papaflamingo Posted August 31, 2015 #1 Share Posted August 31, 2015 We will be on Rhapsody in 2 weeks for the Sep. 15 Greek Isle cruise. We are trying for a 10:55 flight back home. I see the ship gets in at 5:00 am. We will not self carry walk off, but are D+ so we can get first off. I am planning to set up a pickup at 7:15. Is this reasonable? I read one review that said they started calling numbers at 5:40. Was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? If so, how early do they disembark those who are not doing self-carry walk off? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alfaeric Posted August 31, 2015 #3 Share Posted August 31, 2015 We'll find out with you. But our travel plans were changed in the opposite direction- we don't leave until a day after our planned leaving. Dang airlines. Hopefully someone can confirm your departure time, but drive wise, you should be able to make it to FCO by 8:55, leaving at 7:15. It took us under an hour to drive that span a few years ago (not on a cruise, but driving by the port to the airport). See you on the ship!

Baby_Bear Posted August 31, 2015 #4 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Papaflamingo, we just got off our Greek Isles cruise yesterday, and we had an early morning flight leaving FCO at 9:55 am. We made it with about an hours extra cushion! Should be no problem at all for you. I posted the link to that thread below, which I had started to reassure folks that had an early flight. Let me know if you have additional questions. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=2253946 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am an airline pilot so I will be flying standby. Earliest flight I can take is 10:55 so doesn't sound like it'll be too much problem if we pickup at 7:30. Thanks for the information. It really helps. And thanks to others also. Really appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
