Airport Pickup Timing?

[Qaz12129]

for a Pearl pickup on a Saturday for a noon flight how much time are people leaving? USA transfers scheduled 3 1/2 hours which seemed excessive based on our past trips - thx in advance!

I think they are adding time as a buffer due to the road construction that's happening between the resort and the airport.

You can actually do a quick search (top right corner) as this topic has been discussed thoroughly on this forum since last August. Bottom line is that additional time is needed in most cases as it does back up quite a bit between the resort and the airport.

yes read all of those - was trying to see if there was a difference weekdays vs weekends

We always leave on weekdays and nearly missed our flight last time.

Wrecks and traffic and a driver who drove like a 80 year old woman.

We left Pearl on Saturday 25 Feb @ 0815 hrs for a 1145 hrs flight (USA Transfers) We arrived at airport 30 mins later !! There were no traffic delays.
Having said that, when leaving Pearl on Sat 02 Dec 2022 it took 2 hrs !!! (Just got our flight in time). I guess its always better to be on the safe side and give yourself extra time.

We just left Sunday March 12. Traffic wasn't too bad at 1130 but some construction taking place even on Sunday.
The Friday before it was a good 30 minute delay on our way to the hotel zone.
