The "New Normal" for Flying Through Orlando International Airport – Inside the Magic

As the Walt Disney World Resort and Universal Orlando Resort continue their reopening measures, Orlando International Airport has taken the initiative to let all would-be visitors know what to expect during their visit.

On May 21, 2020, the TSA implemented changes to security screening at airports nationwide that reduce the potential for cross-contamination and help prevent the spread of the virus behind the pandemic. Earlier today, May 22, Orlando International Airport (MCO) shared a video of how those changed will affect their customers passing through on their way to Universal, Disney, or any of Central Floridas attractions and destinations.

They shared the video over twitter and explained, We continue to improve and adapt in order to create the safest way to travel for our customers. Heres an update on some of our procedures to ensure a healthy experience to all.

Promising to meet customers expectations and bring peace of mind to their passengers and staff, MCO will implement the following changes:

MCO strongly advises that all passengers wear protective face coverings, but face coverings are also already required on over 24 of the airlines that fly in and out of the airport. Passengers are also now allowed to carry-on up to 12 oz of hand sanitizer and are asked to wash hands frequently. Hand sanitizer stations will also be placed throughout the terminals.

There is no word yet how long these extra health measures will remain in effect, but if you are looking to be one of the first guests to walk back through the gates of Universal Studios Florida, The Magic Kingdom, or any other Orlando-area theme park, this is what MCO will look like when you arrive.
