No worries. Had an Analyst end up in Chicago when they needed to be in Orlando for this same reason

I go from ORD to MCO which is actually Orlando, think about how it fucks with my head 😄

like

It stands for Orchard bc apparently the airport used to be an orchard so that’s how I remember it

like

Another way to remember is Orlando is MCO, pronounced “Mick-O”, because that’s where Mickey lives (actually it, like Chicago Orchard Field, is named after the airfield that preceded it, McCoy Airfield)

like

Orlando International is the former McCoy Air Force Base, hence the MCO IATA airport code.

But a Disney reference can help too :-)

An AA agent once argued w me where my checked bag was - she insisted that it was in Orlando (but my mobile app says it is in ORD) . I gave up arguing with her after 5 minutes. She was like “the system tells me it is in Orlando” for the whole time.

Lyft driver delayed picking me up 30 min, resulting in me canceling my ride and asking hotel to call me a “yellow taxi” to get to the airport because it was 5am and all ubers/lyfts were 15 min. Specifically said yellow. Hotel calls me a private lux SUV and the driver got out of the car to handshake the man who called and said hi (honestly money couldve been passed). I then get hit with a $180 ride. Marriott website says taxi should be $65. Should I complain or let it go?
