does anyone know if there is a lounge at orlando like we have in the u.k were you pay a fee then can have drinks , mags or newspapers ? cant seem to find in on the airport website and thought i ' d treat myself [msnwink]
There is The Delta Crown lounge which we go into. That is the only lounge at Orlando. I don't know if you can pay a fee and go in, but worth asking at their reception desk. We were in there are Monday before leaving Florida after a 6 week stay!!! Back in UK now until April. Never mind.

Why not sit and have a meal or snack at The Hyatt, while watching football on the large screens.
Very comfortable, and of course has free internet, so you can spend you last moments on the forum

You can pay a fee to go in but last tiem I checked it was about $60 per person (if I recall correctly) so not an option at the time as we only had 40 mins to kill [msnsad].

What's the food like in the Delta Lounge, I've tried looking for info on net but MCO doesn't come up on list. Found someone giving a report on flight and it appears that it can get pretty full.
Food was nuts!
No really. Last trip we used the delta lounge and we could only get drinks and crisps/nuts on the bar area. No other food was to be seen or ordered, I just assume it was like that all the time. It did offer free wifi for those carrying laptops to check emails and flight status. All in all I would not pay to enter the delta lounge at MCO. Only advantage apart from free drinks, was sitting in a comfortable chair.
Now we stay downstairs with a choice of food options to spend the last of your dollars on.
United also has a lounge at Orlando, which we used to use back in the days when we flew enough to get free membership. It seems to cost $50 for a one-time pass, not sure I'd want to pay that for what you get.
If you use lounges often, you could join Priority Pass and pay £15 each a time.
Delta Lounge never offers more than nuts, cheese and biscuits, and occasionally apples if you are lucky. We were unaware that there was a United Lounge for which we hold passes, where is it? as we much prefer United lounges. We were told the Delta Crown was the only one, so would love to know where United is located please.

The United Red Carpet Club is by gate 43.

Oh well not missing anything if we decided not to use it, will see nearer the time.
I read that the Delta Lounge is not good when compared to the Virgin Lounge at Gatwick, just over a week to go and then we can check it out for ourselves.:D
Thank you for the information Susan and Martin. It is on the other terminal which is why we probably have not seen it as since moving from Tampa to Orlando, we don't seem to use United Airlines although we did like them.
