Travel plans for commuters heading to the Orlando International Airport were disrupted on Saturday due to a vehicle crash that prompted road closures and traffic snarls. The incident occurred at the Terminal A/B split at MCO, as reported by WESH , leading to delays and blocked roads for those attempting to access the terminals. The Orlando Police Department swiftly responded to the scene, and lanes leading to Terminal B were eventually reopened after the crash.

According to ClickOrlando , the crash was significant enough to temporarily shut down traffic at the road entrance to Terminal B. The portal's social media updated the public that the Orlando Police Department had responded to the crash, which took place along Jeff Fuqua Boulevard, by 3 p.m. and also emphasized the need for travelers to allow extra time to navigate the congested area.

The reopening of lanes was a relief to many, yet travelers were still advised to expect traffic delays. WESH indicated that even at around 5 PM, heavy traffic persisted around the airport area. The advisory to passengers from Orlando authorities and airport officials was clear: anyone heading to the Orlando airport should plan, allowing additional time for their commute amid the ongoing traffic issues.

Fortunately, neither source mentioned any reports of injuries associated with the crash. The police cleared the scene and facilitated the resumption of normal airport operations, yet the day's flow had already been irrevocably altered. The implication that people should expect traffic delays continued to be broadcast, ensuring those with imminent travel plans were to remain vigilant and prepared for the slower-than-usual journey.
