Spring Break 2025: Orlando Gears Up for 7.4 Million Travelers—Here’s How to Survive the Madness!
Spring Break in Orlando is always a wild ride, and 2025 is shaping up to be no different! With more than 7.4 million travelers expected to pass through Orlando International Airport (MCO) over a 44-day period, the city will be buzzing with visitors heading to the theme parks, beaches, and beyond. The busiest travel day? Saturday, March 15, when nearly 200,000 passengers will be navigating the terminal!

To help everyone fly through Spring Break stress-free, MCO is encouraging travelers to remember the Three P’s: Pack, Park, Plane.
- Pack as lightly as possible to avoid extra baggage headaches.
- Park smartly using MCO’s reservation system to secure a spot.
- Plane—as in, give yourself plenty of time to get through security and to your gate!
And let’s add a fourth “P”—Plan! Check with your airline for flight updates, use MCO Reserve to book a TSA security checkpoint time, and download the MCO App for real-time updates and navigation help inside the terminal.
Top Travel Tips to Make Your Spring Break Smoother
✔ Avoid the Airport Chaos – Instead of circling the terminals like a lost luggage cart, use the North or South Cell Phone Lots to wait for arriving passengers. Bonus: They have Wi-Fi and restrooms!
✔ Check the Busiest Travel Days – If you can, avoid flying on peak Saturdays and Sundays, which see the heaviest crowds. March 15, 16, 29, and 22 are expected to be the busiest days, each with over 190,000 travelers passing through!
✔ Practice Patience – With record-breaking crowds, long lines, and inevitable travel delays, a little extra pixie dust (and a lot of patience) will go a long way in making your trip stress-free!
