Two steps from Baggage Belt 7, you hit Sandhill Express
This small stand sits right by Baggage Belt 7 in Terminal A, so you can grab something while waiting for bags instead of hunting through the concourse. It’s post-security on arrival, so you’re already through the checks by the time you reach it. Think quick grab-and-go snacks, drinks, and last‑minute gifts more than a full convenience store.
Sandhill Express opens about 2 hours before the first boarding flight of the day, which often means early morning for SFB’s charter and leisure departures. That timing works best on departure days when you’re at the airport before sunrise and want a drink or packaged snack before heading to the gates. On late arrivals, expect it to be shut if flights are done for the night.
Stock runs basic: bottled water and sodas, energy drinks, chips, candy bars, and a few grab‑and‑go items, all at typical airport markup (figure around $3–$5 for drinks and $2–$6 for snacks). You’ll also find travel accessories like phone cables, earbuds, and neck pillows, plus small Orlando-themed gifts and magnets that work as last‑second souvenirs if you skipped the parks’ shops.
If your bag is coming out on Belt 7 anyway, Sandhill Express is worth the 30‑second detour. If not, don’t trek across Terminal A just for it; head toward your own belt and see what’s closer. Tip: top off on drinks here before you get in a rideshare queue outside, since there’s nothing once you step to the curb.
