Transfer planning guide

Sanford airport transfer planning: SFB, not MCO

Orlando Sanford International Airport uses the code SFB. Confirm that code on your ticket before asking for a transfer; an MCO route or pickup instruction is not a Sanford arrangement.

Choose the Sanford route specifically

Send the airline, flight number, travel date, exact destination address and all passengers and luggage. Catalog routes below are the relevant SFB options, but they do not promise service to every resort or private address.

Mears Connect’s official FAQ states that it does not serve Orlando Sanford International Airport and points to Mears Transportation’s separate private-car offering. Do not book an MCO shuttle assuming it will meet an SFB flight.

Use the airport’s departure guidance

SFB’s current passenger FAQ recommends arrival two hours before domestic flights and three and a half hours before international flights. Recheck the current airport and airline instructions for your flight and add the actual ground journey and other needed time.

These are airport planning recommendations, not a pickup time or guaranteed connection. We do not publish a fixed drive duration from SFB to every destination.

Confirm meeting and return arrangements

Your trip confirmation must specify where to meet, what vehicle and restraints can be provided, and the terms for waiting, delays or changes. Keep the confirmed provider’s contact details accessible. For a return to SFB, send the departure flight and hotel pickup address again so the direction is unambiguous.

Successful booking payment provides your reservation code and receipt. An unpaid quote or custom inquiry alone does not reserve a ride.

Frequently asked questions

Can I select an MCO service for a Sanford flight?

No. SFB is a separate airport. Choose a published Sanford route and enter your exact itinerary to book online; request a custom quote if it falls outside published coverage.

Does this request guarantee an SFB pickup?

A fare alone does not reserve a ride. Choose a published route, review your trip options and price, then pay securely online to receive your reservation code and receipt.
