Orlando International Airport will cease commercial operations at 8am, Wednesday, October 9th. Employees should contact their manager directly for instructions and updates. For information regarding flights, please check with your airline.

As the government shutdown continues, the airport has received many inquiries from across the airport community wanting to help MCO’s furloughed federal employees.

Here are ways you can help:

  • Donate a $10 gift card for a gas station or grocery store. The value should not be over $10 and Visa/Mastercard/Cash are not acceptable due to federal gifting laws. Gift cards can be dropped off at Lost & Found, GOAA Executive Office Reception Desk or the GOAA HR Reception Desk.
  • Continue food drive efforts to collect non-perishable food/toiletry/baby supply donations with your employees here at MCO. When you have completed your food drive, we will arrange to have Second Harvest Food Bank collect it. Email airportcommunication@goaa.org when your group’s donation is ready.

Thank You,

MCO Airport Communications
