Navigating the airport can often feel overwhelming, but if you're heading out of Orlando International Airport (MCO), there are several strategies you can use to ease your journey.

Traveling can sometimes involve unavoidable long waits, but when flying out of MCO, a little prep can significantly cut down your time at security or deal with potential gate delays.

One major tip is enrolling in TSA PreCheck, which allows for faster security screening. Once enrolled, you won't need to remove shoes, belts, or certain electronics, and you can zoom past regular lines.

For those not using TSA PreCheck, MCO Reserve is a fantastic alternative. This service allows travelers to book a specific time slot to go through TSA security, reducing stress and pretty much guaranteeing a swifter process.

Another essential practice is checking the real-time security wait times and flight statuses online at flymco.com to better prepare and adjust your schedule.

Also, don't forget that starting May 7th, you must have a REAL ID or an accepted alternative to fly domestically in the U.S. If not, you won't make it past the TSA checkpoints. So, double-check your IDs well in advance of future flights.

These tips are invaluable for a smoother experience at MCO. Do you have any other time-saving airport hacks? Share them below!
