  "connection_tips": "Melbourne Orlando International Airport (MLB) is a premier and highly efficient aviation hub situated on Florida's Space Coast, providing a quiet and stress-free alternative to the much larger Orlando International Airport (MCO). Standard taxi services are also readily available 24/7 at the commercial curb. For those wishing to explore the spectacular natural wonders of the region, such as the Kennedy Space Center or the world-famous Atlantic beaches independently, renting a car is highly recommended. Arriving 90 minutes before your domestic departure is typically ample time.\n\nGetting to and from the modern terminal is well-organized, making it a model for regional connectivity in Brevard County. For those staying locally, many area hotels\u2014including the Hilton Melbourne and the Courtyard by Marriott\u2014offer complimentary shuttle pickups for their guests; it is highly recommended to coordinate this at least 24 hours in advance. All major international agencies like Avis, Hertz, and Enterprise maintain desks conveniently located within the terminal arrivals area. If you are connecting from Melbourne to an international flight via a major hub like Atlanta (ATL) or Charlotte (CLT), ensure you allow at least 3 hours for the transfer to account for regional flight timing and check-in procedures at the larger airports.\n\nFor most travelers, ride-hailing services like Uber and Lyft provide the most flexible and reliably priced connection, with a designated pickup zone situated just outside the baggage claim area. For a more economical alternative, Space Coast Area Transit (SCAT) provides public bus links (specifically Lines 21 and 30) between the airport and major city hubs, including the Melbourne Square Mall. The terminal complex is modern and features high-quality facilities, including several cafes serving local Florida-style snacks and free high-speed Wi-Fi throughout the building. Always check for the latest traffic updates along the I-95 corridor, as seasonal tourism can occasionally impact drive times to the terminal.",
