Ground Transportation:

We recommend renting a car during your stay. While Uber and Lyft are present in Port Orange, wait times are often longer than they are in larger cities.

Airports:

There are 3 airport options for travel to Port Orange.

  • DAB – Daytona Beach International Airport (10 miles) – Most flights are serviced by American or Delta and connect through Charlotte or Atlanta.

  • SFB – Orlando Sanford International Airport (30 miles) – If you fly on Allegiant or Sun Country, this is a great option.

  • MCO – Orlando International Airport (60 miles) – all major airlines fly to this airport as well as many other airlines.

Accommodations:

Port Orange is a popular destination in February. We recommend booking early!

All events will be held within the Spruce Creek Fly-In community. If you are lucky, you might find a place on VRBO or Airbnb inside the fly-in. Lucky is the key word. There are many hotels in the city of Port Orange and surrounding areas including Daytona Beach (15 miles). Country Inn and La Quinta are the closest hotels to the Spruce Creek Fly-In.
