mrpayroll Posted September 16, 2010 #2 Share Posted September 16, 2010 I would be comfortable with that ..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
okgirl Posted September 16, 2010 #3 Share Posted September 16, 2010 You will have plenty of time. If you are using the ships transfer you will probably be headed that direction by 9 or so. (It's a 45 minute drive). We always rent a car when we sail from there and we get off early VIP self assist, get our car and go to a favorite breakfast place before we head back to the airport.

So you rent a car right at the pier? We were wondering which rental companies have a spot that we could rent at the airport then drop off at the pier then do the same on the return?

Rare crewsweeper Posted September 17, 2010 #5 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Is a 1:50pm flight out of Orlando, FL too early? More than enough time. Maybe too much. We were in zone 10 debarking and off the ship and home (4.5 hour drive) before then. BIL/SIL did self debark for an early flight, walked off the ship at 7:30A and had a 2.5 wait in the airport after going through security. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deborahjo Posted September 17, 2010 #6 Share Posted September 17, 2010 We were off the ship by 9:00 am and on our way back to Orlando. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pe4all Posted September 17, 2010 #7 Share Posted September 17, 2010 Is a 1:50pm flight out of Orlando, FL too early? Should be fine with that. Our 1:30 flight just got changed to 12:00 - I am a bit nervous about that, but will get off the ship quickly to make sure we make it! (3rd flight time change since we booked last Feb!)

pinkbugs471 Posted September 17, 2010 #8 Share Posted September 17, 2010 We were on the Dream last week. Were we zone 9 and they had us off the ship by 7:40. We used the Carnival transport bus to the airport. I believe we were there around 9. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arpie05 Posted September 17, 2010 #10 Share Posted September 17, 2010 We did self disembark and were off the ship at 6:50AM. I think we were zone 11 and that is about when we were off. I was amazed how early we were off. We back at the condo by 7 am and took a nap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katiel53 Posted September 17, 2010 #13 Share Posted September 17, 2010 There aren't any car rentals at the port, but there are shuttles from the port to the car rental locations. I am enclosing a thread that has tons of info about car rental, shuttle service etc. If you go to post 295 I think, that's where the info is. If you have time to read more, please do so as there is a ton of info. Enjoy Pt Canaveral. It's our favorite port. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1119114&page=15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SANDYJABS Posted September 17, 2010 #14 Share Posted September 17, 2010 We live about 30 min past the airport and we arrived home from the Dream around 9:30 am. You will have plenty of time to make your flight. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing with me only mine changed from 1:30 to 12:30 so I have a little more time. Everyone I have spoken to indicated that the Dream always gets in before 8AM and with self debarkation you can be off by 8:30 or earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiraryker Posted September 21, 2010 Author #19 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Ok so now our flight is at 12:22 - but it looks like that won't be a problem to get to the Orlando airport? Do we do self assist to get off the ship faster?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope it's not with United Airlines. They actually cancelled my sisters flight. She only had the option of flying out at 10:50AM. Her regular flight was to leave at 1:35PM. There's no way with all the ships coming in on a Saturday and Disney traffic that we were going to be able to make a 10:50AM flight. So United cancelled her ticket. I was P*ssed to be honest. Her same ticket (we got for $276.00 RT)is now selling for $531.00 and they were not willing to accomodate on helping with anything. So now she is flying to my city and driving down with me. Then flying back out of my city the following day after coming back. Will NEVER book with United airlines again!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meredith9217 Posted September 21, 2010 #21 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I beleive we were off the Dream no later than 8:00. We had a flight out at 1:55PM, wished we had booked the 12:00PM flight instead. I would not worry, if you go through Carnival and allow them to handle your luggage, print your boarding passes (think it was $50 per person??) they will have you there by time.

pe4all Posted September 21, 2010 #23 Share Posted September 21, 2010 Hope it's not with United Airlines.Will NEVER book with United airlines again!!!! Actually, it is with American. Our 9 a.m. flight down was changed to 7:30 a.m. (no big deal, except we now have to get up at 4:30 a.m. to get to the airport!) And our 1:30 flight home was changed to 12:30, then 12. Hope it doesn't get any earlier than that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiraryker Posted September 21, 2010 Author #24 Share Posted September 21, 2010 our flight wasn't booked thru Carnival - so I'm thinking we can grab a rental car to get back to the airport? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnssu123 Posted September 21, 2010 #25 Share Posted September 21, 2010 We got off the dream with self debarkation at around 7, went outside, ask a shuttle for a price ($40- $50 for the two of us), and were at the airport at 8:45. Exteremly fast and painless. I accidentally booked an 11:15 flight, and was afraid we couldn't make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
