Orlando Airport Weapon?

If you are flying to the Orlando International Airport (OIA) anytime soon, you really need to be aware of the weapon the facility is using to enhance your travel experience.

This weapon of choice used to market the city and to enhance the travel and flight experience of every person visiting Orlando is very simple and it’s called customer service. This marketing weapon used by the City of Orlando and the Orlando International airport are indeed rare these days in the age of mass travel.

Central Florida is quietly luring leisure and convention visitors to the area with the help of the improved Orlando International Airport ranking the facility received against other cities of similar size. In a recent survey published by a leading travel industry magazine, Orlando ranked among the nation’s top domestic airports.

Although prospective travelers don’t primarily select a destination based on the airport itself, the quality of the travel experience in totality certainly can impact the desire to go back to a specific place. Take New York City for instance. The NY LaGuardia, JFK and Newark NJ Liberty airports occupy 3 of 6 spots for the worst airports in the United States. For leisure travelers that have choices, this certainly does not enhance New York’s attractiveness as a leisure vacation destination. The Big Apple bites when it comes to airport quality according to travel consumers.
