Before you arrive at Orlando Airport it is worth checking which side of the terminal you need to check in at (either A side or B side).  This will be determined by the airline you are travelling with. If you are being dropped off at the airport, you need to be on level 3 departures. All levels of the airport are well served by escalators, lifts/elevators and moving walkways are also available.

When you walk into the departures/check in area, you will see some self service check in stands (touch screen).  If your airline offers self service check in and you are on a domestic flight, you can use one of these kiosks rather than queue at the check in desk.

All International flights must check in at the main check in desks, which are immediately in front of you as you walk into the building.

Directions to gates are well signed.  You will pass through security and then you will board the AGT (train/monorail), which will take you to your airside (A or B) and gate. Make sure you get on to the correct train.  There is an overhead sign telling you which airside the train is going to (A or B) and the gates.  Doors on the train open and close automatically and the trains are wheelchair friendly.  The journey is only 68 seconds.

Once you have arrived at your departure area, you will find there is a good range of Orlando Airport shops and a selection of bars and restaurants to choose from.  There are also a number of internet kiosks and ATM/cash point machines and currency exchange at gates  1 to 29 (open 08.00 to 19.00).

VIP/Executive lounges are operated by Delta and United at the following gates and are for use by card holders only:

• United Red Carpet Club Gate 43
• Delta Crown Room Club Gate 60
