Can we make an 11:35 a.m. flight home?

Do you think we can make an 11:35 a.m. flight back or should we be safe and book the 2:05 p.m.?

I sure hope so, 'cause we're booked at 11:15 am!

Provided all goes well, you are fine. Our flight was 11:30. We got up early, had brkf and were off
the ship by 8- 8:30. Our transpo 'Yourride was waiting for us in the pkg lot, loaded our luggage and had us to the port by 9- 9:30 for our 11:30 flight. Have fun and don't stress.

Disney booked our flight at 11:20 am and we were there with hours to spare. Check your bags at the port if your airline is there so all you have to do is show up at the gate. We were on Disney transportation and made it easily. We had early seating and ate in the dining room.

Our flight was 12noon. We were off the ship at 7:50, checked our bags at USair at Port Canaveral, even took the DCL shuttle and got to the airport by 9:25am.

Funny to see these responses. When I booked DCL in June for January they told me absolutely NOT to book my flight before noon because of the current delays at the port and the airport for customs and security. My only other choice was a 6 p.m. flight. Needless to say, I'm NOT a happy camper as I'll be getting home at around midnight on Sunday night and working on Monday morning.

My wife and I were just on the Aug. 2-9 Western sailing on the Magic and we had an 11:15 AM flight. We had breakfast with the rest of our first seating counterparts and were off the ship by 8:45 AM. We used US Airways Port Canaveral Check-In service and were off to the Airport on a Disney Cruise Line bus by 9:10 and at the Airport 45 minutes later. It was a really smooth process with absolutely no hassles. Just make sure you are one of the first off the ship.
