Adding a flight MCO - Miami for return leg
We are going for one week 5-12 May and I have been pricing a return flight to save the drive down to Miami.
I can get flights for 100€ per person (+ applicable bag fee) with AA the flight leaves MCO at 11.40 and arrives at MIA 12.47 our TUI flight leaves at 15.30. I just wonder if that would leave it too rushed to make the connection as Miami is a large airport. We would require assistance but I think it would mean collecting bags and going back to check in and doing security again? Since it's completely different airlines? Anyone else done this type of trip and can advise?

If you are going to book flights on separate tickets "connecting" to a long haul flight, it is always advisable to have 2-3 other ways of getting to your long haul flight in time if something goes wrong with the first flight. There won't be any agreement between AA and Tui to transfer bags, so as mentioned above you have to collect them, recheck with Tui and clear security again.

If you are going to do this the only way you can do it safely would be to get to Miami the night before. If the flight leaves late and you miss your connection it will be a voluntary no show and your only option will be to buy a new ticket to get home with no refund on the missed flight either
