We are cruising out of Port Canaveral. We are scheduled to get in at 7am but with this being our 3rd cruise we know how things work. We had scheduled a flight for 1:30pm and were just informed our flight had been changed to 12:15pm. If we use the cruise line transfer to the airport should we be ok?
Mandi, in my opinion, that would be cutting it close. As your flight is at 12:15, you'll have to be checked in by 11:15, and with lines at the airport being as long as they are when ships are in port, you will be in for a long wait. Add to that the roughly 1 hour trip to the airport from the cruise port.
I'd see about changing to a later flight, as indicated in your other post. Waiting in an airport for a flight on which you are confirmed is better than waiting in an airport for a backup flight because you missed the first. It will also make for a more relaxing disembarkation day.
Well, we were in by 7AM, did NOT ask for early departure and were in our Hotel at Disney by 10:30. But we had a rental car. I don't know how the cruise line transfer would treat you. If that is ALL you could get for a flight out, you might be ok but I agree it is tight.
