11:00 am flight from Miami

[lara68]

Do you think we will be ok booking a flight that leaves Miami at 11:00 am?  We plan to carry our own bags off of the ship as soon as it docks.  We have never had a problem out of FLL but this is our first time docking in Miami and we're not familiar with how long it takes to get from the dock to the airport.  Thanks!

You should have no problem since you are self debarking.

Docking at POM or PE?

 

For an 11:00AM flight you need to be at MIA by 9:30, and earlier is better.  From POM to MIA is about a 15-20+ minute cab ride (weekday or weekend? ).  Fare should be $27+ tip or you can try Uber or Lyft for about $20.  That translates into off the ship, with bags, and clear of customs/immigration NLT 9:00.  From POM it should be easy.

 

From PE to POM the ride, especially on a weekday, will take closer to an hour - you will need to carry your bags off and be among the earliest off the ship.

 

Have a great cruise!

you should not have any problem at all since you will walk your own luggage off.  Just be one of the first to leave the ship with your luggage and the customs lines will be short, or no lines at all, and get a Lyft or cab to airport.  You will be there with time to spare.

Enjoy your cruise

I have done it twice, no issues...once on a Saturday and the other on a Sunday.

We routinely book the 10:45 am flight home....you don't even have to do self-carry.  Just tell them you have an early flight and you can be on one of the 1st groups off the ship.   The airport is about 20 mins ride.
