Several major airlines provide direct and connecting services from the UK to Orlando, primarily targeting the massive tourism demand for Disney and Universal. British Airways and Virgin Atlantic are the leading carriers for direct flights, operating daily routes from London Heathrow (LHR) and London Gatwick (LGW). For travelers in the north of England, Virgin Atlantic and Aer Lingus often offer direct flights from Manchester (MAN). TUI Airways also operates seasonal charter flights from several regional UK airports, including Birmingham and Glasgow, often as part of holiday packages. If you are looking for more budget-friendly options or don't mind a layover, American carriers like United, American Airlines, and Delta offer connecting flights through hubs like New York, Atlanta, or Philadelphia. Additionally, Norse Atlantic Airways has recently entered the market, offering lower-cost direct flights from London Gatwick. Depending on the airline, you may land at Orlando International (MCO) or the smaller Melbourne Orlando International (MLB).
