Has anyone tried Gainesville? Orlando and Tampa are pretty congested and I prefer the little regional type airports.
Have not tried Gainesville. A few years ago I took a glance at Gainesville but couldn’t get to Illinois from there without transferring too much. However, Sanford has been useful using Allegiant Airlines. We still like to drive by taking our time 6 - 8 hours a day and a nice place for overnight and dinner. Sometimes do a little site seeing along the way too.
