2016 AAO CONVENTION
Volume 50 : Number 2 : Page 0 : Feb 2016
Returning to Orlando for the first time since 2004, this year's AAO conference promises a number of novel experiences besides new rides in the city's ubiquitous theme parks. Here is our annual guide to attractions, events, and restaurants in the host city during the convention, taking place April 29-May 3. Although Florida is generally warm in late April, with highs in the 80s and lows in the 60s, it can also be quite wet. Plan for afternoon thundershowers. At Orlando International Airport, ground transportation can be found on Level 1 of either terminal, A or B. Taxi fares run around $40 one way to the Orange County Convention Center area (International Drive), with shared shuttles available for about half that price.
