John Bull Posted June 6, 2023 #2 Share Posted June 6, 2023 At a glance it looks distinctly risky. You need to find out the disembarkation time in Gran Canaria - 6am will be ship's arrival time, so earliest disembarkation time is likely to be at least an hour later. Drive-time from port to airport in Gran Canaria is about 20 to 30 minutes. Then you'll be flying to .......... ..... mainland Spain ? .... another EU country ? ... outside the EU ? Is there a later flight to your intended destination (or for a connection to your final destination) ? If permitted, would disembarking at the last port-of-call give you a better choice of flights ? Sorry - all questions & no answers 🙄 JB 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next flight is 14:00 That means going thro immigration in Gran Canaria, tho' usually no big delay.. You really need confirmation that you are likely to be able to dis-embark by about 7.30am (that'd likely be unassisted, ie haul your own bags from your cabin). In a taxi by 8am at the latest. Otherwise I'd be inclined to play safe & book the 2pm flight. Others might think differently JB 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Harters Posted June 7, 2023 #5 Share Posted June 7, 2023 It's years since I last visited Gran Canaria and can't remember the airport at all. But I'd generally agree with John Bull that the 10.05 could be do-able if everything goes well but the later one will be much more stress free.

tiggerbbt Posted June 10, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted June 10, 2023 What about a flight to Madrid at 10:05 if I carry my luggage off with me and am flying business class? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
