So we just disembarked the Dream with it being our 2nd time we chose a 10:00 flight after a cruise. We were in line for express walk off by 7:25. The ship’s atrium area was already pretty full. CMs were present to direct people
Out of curiosity while waiting, I looked up Uber availability:

We were delayed leaving the ship another 20 mins. No explanation was given. Once we disembarked and passed through immigration, we got outside and ordered our Uber. That was approximately 7:58am. By then the offered price from Uber dropped to $18.28.
By 8.36 we were arriving at MIA.

It was a short line to check our bag which took approximately 10 mins. Dh needed an extra long pit stop and we arrived at the gate around 8:50 am. We found seats and dh now has 25+ minutes to kill while getting us some bottled water before we start boarding.
I would not hesitate to book this early flight again. Our alternatives are having a connecting flight or a 2:00pm flight. which, as I sit here bored at the gate, is almost 5 hours from now.
