Marco Polo Airport check in

[drewlin]

I'm sure that I've read various negative postings about the chaos of checking in at this airport but now can't seem to find them (it's an age thing:(). I'll be returning from my cruise in October via this airport and will have checked in online prior to the cruise. As I will only have to do a bag drop and security what time do you think I will need to be there for a 13.30 flight on a Sunday. I do not want to spoil my cruise by worrying about getting on our flight!

We flew out last November after a cruise. Baggage drop was more of a mob trying to get by one guy who controlled entrance to the drop area. Everyone was pushing to get thru. After that there was a horrible line for security. It went on forever. Get there very early.

1:30 PM will be fine. Glad you didn't say early in the morning.

Thanks for that - it is what I was dreading to hear. If I known about this before hand it would certainly have influenced my decision over which cruise to choose.
