Like it or not, pumpkin spice season is here in full force. Summer suddenly feels like a memory, and a question begins to take shape: What are your holiday plans?

Snow-covered castles, festive holiday markets, and mountain adventures aren’t as far off from Central Florida as you might think.

Orlando International Airport (MCO) offers nonstop flights to the most picturesque destinations, making planning a winter getaway easier than the bunny slope:

Germany

For a vacation akin to stepping into a snowglobe, Discover Airlines offers nonstop service to both Munich and Frankfurt.

Stroll through twinkling market squares filled with holiday music, sip warm Glühwein, and shop local craftsmanship before heading to countryside castles and mountain views.

Neuschwanstein Castle is less than two hours from Munich, and Heidelberg Castle, one of Germany’s most picturesque destinations, lies just one hour from Frankfurt.

Canada

There are two Canadian destinations just one flight away from MCO, too.

Fly WestJet to Calgary, Alberta, to explore the vibrant city before heading to Banff National Park for fresh mountain air, snow-capped peaks, and unforgettable scenery.

Or, head to Halifax, Nova Scotia on Air Canada or Porter Airlines to discover the northern Atlantic coast. Think: colorful waterfronts, fresh seafood, whale watching.

Amsterdam

Delta Air Lines' nonstop service to Amsterdam has something for every traveler, from art and history to outdoor exploration.

Discover the city's famous canals, visit world-renowned museums such as the Van Gogh Museum and Rijksmuseum, or venture beyond the city for iconic windmills and charming fishing villages.

Lisbon

If you’d rather stay far, far away from the cold, we've got you. TAP Air Portugal’s nonstop service to sunny, coastal Lisbon begins this October at MCO.
