Orlando Airport, located in Florida and currently one of the most popular and largest airports in the United States, was originally built as an army and was intended for the United States Air Force. Initially it was named Airfield No. 2, then Pinecastle, then McCoy (in honor of the pilot who crashed there during the tests). This airport was actively used as a military base during World War II, the Korean War and Vietnam. In the early 60s, the airport's military activities began to decline, and in 1975 Orlando began to officially accept civil and commercial aircraft. The expansion of the airport was limited in size due to the nearby lakes and various buildings. But the redevelopment project to turn the military base into a major international airport was so successful that Orlando received its first 5 million passengers in 1978. The modernization of the airport has not stopped since then, today Orlando has 2 terminals, 4 huge halls, over a hundred gates. There is a hotel directly at the airport. The airport receives both passenger and cargo flights, serving more than 50 million people a year. A cozy modern airport will delight its guests with spacious, bright waiting rooms, cafes and lounges for families with children, there are Internet and currency exchange offices, car rental counters and duty-free shops. Orlando is located a few kilometers from the city, it facilitates transfer to a minimum, however, if you want to diversify your vacation experience, be sure to rent a car and then Florida will open to you from the Gulf Coast to the Atlantic Ocean.
