Disembarking the Allure - Another Question


Recommended Posts

We will be disembarking the Allure on 7/1 and have an 11:40am flight to JFK. We usually do luggage valet and our flight is after 11:30 so we are OK to use it on this trip. This is the earliest return flight we have ever had. If we want to be sitting at the gate no later that 10:30 what time should we disembark to get through customs, get a taxi and arrive at FLL?

 

 

Thanks

The process at Port Everglades is very efficient, and unless your itinerary is an international repositioning cruise that could add to customs timing, you should be able to disembark the ship and be through customs in about a half hour. To be at the gate by 10:30 you should be dropped off at the airport between 9:00 - 9:30. It is only a 10 -15 minute cab ride to FLL.

 

That all being said, if you are disembarking by 8:00 - 8:30 you will be fine. We typically have flights between 10:30 - 11:00 from FLL and make them with plenty of time to spare. Not recommending this but our earliest (out of necessity) one time was 9:50, and we made the gate with 45 minutes to spare.

And I think there is only 1 or 2 ships in that day. OP, have a great time. Wish I could get flights like that!
