ORLANDO, Fla. (FNN) – In honor of Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips at ICON Park opening August 9, the entertainment complex is celebrating the United Kingdom this week.
From August 9 to 15, there will be an invasion of Great Britain’s most popular songs by artists such as the Beatles, Ed Sheeran, The
Rolling Stones, Adele and more. Guests can listen to their songs as they experience ICON Park’s signature attraction, The Wheel.
Guests also have the option to be their own DJ by connecting their phone to the private capsules’ Bose speakers using The Wheel’s new state of the art Bluetooth system.
In addition to the specially curated playlist, the 400-foot observation wheel will be lit up in red, white and blue to represent the Union Jack, paying homage to Great Britain.
“I like Gordon Ramsay and his team because they work hard, care a lot about quality and have fun,” said Chris Jaskiewicz, ICON Park president and CEO. “They are a great fit at ICON Park.”
Gordon Ramsay Fish & Chips is the first restaurant created by world-class chef and television star Gordon Ramsay on the East Coast. This fast-casual concept serving the perfect English meal transports guests to a seaside fish and chips shop on the British coast. Along with fried favorites, the restaurant serves the best British deserts such as Gordon’s signature Sticky Toffee Pudding and Biscoff shakes.
ICON Park is at the center of the International Drive Resort Area and Orlando Entertainment District.

ORLANDO, FL. – With a strong start to the holiday travel season in November, Orlando International Airport (MCO) came dramatically close to breaking the 50 million passenger barrier, again. Previously, MCO shattered the mark before the pandemic and it was not predicted to fully rebound again until at least 2025.
“We have far exceeded anyone’s expectations for traffic growth at Orlando International Airport,” says Kevin Thibault, Chief Executive Officer of the Greater Orlando Aviation Authority. “On a rolling 12-month basis, MCO welcomed 49.7 million passengers as of November. If you break that down even further, it is about two days-worth of traffic shy of 50 million.”
For the month of November, MCO was bolstered once again by robust international traffic, which climbed over 85 percent. Those numbers were also affected by the resumption of service by Sunwing to Toronto. Another key factor, MCO recorded the third-lowest domestic air fares in the country from July through September for the top 50 U.S. airports.
Rolling 12-month Traffic Statistics:
- International traffic is up by triple digits with a 225 percent increase over the same 12-month period in 2021 with 5,352,825 total international passengers.
- Domestic traffic climbed 21.04 percent year-over-year to 44,350,955 passengers at MCO.
- Combined, overall traffic at MCO for the 12-month rolling total was up 29.82 percent to 49,703,780 passengers.
November 2022 Traffic Statistics:
- International traffic climbed 85.35 percent with a total of 466,169 international arrivals and departures.
- Domestic passenger traffic was up 3.83 percent on 3,772,635 total travelers for the month.
- Combined, traffic was up 9.11 percent with a grand total of 4,238,804 arrivals and departures at MCO.
