CHANGE OF FLORIDA AIRPORT FOR TUI

HOLIDAYMAK­ERS jetting to Orlando with TUI Airways will be landing at a new, more distant airport from 2022.

The travel giant is switching from the current Sanford – just over 30 miles from the main theme parks – to Melbourne, around 70 miles away on the Atlantic coast.

TUI says it will work with the new terminal to ‘’create an outstandin­g arrival and departure customer experience’’ with ‘’innovative passenger amenities and many other family-friendly features that will allow customers to be entertaine­d’’.

Despite the distance from the roller-coasters, Melbourne is less than 30 miles from Port Canaveral. TUI’s Marella Cruises has announced a short season of sailings from there in 2021. Visit tui.co.uk
