How long do I need to wait?

[charity]

If my return flight is at 7:50pm what time will be be scheduled to get on DME for our flight home? (Air tran) I would like to spend some time at a park before we leave, so I would love to have an estimate of what time we will need to be at the bus stop.
Thanks for any help

If I remember correctly, DME return times are about 3 hours before the flight, so you're looking at somewhere around 5:00 at the latest.

I don't know if the 3 hour approximation has or will change if airport security measures increase, but I suppose they could.

Just remember that whatever time your bus is scheduled to pick you up, you need to be at the bus stop 15 minutes early. The ME buses can and do arrive early and if you are not there, they will leave without you.

When we were there in December our flight out was at 7:25pm therefore our ME docs told us the bus will be picking us up at 4:45pm, of course you have to be at the bus stop 15 minutes prior to pick up. That day it was Early EMH at MK and we had breakfast ADRs for CRT at 8:05 am, so we got to play for quite awhile before having to head back to get our bus. This was the first time that we took the latest flight out and decided that is the definitely the way to go from here on out
