Getting Around
The Orlando International Airport is conveniently located close to the Kissimmee area. The Kissimmee Municipal Airport is a convenient alternative for private pilots and charters. An expansive road network links Kissimmee with the rest of Central Florida. An Amtrak station located in downtown Kissimmee offers another travel option. Kissimmee is about an hour's drive to the Atlantic beaches, 80 miles to Tampa Bay and the Gulf beaches, and 236 miles to Miami.
Osceola County has historically served as a transportation crossroads and is currently crossed by the Florida East Coast Seaboard and Amtrak Railroad Systems, Interstate Highway 4 and U.S. Highways 17/92, 441, 192 and Florida's Turnpike. The transportation network includes connections to the Central Florida Greeneway (SR417) and Osceola Parkway (SR522), which provide access from the Turnpike to Walt Disney World.
