Anything to improve TSA wait times is welcome.
Try TSA pre check and the new CLEAR. Have them both it makes traveling a lot easier

I don’t travel enough to justify paying for precheck, but I have used it through the lottery 3-4 times and it’s super convenient.
The problem is ultimately total throughput capacity and the institutional memory of the staff. The Florida airports I’ve flown through post 9/11 , MCO, FLL and PBI, have all had terrible TSA waits.

I generally always fly in on that side, and I'll miss the Magic of Disney store. It's a tradition to pop in and explore it after riding the tram to the main terminal.
Guess I'll have to make the short stroll over to the Earport on my upcoming trip while the new one is being built.
These darn first-world problems!!

Another Eisner-Era Themed Store gone....Sad...
I envision an edgy Hot Topic style store featuring the new Mickey

Another non-themed generic Disney store coming...

It will likely be themed as an old abandoned airport that has been converted into a merchandise store.
You have two different stores in those images. The first image/store isn't going away. The store with the sorcerer Mickey is going away though.I remember always feeling excited once you see this after you get off the plane. I'm going to miss seeing that in the future.

Oh that’s awesome!! I was hoping to get a pic in front of the Mickey. We do it every year and it’s fun to see how the kids have grown

That's always a fun photo spot. Hope they don't get rid of Goofy and his balancing ice cream cones !

The stores years ago used to be located beyond security in the center atrium with the food courts. Those stores were small but I remember visiting them when I was a kid.

Bummer its like a little piece of the magic remaining as you depart.....I usually picked up the antenna bobbers I like there....bummed my new vehicle will not have a place for one!
As for security, its always so anticlimactic.....I was told it was so bad because they failed their security inspection, and that year was the worst, we were corralled like cattle and the little "motivator" dude was literally shouting " ya ya ya" and waving arms like we WERE cows....took like an hour and a half too.....and no theming whatsoever

After looking at the map https://www.urwairports.com/mco/map/ it's possible that maybe the CNN store could be removed and put it next to Universal perhaps?
