early flights home

[pounce]

I have a 10:10 return flight,and I have reserved a limo for 8:00. What are my chances of making it.

you will probably make it as they are closing the door hatch!!!!
you can expect a 40-50 minutes ride from the pier to the airport and usally you can not get off the boat before 8:00am and it take some time to collect your bags and go through customs

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




IMO stay away from HAPPY LIMO

As long as everything goes perfectly, you'll make it.

I think it's a little early. If it takes longer than normal to clear the ship you could miss the plane.

If you are flying on a major carrier, you can check your luggage at the port and not see it again until you get to your final destination. Just a word, the security rules have changed again and folks are now required to get out all camcorders (in addition to the laptops). Your top layer of clothes must be removed (down to your first layer). These new rules caused a little lag but not much in Orlando as there aren't many layers being worn.

I doubt the airline will accept the luggage at the port for such an early flight. If the airline won't check your luggage at the port, you'll have to take it with you to the airport.

Airlines also have cutoff times for checking your luggage at the airport. It varies by airline and airport. Typically, you have to check your luggage 30 to 60 minutes before the departure time, or the airline won't accept your luggage. Check with your airline. And remember, if they say 60 minutes, that's when you have to be at the front of the line being served, not just when you need to arrive at the airport.

Hi there!

I hope you enjoy your cruise!

My opinion - your flight is too early. Not only are you going to be rushed to be the first off the ship - worried that you have no traffic, worried about the security and no doubt something will go wrong - Murphy's law

We travelled in February and had a flight at 1:00 p.m. - we were unlucky if you will and had to succumb to an entire luggage check - even my one and a half year old had to take her shoes off etc-even though we had plenty of time- we didn't actually get physically off the ship until 8:45 a.m.- and stood in line for awhile. We checked our luggage at the port with one of the airline that was at the port and after lining up there as well and having our tickets issued we were finished around 9:40 a.m. The ride was about one hour to the airport. We got to the airport around 10:45 or so and then had to line up yet again for the security check. I am glad they do the check but it did take a very long time - almost an hour. By the time we got to the gate, we had time to use the restroom and we were boarding the plane.

I would not want to end such a lovely vacation in such a rushed manner.
Perhaps you may want to reconsider!

Enjoy the cruise.

DCL suggests your flight not be before 12:30pm.
