The "new" train service connecting Orlando and Miami is operated by Brightline, and as of early 2026, ticket prices vary significantly based on how far in advance you book and the level of service chosen. For the standard "Smart" class, one-way fares typically start around $79 to $89, though occasional promotional deals can drop prices as low as $15–$30 for off-peak departures. For the premium "Premium" class—which includes lounge access, priority boarding, and complimentary snacks and drinks—fares generally range from $149 to $230 per person. The journey takes approximately 3.5 hours, making it a competitive alternative to the 4-hour drive. Prices are dynamic, similar to airline ticketing, so they tend to rise during holidays, weekends, and peak morning or evening commute times. It is important to note that a small "MCO Departure Fee" (around $1.50) is often added to tickets leaving from the Orlando International Airport station. For families, Brightline frequently offers "Kids Ride Free" or "Group" discounts, which can make the train a more economical choice compared to multiple individual tickets.
