How many cruise ships in POM

[mammothskier]

We are sailing on Carnival Liberty from POM. Other than us and RCCL ship, are there any other ships in POM on 9/5/09? We are looking at booking 10:40am flight out of MIA. After searching the forum, it seems we have a decent chance to make it with self-debark unless there are too many ships in port and customs/immigration are spread too thin. There's 11:35am flight out of FLL which is IMHO the same risk.

Not sure I'd take that chance. Just recently a Carnival ship helped rescue people in the ocean and didn't get back into port until 9:30. No difference about FLL. Why WORRY about making the flight after spending a week relaxing and getting rid of the worries. IMHO

There are a zillion things that could go wrong making you miss your flight. The cruise lines ask you book after 12Noon for a reason.

If ship gets to port that late, even official Carnival cutoff @11:30am goes out of the window. This is what travel insurance is for.
