Any Chance of making a 11:34 flight

[BarbOKW]

I just found out that my return flight time was changed from 1:54 to 11:34. And all the other return flights are full!

We also have an 11:30 return flight. We are using Fl tours to transport us from the pier to MCO. They are picking us up at 8:15 and from what I've gathered, barring any unforseen conditions, we should be fine. How are you getting to the airport? I would think that would be the determining factor. If you have to wait for the DCL transfer, you won't have as much control. I would arrange your own transfer just to be sure and then you'll be fine!! Have fun!!!

It is doable, but not recommeded. If your airline has changed you I guess you have no choice...just make sure you are off the ship ASAP...I would say by 8:15 the latest.

You should make it as long as there are no hold up on the Beeline or delays that keep the ship from returning to port ontime or from clearing customs.

We were onboard once where there was a medical emergency and we did not get back to Port Canaveral until 9:30 am....not let off the ship until 11:00 am. It is rare, but does happen.

We're also using Florida Tours. Now the airline is telling me that 4 of us are on the original flight that didn't get changed and the bumped 2 of us to the earlier flight. How does that happen?

 

[BarbOKW]

Problem sovled, the American decided that there was on the original flight for all six of us afterall. It pays to ask for a supervisor.

We fly on Sprit out of Chicago because they are a low fare airline. They only have 2 flights daily out of MCO, 10:50am or 5:50pm. We booked the last flight. On Friday we decided to be one of the first to be off the ship to try to fly stand-by. We were at MCO by 8:30 am with plenty of time to catch the earlier flight. For our Jan 05 cruise I already book our flights and we will fly out at 10:50 am. If for some reason we miss that flight, we will try to get stand-by for the late flight. A Spirit rep told me that since we are flying in Jan the flights are usually not sold out.

We have taken an 11:30 a.m. flight from MCO three times after getting off both Magic and Wonder and have never had a problem getting there. Many of the limo companies (we used Art's the last time), if asked, will make special arrangements for transportation to "early" flights, and whisk you off to the airport from PC ahead of their larger buses and vehicles.

We made a 10:20 flight with no problem. Daughter dropped us off at the airport and scooted on home!

We have an 11:35 flight. One thing to watch out for is getting your luggage immediately to the "port" airlines check-in counters. If you do not get them there by a certain time, they will make you take them on the bus with you to the airport. - Mike

if you do a private limo, and have an 11:10 am flight, should there be a problem making it. How hard is it to get off early and get your bags.
