NEWS: Orlando Airport Adds a NEW Nonstop Flight to Disney World

There are a lot of things to consider when you’re planning a trip to Disney World.

Orlando International Airport

You’ll need to figure out a budget, as well as where you’re going to stay and what kind of park tickets you’ll need. You’ll even have to figure out how LONG you’re going to visit Disney World for. Of course, you’ll also have to actually GET there, which, for many of us, means flying. The good news is, though, that Orlando International Airport is getting new flights almost every day. Now, ANOTHER new flight has just been added to Orlando Airport.

According to The Orlando Business Journal, low-cost Canadian airline Porter Airlines will soon add a new flight to Orlando from Nova Scotia, Canada. The flight will offer service from Halifax Stanfield International Airport to Orlando International Airport starting on December 6th, as well as 14 weekly departures on its existing routes to Toronto and Ottawa.

Porter Airlines’ new Florida schedule will feature up to 126 weekly departures from cities it currently flies from, including Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal, and Halifax. The airline will also start flying to Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Miami, and Tampa, starting this winter from West Palm Beach.

It seems that Florida is a popular destination for Canadians. In 2023, international travel to Orlando surged, led by Canadian visitors to the state. A record 1.26 million Canadians traveled to Orlando in 2023. Now, Canadians have a new option on how to get there.

Of course, getting to Orlando International Airport is only part of getting to Disney World. You’ll also need ground transportation from the airport to Disney World. Several options are available, though, including renting a car, getting a rideshare service like Uber or Lyft, or using a shared shuttle service like Mears Connect driven by Sunshine.

However, getting around Disney World is super easy — and FREE. You can grab buses, the Monorail, the Skyliner, and boats to get around the resort.
