Airport food

[maxiesmom]

My next flight in to Orlando is scheduled to land at 9:45 pm. Looking on line many of the food places list they are open until "last flight". When would that be? Can I depend on getting food at MCO if I'm not too picky? I am staying at Pop so I'm not sure we will get there before the food court closes.

I've had flights that arrived in Orlando as late as 11 pm.

I think it's going to depend on what airline and how business has been at the store that day. It looks like the last flight out for SW is 2200, so if that is your airline I would expect everything to be closed. The legacies are all earlier than that. Only Spirit and Frontier have flights out as late as 2300 so something might be open, I wouldn't count on it though. How are you getting from MCO to POP? I'd plan on getting something on the way or eat big before getting on the plane.

I would not depend on having food available at the airport at that time. Recently, when we land, all places are closed. To be safe, I would buy a sandwich at the departing airport to have when you get to the hotel.

The last time I flew into Orlando I landed at 9:10pm. Everything was closed. We spent the night at the Hyatt. I asked at check in and they told me the restaurants close at 9 in the airport. The Hyatt had one restaurant open until 10.

McCoys at the Hyatt has a late night menu until midnight. Burgers sandwiches salads etc

Starbucks should be open with whatever sandwiches, if any are leftover from earlier in the day

The Starbucks locations in the airport close at 10.

Don't count on eating at MCO. Most of the restaurants have been closing very early since the pandemic, presumably because of labor shortages. We got severely delayed a couple of months ago and had to find food late in the evening; the only thing available was bar food from McCoy's in the Hyatt, which was quite expensive, and because it was the only thing open, had nearly an hour-long wait for an order to go.

My best suggestion would be to bring food on the plane (try not to take anything with a really strong odor.) Whenever we have a late flight out we order from our favorite deli and then stop to pick it up on the way to the airport; that way we can break up the flight with a meal on board, eaten at our normal dinnertime.

If you can't do that for whatever reason and prefer to eat late, I can recommend Flipper's Pizza for delivery. There is one near Four Corners (it's at the corner of 27 and Irlo Bronson; it's listed as the "Rolling Oaks" location). Phone number is 352-242-2214; there is an app for ordering online. (Flippers is a local chain in Florida; it's quite good and NOT a scam.) https://flipperspizzeria.com/rolling-oaks-w192/

The OP will probably arriving at POP too late for Flippers.
Send someone to McCoys to get a table and place an order, or place a to go order, while others grab luggage may be the way to go.

This isn't the OPs first trip. OP didn't ask about bringing food in the plane. That's what I'd do but the OP asked about alternatives
