Thank you

I used to fly in and out of Tampa every month, for 12 years.
Since I moved to TV, I've used Orlando 6 times for me & 4-5 times to pickup/drop off friends.
There is absolutely no comparison. Tampa is lightyears more efficient and easier than Orlando. Orlando is full of "tourists", mostly with children ... & no one has a clue where they're going, how to get there or why they have to go there.
Flying into Orlando, is the only airport I've flown into in 30 years, where people "clap" when the airplane lands. If that's not a indication of novice flyers, nothing is.
Yesterday, it took me 25 minutes to get from the Orlando "Cell Phone Lot", back to Terminal B. The signage is atrocious.
Orland is amateur hour, use Tampa.
