Miami flight times for the NCL Escape

[kvickers]

Will a 2:15pm arrival into Miami airport be too late to get to the port for the NCL Escape? We have had a flight schedule change and now I'm wondering what do do? The sailing is on a Saturday and we are a family of 6 people.

What time do you sail? What time does check-in finish? (check your cruise documents).

 

Most ships sail about 4:30-5:00 and stop check in about 3-3:30.

 

IF your flight is on time, it will still take you 30+ minutes to get off the plane and collect bags and into a cab. WAY TOO CLOSE! :eek:

 

Go back to the airline, tell them the schedule change will not work and fly in earlier in the day or preferably the day before! ;)

Thanks so much for your response!

Agree! Call the airline. They have to reschedule you. This sounds like a nightmare for a group that size. Flying in a day in advance is the answer. Come back if you need help with hotel ideas.

If you can switch to the day before arrival I highly recommend it.

I am pleased to say that I called the airline and after an hour of discussing this issue they agreed to change it so that we can fly in one day pre cruise!

Glad it worked out! our Escape sailing in Oct. doesn't sail until 7 p.m.
