DCL bus back to MCO. How early can we get there?

[DavidOH]

How early can I expect to be at the airport if I take the DCL bus. I have the option of a 12:30pm flight on the day i disembark. Is this pushing it a little too much or should i try for a later flight.

WE had an 11:39 flight on Delta and made it in plenty of time just be ready to disembark by 8:30, I was told the Delta lines were the longest but we got lucky and no one was in that line

On our past 2 cruises we flew out at 11:00 and 11:30 respectively and had no trouble making either flight.

12:30 should be fine. Our flight is usually at 12:45 and we've never had to sweat getting there on time. In fact, the latest we've ever been to the airport and through security was about 10:30am, and that was shortly after 9/11/01, when all the extra "security" was piled on, and you couldn't check your bags with the airlines at the port terminal, or even at the curb. We've always taken the DCL busses and are usually off the ship soon after they clear it. You can actually take your time a bit and still be there in plenty of time.

When we got off the ship last Saturday we were at MCO by 9:30 and that was without rushing off the ship. You should be just fine with that flight time. Even with us going on Carnival and they don't disembark even a fraction as well as Disney and they call colors to get off the ship we were still at the airport by 11:00 at the latest.
