Departure day dilemma!!

[CdnDisneyFan]

If this is in the wrong section, I apologize, but I have a question.

My friend and I have a return flight on Nov 22 at 6:25 pm, and we're using ME, so what would be the earliest possible lunch ressie we should look for so we're not pushing things? We have a 12:30pm at Raglan Road for that afternoon, (we're staying at POP and will be taking Disney transportation to/from Downtown Disney if that helps any), and that's the earliest PS there, should we cancel and find something earlier somewhere else or keep it and let the wait staff know our situation?

Thanks in advance for your advice,

Jules

Hmm are you techinically an international flight?

ME usually picks you up fairly early so with a 630pm departure. Im saying ME will probably pick you up between 3pm-330pm.

Lunch ADR @ 1230p, lunch for about an hour, 90 mins at most for 2 people. puts you @ 2pm and leaves you an hour or so to get back to pop.

International flights are picked up by ME 4 hours ahead of the flight departure time. So you would need to be back at your resort, ready at the bus stop, by 2:10 at the latest. The time listed is the time the bus is scheduled to leave your resort, not arrive at it. Busses do come early and they will leave early if it appears everyone there is loaded.

I don't think you have enough time.

No, we're flying to Detroit, I forget the term, talk about CRS, lol.

Thanks for the advice

You should be able to find a lunch ADR for around 11:30. The restaurants that do not serve breakfast definitely start lunch service that early.

I would definitely alert your server to your tight timeframe. Never hurts to have them on your side.

Have a great trip!

Jules I amost asked where you were flying back to. My return flight is the same day and time as yours. We are going back to Newark though.

I just looked at the dining reservations online. There is availability for 11:15 and 11:30 at Raglan. Change to an earlier time.

One suggestion is to take a cab back to hotel after lunch. This way you control your time and you don't worry about a bus to take you back. The cab rates are reasonable.

I edited to say that I did a search for an 11:00 am reservation, canceled my 12:30 one and changed it to 11:00, that way we'll have time to relax and not hurry back. Thanks for the heads up! Are you taking ME to the airport as well, or another way of getting there? If ME, maybe we'll see each other somehow on there, lol!! Weirder things have happened.
