Debarking the Wish

We got in the line for Express Walk off at 6:40 am and there were at least half a dozen groups ahead of us already in line.
 
I was on the ship last month and got off around 7:30, there was only a very few people getting off at the same time and there was no line. I kept my bags and brought them down with me and was able to walk right up to customs and be out in under 10 minutes.

How has the debarking process been on the Wish? Wondering if we can make a 11:18 flight (yes...I know its not recommended. Just looking for recent experiences). Would we have time to grab breakfast at Cabanas, walk off with our luggage and Uber to the airport? We have TSA precheck. What time would we need to be walking off the ship? Thanks.
Just got off the Wish this morning. We had breakfast scheduled at 6:55am. We ordered & ate, got off the ship right after, went through customs fairly quickly, then boarded the DCL bus transport to MCO around 8:05am. Got to MCO around 9am. Our original flight home was supposed to be at around 8pm, but since we made it out so quickly, we were able to even wait in a huge check-in line to get our flight changed. We got changed to an 11am flight home, and we made it through security (having TSA pre-check) and to our gate at about 10am.
 
As a FL native might I recommend for your flight out post cruise to go to the orlando airport site a spot with MCO RESERVE. Its free of charge. If you remember fast pass in the parks that exactly how it works and it expedites your wait time for TSA.
It is available everyday for flights scheduled to depart before 3pm.

You can reserve your spot the earliest is 7 days prior to departure. However you cannot do it same day.
Is this something you reserve even if you also have TSA?

Precheck will help a lot, but I've seen even the precheck lines at MCO be nearly an hour long. That's not normal, but I certainly have seen it. MCO is know for its terrible security so I wouldn't bank on a quick pass through once you get there.
