TCX are moving their Florida flights from Sanford to Orlando Intl for Summer 2014.

Smart move in my opinion.
I agree on that one. MCO is closer to Disney and the main Orlando attractions than SFB, though I accept that hasn't really stopped people using SFB in the past (and it also depends where passengers' final destinations are once landed). I was struggling to find an announcement on this but I had a quick look on the flythomascook.com website and flights to MCO are available to book now for March/April 2014.

Does anyone know whether there's an underlying reason for this move? I understand one reason why the UK charter carriers moved to SFB in the 1990s is the lower landing fees there, so I'm curious to know whether TCX are on their own with this one or whether we'll see Thomson or Monarch eventually move as well.
