is eligible if you’re taking off between 6:30AM and 8:30PM.
If you’re planning to use this service flying out of MCO soon, we have to tell you that Gates 1-59 have now MOVED in the airport for the time being! They’re now located to the Terminal A entrance area instead of the B side of the Checkpoint.
