Ship Departure Time - The DIS Discussion Forums

itutorfortravel · 10-21-2012, 08:39 AM

We're not new to DCL so you'd think I'd know this, but we're usually one of the first ones at the terminal gate so I've never had to think about it!!!

Anyhow, just wondering what time the ship actually stops boarding for departing Port Canaveral?

What's the latest flight (arrival time in MCO) that you have had and comfortably made it to the ship?

I'm interested in knowing this for both DCL scheduled air and air you've done on your own.

Thanks!

I think you have to board by 4pm.

I think my documents say 3:30 or 3;45 is the last boarding time. Definitely in the check in documents. It also gives the last time into MCO as I think, 1:30. That may be for DCL transportation, but I wouldn't want to push it any more than that as it is going to take some time to gather baggage and get to the port, even if you are using private car service.
