Orlando International Airport (OIA) is the 16th busiest hub in the country and the 24th busiest in the world. OIA serves over 100 U.S. destinations and 33 international cities. OIA is underway with a $1.2 billion expansion program. OIA is located just 20 minutes from downtown Orlando, on 15,000 acres. There are six other airports in Central Florida.

Rail service, passenger and freight is accessible to parts of Metro Orlando. Amtrak serves the region with AutoTrains that run daily from Sanford in Seminole County to just outside of Washington D.C. MetroPlan Orlando, a regional ground transportation alliance, is developing a light rail system to serve Orange, Osceola and Seminole counties.

Bus Service, through LYNX, an award winning bus system operating in Orange, Seminole and Osceola counties is available. There is also a free bus transit system, Lymmo, operating in downtown Orlando. Lymmo provides this service in partnership with the City of Orlando.

Port facilities, deep-and-shallow water ports are also available. Port Canaveral, 50 miles east of Orlando, is a deep-water port servicing both freight and cruise line shipping. The Port of Sanford, 20 miles north of Orlando, is a barge port designed primarily for fuels and steel. The Port of Tampa, on the Gulf of Mexico, ranks ninth in the nation in overall tonnage.

Central Florida is at the crossroads of Florida's highway network, which makes it easy to go anywhere in Florida or the rest of the country.

Two major limited-access highway systems bisect the area. Interstate 4 runs east and west across Florida from Daytona Beach and Interstate 95 on the Atlantic coast to Tampa on the Gulf of Mexico. Florida's turnpike runs south to Miami and north to join Interstate 75 which extends through Georgia and the Midwest.

Other highways serving the area include U.S. 441, U.S. 17, U.S.27, and U.S. 92, the newly developed Greenway, and a number of state roadways.

The Bee-line Expressway provides direct limited access to the Space Center, Port Canaveral and the east coast beaches. The East-West Expressway handles much of the traffic through the City of Orlando. The Expressway is connected by interchange to Interstate-4 (I-4).

Because of the growth of the Expressway Authority and increased revenue, another major highway project The Western Expressway will run from northwest Osceola County to northwest Orange County and will provide better access to central parts of Lake County.
