Can we make this ADR?

[KTR]

I have never flown and taken the Magical Express before. Our flight is due to arrive at MCO at 3:35. I don't really know how long to expect it will take for us to arrive at our resort (All Star Sports). We have an ADR at 1900 Park Fare at 7:30. Is this something we can reasonably expect to make? Should I cancel or try to get a later time?

If your flight is on time, you will be at ASSp between 5:15-6:00.

The tricky thing is between resorts; if you are willing to Uber you will make it. Resort transport may be more of an issue, as you would need to bus to a park (probably Mk) then take transport from the park (from MK, the resort monorail all the way around, or a boat; from HS or AK a shared bus that will stop at Poly first; don't go via Epcot).

On travel day I never make an ADR closer than 5 hours after scheduled arrival. Travel days are full of unexpected, uncontrollable delays. It is not uncommon to be delayed by hours. You would then be subject to the $10/person no show fee.
Not worth the stress to me.

I never book anything with a no show fee

things happen

a friend just posted yesterday that their 3:35 departure hadn't left, this was at 9:30 at night! You can't control your travel snafus, hence my personal policy

if nothing goes wrong and all the stars planets moons align you might make it. but is that how you want to start your trip?

I think that's cutting it close. I would either make the ADR closer to 9 or not book any ADR at all that day.

As long as you plan for uber and travel is reasonably on time you will be fine. If worrying about a cancel fee or rushing is a concern or will add stress consider booking something at Disney Springs that takes reservations via Open Table..i.e. no cancel fee. There are several that do like Raglan Road.
