Coming home flight too early?

[DreaminDisney]

I was just informed that the flight coming home has been changed. I have 2 options...........

10:50 AM or 6:25 PM.

We have 2 small kids and the thought of 6:25 PM is not good. We don't have a car, we already booked tiffany.

Is 10:50 cutting it too close?

Thanks~

I think you'll make it! But, if you decide to go for 6:25 pm-there is another thread where I read that you can book a day room at the MCO Hyatt-$60. You can use all the hotel's facilities-including room service. My return flight isn't until 8PM-the day room is the perfect answer.

Good Luck

You should be okay with the 10:50. We had a return flight time of 11:45 and had time to kill. If we wouldn't have ate lunch in the airport we could have switched to an earlier flight. Besides, you have a towncar so you won't have to hurry and wait for a bus.
I think we were off the ship by 8 or 8:30 and trust me, we were not in a hurry to get off the ship!
You didn't say when you were going. The only other thing I would take into consideration is the terror alert level. I don't know how much that has changed wait times to get through security.
Overall I think you'll be okay. Good luck!

You will probably make it....but just be aware that sometimes the ship comes into Port Canaveral late. It has happened a few times but not on a regular basis. We were onboard once when we did not get into PC until after 10:00 and they we did not get off the ship until after 11:00. The other thing to consider is traffic or accident on the Beeline that could make you late as well.

Personally, I would opt for the later flight. We have done this several times and usually spend the day shopping at Downtown Disney or catching a movie there, or just chilling at the Hyatt.

We've been at the airport as early as 9:00...but other times, we weren't off the ship till 9:00....you'll probably be ok with the early flight.

What would happen if you booked the later one and got there in time for the early? Would they let you on the earlier one? That's what they did for us the day we got there at 9:00. There was a 9:30 flight, so I asked. They let us on, no penalties or anything.
