About the Atlanta to Orlando route
Atlanta to Orlando is a short hop with frequent Delta nonstops, popular with families heading to the theme parks. At around an hour and a half in the air, the time at the airport is often longer than the flight itself, so the fare rules matter more than the flight time.

Before you book
- Families should check seating rules before booking. On the cheapest fares, seats are assigned at check-in and travelling companions aren't guaranteed to sit together.
- School holidays push prices up on this route. Flying out midweek, or a day before a holiday weekend, can make a noticeable difference.
- Orlando International (MCO) is the main airport. Orlando Sanford (SFB) is further north and mostly served by low-cost airlines, so it only helps if your plans fit those carriers.
