Whether they’re going to some of the world’s best theme parks or exploring the City Beautiful, travelers flocked in record numbers to Orlando in 2015.
Visit Orlando, the city’s tourism arm, is announcing that 66 million people made the trip there last year — a jump of more than 3 million people, compared to 2014. The Orlando Sentinel reports that the numbers can be chalked up to the region’s expanding theme parks.
In 2015, a record 33 million hotel room nights were sold, and $230 million in tourist development taxes were collected.
