Reflection Self-Disembarkation Miami - Early Flight

[sfspider]

Wondering if anyone caught an early Saturday flight out of Miami this spring and how smooth the self-disembarkation process was on the Reflection. The only direct flight home for us leaves Miami just before 11 a.m. on a Saturday in early April 2017. Thanks for any advice you may have.

We got off Eclipse in Miami last fall and made an 11:30 flight, and we were 2 hours early. We did do self-disembarkation and just lined up early.

We did not pre-arrange a transfer, we just got out and grabbed the first cab we saw. 20 min. later we were at the airport.

 

We have TSA Pre Screen and that normally helps in security lines.

 

If there is a hold-up with customs or something it can be an issue for a flight, but chances are you can make it just fine if you get off early.

What time did you get off the ship ?

We have the same issue this Oct. as the airline moved our flight up by 1 1/2 hours to 11:55. I know we can switch to FT L airport for a direct flight , but don't want to do that.

It was a year ago, so maybe not totally current info, but we did 930am flight. Could have done 830 based on when we actually got to the airport.

Thanks for the info, makes me feel a bit better about booking around 11 am (we are TSA Pre Screen as well, which will help further reduce the stress).

The last two times, we walked off the ship around 7:30 am in Miami and walked right thru Customs. Was not a problem for us.
