My family and I normally drive down to WDW but this is my first time flying solo to Disney and using ME. My Best Friend and I are celebrating our birthdays together without the kiddies! ( she's turning 40 this year and I'm turning 38 ;) )

We are going down Oct 26-30 and since I am deep in the throws of planning I was wondering what the travel times are like. We are both arriving at MCO at 2:00pm ( Fingers crossed and pixie dust for no delays!) so what time do you think we will arrrive at the hotel- oh we are staying at BWI.

Also, our flight out of MCO to head home on the 30th leaves at 7:30 pm so what time do we need to be ready to get on the ME back to the airport. We want to make the very most of our last day of course!

happy birthdays
from landing to resort if all goes well 70 to 90 min. could be less if it works out perfect.

be at the bus by 4:15 pm ( that would be 3 hrs plus DME says 15 min extra as bus will leave at 4:30PM)
 
great- thanks! Just what I needed and those times will work out perfect. I feel like we will have plenty of time on our last day and not feel so rushed. When we drive we are up and out by 6 am on check out day which stinks!

If your flight arrives ontime, at 2pm, you should be at BWI around 3:15ish.

As far as return time to MCO, probably about 4:20ish. Be out at the DME, all ready to go, at least 15 mins before the stated pickup time. The pickup time is NOT when you should be arrving at the stop..it is much more likely to be the bus departure time!!!
