Hey All!
While we've done a few Disney cruises in southern climes, we're doing our first Disney cruise to Alaska in just a few short weeks! This was thrown together very last-minute after the planets aligned to allow all of our family to take some vacation together.
Because it was so last minute, our flight options were fairly limited. While we're flying into Vancouver the day before, we need to fly back home (we're in Ontario, Canada) on the same day the cruise ends.
So here's my dilema... Our (domestic) flight home leaves Vancouver at 11am, which is about an hour earlier than Disney recommends. A few questions for those who've maybe had a similar situation:
1. Do I have a reasonable chance to make this flight? I've done some searching on the forum, and it seems like it should not be a huge problem. I believe the right idea will be to visit the Wonder's Guest Services asap and request the early debarkation group (Express Checkout?) so that we can leave the ship asap with our luggage in tow.
2. Will we be okay to just hail a taxi to take us to the airport, or should I look at reserving some kind of private car service? We're a family of 4 with (not excessive) luggage.
Many thanks for any and all advice and insights.
