Space Shuttle

[fxmulder]

We will be flying from BWI to MCO on December 6th. Our flight is scheduled to land in Orlando at 4:00pm, I just saw that the Space Shuttle is scheduled to launch at 4:30pm that day. Do you think this will cause any issues with the flights on that day? Hopefully we will be on-time and land before then, however if we are delayed leaving we might have a problem. Do you think flights might be rerouted or anything around the Shuttle launch? Thanks

Probably a few minutes before and a few minutes after flight will be delayed or moved away from the area.

I know a few years ago friends were on a flight that go to see the shuttle launch from their plane window. Pilot announced which window to look out.
