Flight Home

[mustang5991]

What time do you guys usually book your flight home after the cruise??? (at mco) I'm going on the 7 day cruise this time and last time disney told me not to book a flight departing before 1:00pm which is what I did and I ended up waiting in the airport from 10am to 1pm. Just want to hear what everyone else is does?

Thanks

The fog delayed our docking on the last day. We were stuck waiting in the lobby of the ship for two hours. Everyone was scambling to make their connections. It was crazy. I think we'll just bring gameboys, books, whatever to occupy ourselves until our 3:20 flight home.

On our cruise this past Feb, our flight didn't leave until 5:00 pm. So we booked a "day room"($60) at the Hyatt in the airport.We ate luch at the airporrt and hung out at the pool,took showers,relaxed,watched TV,etc and walked down to our gate at 4:00 pm.

We arrived at the MCO around 9:00 am and got right into our room. For our cruise In Feb 2005 our flight leaves at 12:30 pm so I don't think we will need a day room.

We are cruising in October and our flights don't leave until 5 and 6pm. We also rented a couple of day rooms at the Hyatt (75.00). I learned about the day rooms on this board. (Thanks guys!)

What is a day room? I'm assuming it is the use of the room for the day?

Why not just use priceline and get a cheaper rate, just not spend the whole night?

I'm new at all of this, thanks for your help.

Here is the link for the "Day room" at the Hyatt.

The advantage is you are right at the airport, especially if you use the Disney busses back to MCO.
