serene56 Posted March 15, 2016 #5 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Checked bags must be checked in before 9:30. Give himself some lee way with the lines for that. then security. an hour at 9:30 on a weekend is not enough time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonnaK Posted March 15, 2016 #6 Share Posted March 15, 2016 If you do self-disembarkation from Oasis, then it is likely you will be off the ship by 6:30-7am, and at the airport 10-15 minutes later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We plan on walking off and getting a cab to airport. I am A plus preferred on Southwest and TSA Precheck so we hope to not have much line issues as long as customs is open for Navigator.

jcg4550 Posted March 15, 2016 #8 Share Posted March 15, 2016 We have walked off the Oasis & Allure several times at 7:00 am, got to airport before 8:00am & made 10:30am flights easily. However, I still keep my fingers crossed & hope the airlines come through then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I still keep my fingers crossed & hope the airlines come through then. This is the case most of the time. However, our Allure arrival a couple of years ago was delayed due to our ship providing assistance to a sea search. We made our 11:45 flight without a problem, but anything earlier than that would have been iffy. You will probably be fine - just be aware that problems can occur.

Easter is the 27th. :rolleyes: anywhoooo I do hope you get through customs quickly as we get on the same ship that day :-) enjoy your trip!

Kamloops50 Posted March 15, 2016 #11 Share Posted March 15, 2016 If you do self-disembarkation from Oasis, then it is likely you will be off the ship by 6:30-7am, and at the airport 10-15 minutes later. Orlando airport is 45 minutes from Port Canaveral assuming the freeway isn't blocked by a accident. 10:30AM is still cutting it to close for my liking.

My my own sanity, I will not book before 11:30. We've done that mad dash to the airport, and it's not worth the stress. Perhaps you can do an excursion and grab a nice lunch somewhere..
