I saw a video of Terminal C at MCO this week and it was absolutely empty. 4 people in the entire place. Where are all the people going to be going to in Orlando that would require an additional terminal (that is bigger then most total city terminals) to be needed. Yes, it is still crowded in the rest of them, but that one looks like something that really wasn't needed.
Are you aware that C is mainly for international passengers. MCO would not have built a multi million dollar addition to sit empty.
The video I saw, they had parked in the parking garage (C) and went through the terminal to get the train to the regular terminal. That didn't stop the place from being open and empty. So they either haven't started to direct those international flights in and out of C or it was built on speculation. I don't really know, I'm just telling you what the video was filming.
What do I know. What I saw on the video was a huge terminal that was currently open and was empty. They must be expecting a huge migration either into Orlando or out of it. Whatever, the case, it hasn't happened yet. What's with the defensiveness about a freaking airport terminal, do you guys own it? Many large amounts of money have been invested from time to time only to not be needed. That probably isn't the case here, but unless it is a terminal for international invisible people it hasn't happened to any successful degree yet.
Nothing like working till the last minute or beyond. Years ago when Star Tours reopened at DHS, we rode and workers were still installing parts of the nearby walls in the hallway.
yeah buying fox cost a ton of money but eventually it will pay off imo
You're mixing a lot of different ideas here. Things like creative direction, park operations, maintenance, etc. are not the same thing and are often in tension with one another. For example, you could argue that Magic Kingdom needs a nighttime parade creatively speaking. But I would argue that a nighttime parade in Magic Kingdom is a disaster from a park ops perspective.
No, what I got was sarcasm. "They wouldn't build if if they didn't have a need". Any other response might have worked. Statements like "well, you realize that it takes time to move the international flight operations from where they currently are to the new terminal" or "add more people to man the areas that sometimes doubled as domestic or international". Since I have been doing this stuff since 2003 I probably know how discussion boards work. I had no intention of discussing it any further then just stating that the video showed an almost completely empty terminal. Why I didn't know, nor did I know how long it had been open. So lets just move on before I actually start to lose sleep about it.No one is being defensive. You made a comment and we responded to it. This is how this whole website operates: people say something and other people respond. And are you making an assumption on how busy it is based on one video you saw?? I mean it literarily just opened about a month ago. Makes sense to me!
I live 600 miles from Orlando, I'm fairly sure that I haven't kept up with the building situations at MCO. At the time empty was empty, the reasons for that I had no reason to know, but it looked dead from the perspective of the video.
Your opinion is " something that was not really needed " in regards to Terminal C is your opinion. I strongly disagree with that. MCO knows that Terminal will be successful along with A and B.No, what I got was sarcasm. "They wouldn't build if if they didn't have a need". Any other response might have worked. Statements like "well, you realize that it takes time to move the international flight operations from where they currently are to the new terminal" or "add more people to man the areas that sometimes doubled as domestic or international".

Can they? It’s fewer and fewer, less and less, for more and more($$$).
Disney can only please the people who are willing to pay them. All others please go away.
