The Greater Orlando Aviation Authority is seeking a developer for vertiport at Orlando International Airport.

'The intent of the invitation to negotiate is to receive information from potential vertiport developers and operators, and other similar entities who can assist the Aviation Authority in developing and operating a vertiport terminal at MCO including identifying the associated infrastructure needed to support eVTOL technology; integrate the development into and resolve conflicts with current airport operations and infrastructure,' the bid process said.
