Virgin flight - 11.15am LGW - MCO 16:40

I'm assuming lots of you guys get this flight.

When you've used ME to get to your Disney Resort about what time have you arrived?

 

[tinkandonaldfans]

Well it really depends on how you plan to get to your hotel. We always seem to be the last stop and there doesn't seem to be any logical way of figuring it out.

I tried making an ADR for Boma for when we arrived at AKL for about 7:30pm. I thought that would give us plenty of time but the flights were delayed by about half an hour or so and it took over an hour to get to the hotel so we missed our ressie. So lesson learned no ADR's on arrival day!

Is this earlier flight back on now as this is the flight we normally get , when we booked for 2011 there was only one flight & that was the later one

 

[torsie24]

Yeah, we have it all booked for March 2011.

 

[Goofysmate]

towards the end of sept still looks like one flight which is 1pm , hoping they put the earlier flight back on as we much prefer that one.

Oh OK, well I recon at your 11 month mark when the flights are properly released than you'll see the 11.15

we get this flight when we go and we normally get to hotel between 5 and half 5 but we hire a car and carry luggage all the way through instead of putting it back in. We also sit at the front of economy so are one of the first off so immigration is not so bad

Wow, that's great timing!

We're at the back of the plane! Lol. But if we can avoid it I won't be putting my luggage back on!

We are on this flight in June and arrive at 3.25pm so hoping to be cleared through immigration by 4.30

Wow! I wonder how come your flight time is so much shorter? That'd be awesome if you landy that much earlier.

I was on this flight last year, I think if there is only 1 flight a day they only have the 1pm and if one of the two is cancelled because they are not busy they keep the 1pm one?

We have always been on our way on the ME bus within 45 mins of landing, BUT we always sit at the front and avoid any toliets stops until after immigration to get through the queues....we have always been very lucky and have never had to wait for a ME bus either, we have literally walked onto one and not had to queue

we had the 1pm take-off on 26/5, landed at 5.15pm local time. After going through customs etc we boarded ME at 6.00pm. We were the second stop of four at POR and arrived at POR at 6.35. I will add that our bags were on the carousel when we got there and only had to wait 5mins at mco before the bus left.

Hope this helps.

 

[scojos]

we did this flight, landed at 5is.h, got into the far right lane for immigrations, got through and then dh went to get car and we went on ME
we arrived at PORS after waiting some time at MCO for bus, at about 6.30 which was cool.
HOWEVER, we left ME deal with our bags and they arrived at 11pm
kids were in bed already (after a very long day as you can imagine, i had just got out of the shower, so poor dh was half asleep trying to deal with bell boy...moral? take your bages with you, we hadnt packed much in our hand luggage (clothes wise) and so were in a bit of a mess
anyway, me is good, but not the fastest
