Brightline is the intercity train that runs between Orlando and Miami. According to the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority, Brightline operates between Orlando International Airport and Miami with stations in West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and Aventura. The Orlando stop is in the airport's Train Station, adjacent to Terminal C (as of October 11, 2026).

What Stations Does Brightline Stop At in Florida?

Brightline serves six stations. From north to south they are Orlando International Airport, West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale, Aventura and Miami, as listed on the Orlando International Airport train service page. Orlando is the only station north of West Palm Beach, so riders from Central Florida board at the airport.

Where Is the Brightline Station at Orlando Airport?

The Brightline platform is inside the Orlando International Airport Train Station, which sits next to Terminal C. The same station building holds the Terminal Link station that carries passengers to Terminals A and B. The airport says the closest parking is the Discovery Parking Lot, immediately outside the Train Station. If you are flying into Terminal A or B and connecting to the train, ride the Terminal Link to the Train Station rather than walking outside.

Does Brightline Go From Orlando to Miami?

Yes. Orlando International Airport and Miami are the two ends of the Brightline line, with West Palm Beach, Boca Raton, Fort Lauderdale and Aventura in between. Travelers going from Orlando to West Palm Beach, Boca Raton or Fort Lauderdale ride the same line and get off at those stations. Departure times, trip lengths and fares change, so we do not repeat them here; the Brightline website and app show the current schedule and prices.

Does Brightline Connect With SunRail?

Not at the same station. The airport describes SunRail as a 61 mile commuter system with 17 stations through Volusia, Seminole, Orange and Osceola counties, and says its connection to MCO is a bus link from the Sand Lake Station. A rider moving between Brightline and SunRail should allow time for that bus transfer. See our SunRail commuter guide and LYNX bus guide for the local side of the trip.

When Is a Charter Bus Better Than Brightline?

Brightline is station to station. In Orlando the train stops only at the airport, so a group heading to a Disney or Universal hotel, Port Canaveral or a venue still needs a second ride after arriving. Groups of 10 or more with luggage often book a charter for the whole trip, or for the leg between a Brightline station and the final destination, so everyone and their bags stay on one vehicle.
