    We are trying to figure out flights from Seattle to Orlando for our cruise and we're wondering what time we should arrive in time to get to the cruise terminal

    Ahoy, Jenny!

    Setting sail with Disney Cruise Line to end October is a magical way to celebrate the Halloween SEAson! I'm sure costume prep is underway for Mickey's Mouse-Querade Party, with your favorite Disney friends dressed up in their spooktacular attire for the festive deck party. I know your crew can't wait to enjoy all the fun! 

    Jenny, I always like to arrive at least one day before embarkation day. As you know, air travel can be stressful, so this helps in case of delays or issues beyond your control. If arriving early isn't possible, Disney Cruise Line recommends arriving by 11:30 am on embarkation day and departing no earlier than 11:15 am on disembarkation day for the Orlando International Airport. You can purchase Disney Cruise Line ground transportation from Orlando International Airport to Port Canaveral. This begins around 10:00 am on Side B, Level 1. If you arrive the day before, Disney Cruise Line can help arrange a pre-cruise stay at either the Hyatt Regency inside Orlando International Airport or a Disney Resort Collection hotel. Both of these options also offer Disney Cruise Line ground transportation as an add-on. You can add ground transportation and/or a pre-cruise stay by calling Disney Cruise Line at 1(800) 951-3532 Monday-Friday from 8:00 am to 10:00 pm or Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 am to 8:00 pm Eastern Time.  Port Canaveral is located about 45 minutes from the airport and an hour or so from the Walt Disney World Resort, depending on traffic. 

    Your Halloween on the High Seas adventure will be filled with the most magical moments, Jenny. I know you are excited to see the amazing Broadway-style shows in the Walt Disney Theatre, enjoy the live musicians, and rock the night away on Pirate Night! The entertainment aboard Disney Cruise Line is truly spectacular. 

    Thank you for reaching out to planDisney. Soon you'll be experiencing a voyage like no other with the best Cast & Crew on the high seas.
