What time do you get back to the hotel after cruise?

[Princesca]

I'm looking into stroller rental but I have no idea what would be a 'safe' time to arrange for drop off the day we get off the cruise. We are staying at Pop Century. What's the safest, earliest 'meet up' time I should select to receive the stroller?

It depends on how soon you get off the ship and on the bus, plus the number of resorts covered by your route that day and the order in which the resorts are visited. A safe drop-off time would be 11:45, since Disney recommends not booking anything in the parks before 12:30.

That being said, when we rented a stroller many years ago, they left it with bell services and we never had any contact with the employee of the rental agency at both ends of the rental.

Thanks!! Unfortunately apparently only one company is allowed to drop at Disney bell services now. We might end up still using them, but I was investigating other options.

In May, we walked off the ship with our bags just before 8:00 am, quickly went through customs and were on the bus within 10 minutes. We waited for the bus to fill and made it to the airport between 9 and 9:30 am. I’m guessing airport buses fill up quicker, so that will be a factor on when you’ll get to your resort. Plus, if you have your luggage collected the night before, you’ll have to wait for your group to be called, which can be awhile. For our pick up, Pop Century was the last stop for our bus to port, so that can add 30 minutes or so to your trip.

With all the potential delays, I’d schedule for sometime in the afternoon, just to be safe.

We are staying at AoA after our cruise and I put 1p for stroller meet. I thought it would be safe enough since we’re not doing a park on that day

I think we might end up doing Scooterbug and paying a little more just because I don't want to be held up that day. If we decide we want to do DS would be nice to not have to worry.
