  • If you can choose when to travel, plan your Los Angeles to Orlando Airport trip for May. Fares historically average $364 round-trip in that month - typically $76 less than the most expensive month, which is June (based on the last 12 months).

  • Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) is one of the busiest airports in the country. As a result, it experiences high passenger traffic and long queues. Therefore, ensure that you arrive at least two hours before your flight is scheduled for departure. That should give you enough time to go through the long security lines.
  • To make your flight more sustainable, book a direct flight instead of connecting ones. A trip with connecting flights will have more carbon emissions since a lot of fuel is burnt during lift-off and landing.
  • 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.
