a Fligth after 1pm is safe just in cases there's some delay in Debarkation

Answered by Razor78 on February 05, 2024

10:30-11:00am departure flight is generally the earliest I would aim for to give you enough time to get off the ship with your luggage and arrive at the airport to check in, get through security. I would also recommend requesting one of the first time slots to disembark from the ship. This can be done at guest services. Most ships kick you off by 9am so best to get right off the ship and head home. I think afternoon flights 1pm+ have you waiting at the airport too long time when all you want to do is get home.

The safe bet is nothing before noon. That gives enough of a cushion should the ship be delayed in clearing customs. Anything earlier is still doable, provided everything stays on schedule, but generally isn’t worth the added stress should there be a delay.

I have an 11:55 AM post-cruise flight in July. It was arranged through "Flights by Celebrity". Hopefully, they can ensure I get to the airport on time. 🤞

Our flight leaves @2:25P from FLL. Plenty of time to leave Miami.

Answered by spiotter on February 04, 2024

FLL is very easy and quick to get to from the ship. It’s a 15 minute taxi ride. You will be fine with anything after noon.

You can see the port from the airport it’s very close maybe 15 minutes. You can make a late morning flight.
