We live in Harmony FL and also will just drive to Miami. We are bouncing off the walls with excitement, beyond ready.So where is everyone coming from? We live in Orlando just will just drive to Miami. I cannot believe how close we are getting! We are so ready!
We too are driving down from Orlando, but not because we want too! We are flying from Oregon and booked a great non stop to Fort Lauderdale. But that flight does not exist any longer. Our carrier basically says it's a 2 day trip to either Miami or Fort Lauderdale. BUT they had a very good non stop into Orlando, so that's what we are doing. Fly down Friday, Drive to Fort Lauderdale Saturday and then to the port on Sunday
When we found out about the change in flights we decided to keep our Fort Lauderdale hotel ressie but drop the 1st night. The hotel chain (Hilton) kept our good rate for just the one night. Looking to rebook any other Hilton property in the Fort Lauderdale / Miami area would have at least doubled the cost of the room.
Speaking of Fort Lauderdale, are things back to normal there. We saw that last week the city was under water ... 2 feet of rain in a day . I have called our hotel and they say its business as usual at there hotel.
Coming from London !! Flying into Miami on the Wednesday evening (3rd May) so can ……. (a) start the trip with day(s) to relax before embarkation and (b) more importantly, ensure that if any flight delays / cancellations etc etc are encountered that I have zero chance of becoming stressed out. This was very much a spur of the moment, last minute decision and am somewhat stressed/nervous already as this will be my first ever ‘solo’ DCL cruise without my son - a journey which started back in 1998 on one of the maiden Disney Magic voyages. Could not miss being part of the 25th Anniversary celebrations !! -So where is everyone coming from? We live in Orlando just will just drive to Miami. I cannot believe how close we are getting!

Well, Tom was concerned about flights and weather, so now, we are flying on Friday and will spend a night at BWV. Then we will drive and spend a night in Miami. Tom is feeling better about this.…
