With the threat of severe weather approaching, we wanted to take a moment to encourage all of our airport employees to prepare both at work and at home. We have put together a few links with valuable information from federal and local agencies.
For airport specific information, please contact your manager. MCO’s Emergency Management team will be briefing our airport partners throughout the event.
