  • If you’re running late and need to get to Los Angeles International Airport as quickly as possible, consider taking a taxi.
  • To get wheelchair assistance at Orlando International Airport (MCO), ensure that you inform your airline 48h before your flight. This way, they will include a note on your reservation record indicating that you require special assistance.
  • If you plan on leaving your car at Los Angeles International Airport, go for the off-site parking spots instead of the ones located on-site. In most cases, off-site parking lots charge lower rates compared to the parking lots and garages inside the airport.
