Orlando International Airport (MCO) announced on Twitter that commercial service will stop at 8 p.m. tonight. It is expected to resume on Saturday after the airport is able to assess damage and clean up. The reopening is also subject to the availability of the staff.

This is going to be a headache for a lot of people traveling this weekend, but hopefully those that are supposed to fly out tonight or tomorrow will be able to find lodging until normal service returns.
Again, Main Street Wishes is keeping everyone in the path of Hurricane Matthew in our thoughts. We hope everyone stays safe!
We will keep you updated as more hurricane related information is released.

I love all things Disney, but my main love is for Disney World and I'm always planning for the next trip. Before becoming a Disney blogger, I was a radio DJ, so I guess I'm just continuing in the communication industry, just in a different form. I love talking Disney and I could talk about Disney all day. That's why I started blogging and created the Facebook group. The Disney community is full of friendly, helpful, and happy people...and I love being a part of it! If there is any Disney subject you would like to see covered just let me know! Need help planning your Disney vacation. Feel free to contact myself or Melissa at Never Stop Dreaming Travel Co. We love helping people plan their trips! Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy!
