@cruisegal40 I am confident you will make the 11:15 flight from POM to MIA. TSA at Miami Airport always seems to take forever. MIA is one of the only airports I follow the "arrive 2 hours early" rule. Also, Spring Break official here & will end in late April. Which will make TSA in Miami, FLL, and MCO worse on weekends.

@jean87510 Can you tell me more about your experience from Port of Miami to FLL? We are doing this in a few weeks. Ship docks in Port of Miami at 6:30 AM & we fly out of FLL at 12:15 pm. Self-assist bags / Carry-on & plan to Uber direct to FLL. How much of a rush was it to make your 10 AM flight out of FLL?

Yes, they are about the same. Main Character Syndrome is when a person or people imagine themselves as the main character in a movie. Symptoms include: The inability to view oneself as anything other than the main character of one’s own life. A lack of empathy for anyone seen as a supporting character in your narrative (friends, coworkers, family members). An overinflated sense of self-importance and entitlement on account of playing such a lead role in one’s own life story. Excessive fantasizing and daydreaming about one’s heroic exploits. A chronic need for external validation to feel like the main character of one’s life is living up to expectations.

Joining in on the fun of listing my 'never' list. Never book a ocean view/balcony/suite. Only Interiors here-- spend less, cruise more :) Never sail with children or friends with children. Personal preference. Sorry, not sorry. Never attend or purchase art on a cruise. Never attend shore excursions or port shopping information sessions. Never settle for base gratuities for primary crew members. (Cabin attendant, MDR waiters, favorite bartender.) Never forget to take photos of Crew member name tags that provide exceptional service. Never select late dinner service. Never swim in the main pool. .Never sit in a deck lounge chair. Never miss an opportunity to laugh at Day 2 'Sunburn Lobbers'. Never miss a game of trivia. I'm a birdbrain, but I love it 🙂 Never miss a stage production by the Royal singers & dancers. Always an amazing & talented group! Never have 'Main Character Syndrome' just because I'm on vacation.
