susan1957 Posted January 31, 2019 Author #3 Share Posted January 31, 2019 We are Platinum...I think we can get off one of the first, if I am correct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ober134 Posted January 31, 2019 #4 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Probably. FLL is hit or miss re: TSA lines. Even with pre check we waited 45 mins once. Do you have pre arranged shuttle from POM? We once also had total traffic stoppage on I-95 from an accident. If things all go smoothly it may be doable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofygal531 Posted January 31, 2019 #5 Share Posted January 31, 2019 You’ll be fine. We have a 12:50 pm flight. You will more than likely arrive at the airport before 10am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAUDERDALE..TIA Does your ship dock in Ft Lauderdale? If so you are very, very close to the airport and making your flight will be easy. if your ship docks in Miami and you have to travel to Ft Lauderdale you will still have time if you get off the ship early and have pre-arranged transportation, Have a wonderful cruise!!

lcpagejr Posted January 31, 2019 #7 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Piece of cake.... especially if your cruising out of Ft Lauderdale. We've regularly booked 11am flights and we cruise during holidays and spring break seasons and have never come close to being nervous or worried....as a matter of fact we have a 12:50pm flight out of FLL on Easter Sunday after our cruise and I plan to be one of the last off the ship.

joepeka Posted January 31, 2019 #8 Share Posted January 31, 2019 We have never (in half a dozen cruises out of PE) been at the FLL airport later than 10AM and we don't use self debark. YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elaine5715 Posted February 3, 2019 #11 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Recommended time by Carnival is after 12 noon so you are fine and odds are you will be there well before 10 am but your travel insurance will cover any delays since you are following guidelines.

FromKYtotheOcean Posted February 3, 2019 #12 Share Posted February 3, 2019 We made our 11:10 flight last June easily. We were at the airport by 8:05 honestly. We were probably one of the first 100 off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crooooze Posted February 3, 2019 #13 Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Last month, We had an 11:30 flight out of FLL. We did self-assist and made it with plenty of time. We were at the Platinum meeting point at 7:09 (on the Conquest) Off the ship at 7:15 Through Customs by 7:35 Waited for a taxi until 7:50 Arrived at airport check-in at 8:00 Went through TSA security check and were sitting at the departure gate looking for coffee by 8:35 And that was during the government shutdown... So, as long as the ship gets in on time, it’s no issue. Edited February 3, 2019 by crooooze Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofygal531 Posted February 3, 2019 #14 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Would love to hear experiences from Port of Miami to Fort Lauderdale Airport. We plan to do self-assist, have Transportation shuttle arranged, and have TSA Pre check. i think we’ll be fine. But enjoy reading everyone’s experiences.

I also used Carnival shuttles back. I am at Fort Lauderdale airport most always by 9 am. Luggage check in there can be 60 minutes or 5 minutes depending on how many ships are in. I have been through with 9 ships in and it is standing room only. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennythenose Posted February 3, 2019 #17 Share Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) Last weekend we were debarking the Conquest in Ft Lauderdale. We had FTTF but did not use self debarkation. Our group was leaving the dining room at 8:20 as we were walking up for our 8:30 meeting time so Diamonds and Platinums would have been just before us. We used the Mobil Passport app so we were able to go to the front of what little line there was at customs. Super fast and easy!

evandbob Posted February 3, 2019 #18 Share Posted February 3, 2019 Does FLL still have the dedicated Global Entry Customs line at the seaport? It was there my last two times at that port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
