The Orlando International Airport to Orange County Convention Center maglev train is a proposed US$400 million magnetic levitation train system that will connect the Orlando International Airport and the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Florida, with a stop at the Florida Mall. The privately funded 13.8-mile (22.2 km) train line will be built by American Maglev Technology and is expected to be operational by 2017. When completed, the train will be the first commercial maglev system in North America.
On December 9, 2015, the Orlando International Airport board voted unanimously to begin negotiations for right-of-way for a new light-rail system to connect to I-Drive and the convention center, rather than a maglev.
