What time to leave for the airport?

[PRINCESS VIJA]

We have always left on the early flight, this will be new to us, we are taking the red eye home!

Our flight leaves at 11:15 PM. We definetely want to be at the airport check in 2 hours earlier, and we will have a car rental to return, considering traffic on a Friday night what time would you leave the DLR area?

I say 3 hours prior just to be safe.

Hey there

I would say leave between 8-8:30 at the latest.

Forgive the derail... but my question is the same.... we fly out at 2:15 PM from LAX... staying at the fairfield... we will be doing the Disney shuttle back and forth, do we call that day, or make plans before that day for them to pick us up for our return trip?? Do they have set times that they pick up?? we are taking a small plane out ( allegiant air) so need to be there Im sure 2 hours early. How long does it take this shuttle to get all the folks and head to the airport? ( I hear they go to the disneyland hotel ) We have already paid for this thru get away today, not sure how it all works at all

Agreed. The car rental shuttle is the wildcard in the situation, along with gassing the car up if you didn't prepay for the fillup, so earlier is better.

Disneyland Express bus, yes?

DLH is the place they leave from, yes. You can go to grayline's disneyland express website and find their link to the PDF catalog with the schedules and other info about scheduling, etc. Iv'e only taken it from the DLH so I really don't know personally how it all works from other hotels and motels... but with DLH we didn't have to schedule our departure.
