Anyone used expressed departure recently from a ship out of Miami? We are on the Dream starting 10/1 and I would like feedback on the quickest we could get off the ship with express departure for a flight out of MIA on Thursday 10/6. Thank you.
 
In February we were out of the terminal around 8:30 and at MIA before 9. Our uber driver was seriously speeding though. We checked our bags, went through security and were at our gate about 45 minutes before boarding time.
 
We were concierge, but we did not use express. Folks were waiting in the louge though. Ship cleared around 7:35am and announcement was made.
 

We just disembarked the Dream in Miami last Friday, the 16th. Our flight was at 10am. We skipped the sit down breakfast and ate at Cabanas at 7. Our children are grown so it's pretty quick for us. Express Walk off was delayed until around 7:50. We still got to the airport by around 8:30am (Uber) and got our bags checked and at the gate by 9am. We have TSA Precheck so that helps speed our time getting through security.
We did the same thing last December and I'd do it again. The next non-stop flights for us were 2pm I just can't see sitting around the airport for several more hours unless it was a massive $ savings. I think 10am, give or take 5 minutes, is the earliest flight I'd choose from Miami.
 
Just disembarked yesterday. Doors opened around 7:45am - we were in line for about 10-15 min prior to that. No line at customs - we were out by 8:15am at the latest.
 
That is great to hear. For people who posted was disembarking scheduled for 7:30 or 8:00. I'm on the Dream getting back on Saturday, 12/24. Scheduled debarkation time is 8:00 and we have a flight out of FLL at 10:55. It's just my 15 year old daughter and I and we plan to debark the ship as soon as possible and have an Uber Black waiting for us. Goal would be to get up to FLL no later than 9:15. We do have TSA precheck so hopefully that will help. The flight time was a little earlier than I liked but it was the only way to get us home to Ohio well before late evening.
