JosieRhodes Posted May 20, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 20, 2019 (edited) So, I’m waffling on which one to pick... They all connect to same flight thru ATL to get home. Wondering which one involves least stress 😊😳😊. A 9:45am flight with 3 hr layover, 10:45am flight with 2 hr layover, or 11:45am flight with 1 hr layover. I also do not want to miss flight out of ATL! Again, we would be coming off Allure in FLL and heading to FLL airport after cruise. decisions... Thanks for input.

bajathree Posted May 20, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Play safe all the way around and go with 10:45 with 2 hr layover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Readytogo Posted May 20, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I would book the 10:45 flight. That gives you plenty of time to sleep to a reasonable hour and have a relaxing breakfast before disembarking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken at the beach Posted May 20, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Another vote for the 10:45 flight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted May 20, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 20, 2019 We just left the Allure with suite walk-off on May 5th. (used valet luggage service)met at 8:00am. in suite lounge Got a blue sticker to wear so they new we were suite guests. Left suite lounge at 8:15 Re-grouped in champagne bar..... Lead by crew member and concierge (Dexter) past the long line of fellow passengers. Down the escalators.. Lead by dock attendant to front of line to gain access to customs. (Some guest from regular debark line wiggled into ours, but at one point the attendant noticed they did not have a suite sticker on and made them leave the line and wait in a holding pen until their number came up to leave). Our line went before the other line waiting to get to customs. Showed our passports Agent said have a good day Off to cab stand No line In cab on way to airport. At airport 8:35am This was the longest to get to the gate for us. We had first class seats on Delta, and went in thru priority line to TSA But the lines were very long at this time............. By the time we walked and sat at the gate it was 9:05 am 50min. from suite lounge to gate. This was the longest time it ever took, because of TSA. Still not complaining, we got luggage valet, and our flight did not leave till 11:55am Take care. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simply that when you are in a suite you have the option to be escorted off the ship by the attendants at certain times. This helps you get off the ship quicker. Just providing our experience. For those not in a suite or non-key the time can be much longer waiting in that long line. This way the OP can see what worked for us and maybe someone else can post what worked for them. Sharing my experience since CC is a wealth of knowledge . Have a good day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maggieq Posted May 20, 2019 #9 Share Posted May 20, 2019 Why do people have to be so rude when others are simply trying to help? 10:45 looks like the best option to me 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted May 20, 2019 #10 Share Posted May 20, 2019 10:45 is easily the best option. Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JosieRhodes Posted May 21, 2019 Author #12 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Nope not in a suite 😊, but thanks for all the input. I am leaning towards 10:45am flight, but was curious what others thought as never been in FLL airport before. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
