Anyone who has ever tackled a bathroom renovation knows it's not cheap. But imagine spending MILLIONS on installing and overhauling hundreds of stalls. We were stunned too, until learning that Orlando International Airport (MCO) just started a whopping $72 million project for upgrading its bathrooms, set to finish by 2027.
This upgrade, part of the airport’s extensive multi-billion dollar renovation of Terminals A and B, will be handled by Balfour Beatty Construction at a cost of $71.9 million. It includes renovations to 61 bathrooms and the addition of 12 new ones, alongside upgrades for companion restrooms and service dog relief areas. These changes aim to accommodate the massive passenger influx; in 2024, Orlando became the world’s top travel destination with 75.3 million visitors, pushing the airport facilities beyond their limits.
Does this sound like a smart investment to you? Considering the high volume of travelers, do you think this lavish upgrade is essential? Let me know your thoughts!
