dreamboat43 Posted August 4, 2023 #1 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Is it possible to comfortable make a 10:55am departure from Fort Launderdale? The ship is arriving to the port of Fort Lauderdale at 7am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted August 4, 2023 #2 Share Posted August 4, 2023 Many discussions here on the topic. Yes, you can make 10:55. Carry your luggage off and grab a cab. You can make the flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted August 5, 2023 #3 Share Posted August 5, 2023 A 10:55 am flight should not be a problem. We normally get to the airport by 9 AM taking a taxi. The earlier you get to FLL the better, as once the cruiseline buses start arriving (usually after 9 am) the longer the checkin and security lines get.

capriccio Posted August 6, 2023 #4 Share Posted August 6, 2023 I agree with @CruiserBruceand @DaveOKC. We (family group of 8 including an almost 4 year old and an 8 1/2 year old) had an 11:20 am flight in July. We requested the first disembarkation for early flights (not self disembarkation) and were collecting our luggage by 8:15 am. We called 2 Ubers and were at the airport before 8:45. The check-in process (at a kiosk) was quick as was TSA and we easily found seats at the gate. The concourse did fill get quite crowded by 10:00. An important caveat is that there were only 2 (IIRC) ships disembarking passengers. If it had been a high season (Chirstmas to Easter) weekend there might have been 6 or more. That's lots more passengers competing for transportation, ticket kiosks, and TSA security checks. In that case, we would have taken a taxi rather than waited about 7 minutes for Ubers.
