Which terminal at MCO for Virgin Atlantic please?

Dear all,

Does anyone know which terminal at MCO Virgin Atlantic flies from (to Gatwick)?

I have googled it, but am getting conflicting answers!

Many thanks.

VS depart (and arrive ) from gates 70-99 on side B monorail 4. If you need to check in though their desk is on side A.

If you can check in at Disney Springs then go straight to security at gates 70-99.

Pleasure. May have phrased my last sentence badly. Anyone can check in at Disney Springs if you're on Virgin metal - what I meant was if you choose to check in at DS you go straight to gates 70-99 security and don't need to go to the VS check in desk at the airport.

As someone who has arrived in Sanford for all but one of our trips I am really daunted by MCO. I have looked at the maps and read all I can but it looks so complicated compared to Sanford

If you go to the link that I posted and find the "International Arrivals Guide" there's a very useful photo walk through.

I can't repeat it all obviously but if you arrive on a direct UK flight - VS, BA or TC (and maybe Norwegian) you'll land at gates 70-99 on side B monorail 4. The very simple route is immigration hall, queue, immigration officer, baggage claim, up to monorail to main concourse.

If you can manage your luggage and any children, strollers etc on an escalator keep it with you. Ignore what they call courtesy baggage transfer which sends your luggage across independently but in inclement weather can cost you an hour.

It's very intuitive, lots of signage and a planeful of travellers to follow.

What next for you? Car hire, DME, Uber ?

Thank you so much, we are renting a car from Alamo and you have explained that bit to me already

The video I just watched on you tube just totally confused me even more. The woman on it was talking about escalators and different levels and the airport looked huge. We last flew there in 1995 and I can’t remember a thing.
