picking up family from orlando airport

[Canadave]

Any tips on picking up someone at the Orlando airport? Our daughter and boyfriend are arriving at the airport at ~11:00 pm (mid February) and as we are already in WDW, we thought it would be nice to pick them up. They are flying WestJet. We flew to MCO back in 2000, so I have been there. I just know what a pain it is picking someone up at the Toronto Airport, so I'm hoping it won't be as bad.

The drive there to pick them up will be easy since there will be less traffic on the roads at that time. Just make sure that their flight is on time and park at the terminal where they are to be picked up. Both terminals are in the same building, just at opposite ends of the building. I am sure that they would be delighted to see you pick them up. We always pick our children up when they come and visit us while at WDW

Yes, we are staying at the WDW resort, but I thought it would be nice for them to see a friendly face when they come off the plane...especially at that time of night.
Thanks for the heads-up about the two terminals...how do you find out which terminal they are arriving at?

West Jet flies into Terminal A.

We often pick up our children on the late evening flight into Orlando. There is a 45 minute grace period in the paid onsite parking lot at the airport. As long as the flight is on time, that 45 minutes gives you plenty of time to get in and out of the airport without a fee. They will arrive off of the tram right beside the security check point. Pick them up there and you are on your way.
