Welcome!
After a long hiatus, Friday Night Flight is back!
We’re excited to kick off the return of this community-favorite event series with our first destination: Orlando International Airport (KMCO). Welcome to Sunshine State Hub.
Located in the heart of Central Florida, Orlando International is one of the busiest airports in the United States and serves as the gateway to millions of visitors each year. Home to JetBlue’s Orlando hub and a major focus city for airlines such as Southwest, Delta, Frontier, Breeze, American, and United, KMCO offers one of the most diverse route networks in North America.
For this event, Orlando will take center stage as pilots recreate the airport’s busy mix of domestic and international operations. You’re encouraged to fly any real-world airline and route operating to or from KMCO, whether it’s a quick hop across Florida, a transcontinental flight, or an international service.
As the first event in the return of Friday Night Flight, we hope to bring the community together for an evening of realistic flying and set the stage for many more events to come.
Thank you for joining us—we’ll see you in the Sunshine State!

What is Friday Night Flight?
Friday Night Flight (FNF) is a weekly community event designed to bring pilots together for an evening of realistic flying on the Expert Server. Each event is announced a few days in advance, giving everyone time to plan their flights, reserve ATC positions, and prepare for a busy night in the skies.
Inspired by the original Friday Night Flight series, this revival aims to recapture the excitement and sense of community that made those events so memorable. Whether you’ve been flying since the early days of Infinite Flight or you’re joining your very first FNF, everyone is welcome.
Pick a realistic route, connect with fellow pilots and controllers, and help us create unforgettable Friday nights once again.
