What time do busses leave WDW to head for port?

[mouseclick1]

We we will driving ourselves from the AKL to the port. I want to time it so we don't get to the port at the same time as the busses to avoid the crowds. I really don't care if we are the first ones there, and we won't be doing the ressie scramble. We cruised last year, and due to our flight being 2 hours late, we didn't arrive at the ship until 2:30, which is a little later than I would really care to get there. Any suggestions on a good time to leave AKL? Thanks!

When we cruised last year, the busses started picking up at 11:30am, it about an hour to hour fifteen minute bus ride.

have a great time.

Thanks for the reply! In that case, I think we'll try to leave at 11:00.

You will still run into the airport buses, which start running around 10-10:30 (trip is a little shorter from there...45 mins. to an hour). But don't worry, it's not typically too crowded.

Would buses leave at 11:30 for the Magic too? And would this be too late, or would be still get there at a reasonable time? We will be at the AKL the night before the cruise.

Does anyone know if there are seats belts on the DCL motorcoachs? DD car seat works better with one!

If you want to beat the buses from the airport, plan on leaving WDW by 9:30.
