    Good Points: Smaller airport.Easier to navigate.Friendly staff.Outdoor smoking deck available after passing through security.


    Bad Points: Further from Orlando's theme parks/big attractions.


    General comments: I've been flying to Orlando Sanford airport for many years. I prefer it to the very busy and crowded Orlando International airport. Sanford is small and easy to get around although recently it has been developing and growing. If you are a smoker like me, this is one of the few airports left with an outdoor smoking deck available after passing through security.Queues for rental cars etc. are usually smaller and staff generally bright and friendy.Orlando International airport may be a better bet for those visiting the big theme parks and attractions as it is closer. If you are renting a car, however, I would think this makes little difference.

    Clean friendly, outside sitting area, bar and shops. Used Sanford twice, never found any bad points. We flew back to the UK when the airport was on amber alert we were delayed for 12 hours, Manchesters fault. What a great day we had sat out side in the sun. If I had to be delayed this would be the airport for me. I love this airport nice and small security was spot on I felt safe and at ease here will be returning in September 08 and looking forward.

    I have just had the pleasure of flying via Orlando Sanford Airport, and as the other reviews suggest, it is small and rather compact, but it is clean and it functions very well. The check-in area seems very cramped for the amount of people who travel throughout this airport, and the security check-in does not match that of the traffic expected in the summer months, so do arrive early.

    Once in the lounge there is one duty free shop of standard size, so don't expect too much here, but they do ...

    We flew into Orlando Sanford July 21 and out on August 4. As in the previous review we were kept waiting on the tarmac on arrival because they don't seem to be able to cope with more than one aircraft at once!

    Again a very long wait to clear US customs with no air conditioning and another long wait for the baggage. On departure we had luckily taken advantage of a 'free time' check-in service offered by Travel City Direct, but other passengers waited for three hours to check in. There was a l ...

    Orlando Sanford Airport - Stay away fromt this airport at all costs!! I was connecting in Sanford from an international location so I got the joys of customs plus going through security again with my next flight scheduled to take off in less than 2 hours. First we land and the gate crew isn't ready, then it takes the better part of an hour to get checked baggage with long periods where there were no bags on the belt, then customs has all our luggage x-rayed when they were just talking to each o ...

    We flew into Orlando Sanford last June, they kept us on the aircraft for ages as the arrivals hall was full. Then took way over two hours to clear immigration, another thirty minute wait for the luggage. There appears to be no air conditioning at this airport and people had to leave the immigration queue to lie down. This airport is dreadful and simply can't cope with the traffic it receives. The services airside are appalling, hopeless choice of overpriced food and drink and the duty free is a ...

    Orlando Sanford Airport is a nice, little airport but what I would say if your flying there is, don't expect too much!!

    When your flying out of Sanford try and arrive quite early. The check in area, though large, is always crowded and involves a long wait to check in. My advice would be try and get there as soon as check-in opens and then take a ride down to Sanford and have a look around before returning your rental car and jumping on your flight in the time you have left over.

    Once throu ...
