Amazon Pantry over Thanksgiving/Black Friday/Cyber Monday

So I am probably over thinking and over planning this but - we check in to AKV Kidani on December 2 and I plan on shipping a box from home as well as ordering an Amazon Pantry box. From the posts here, it looks like Amazon Pantry shipping takes 5 business days. I was thinking about ordering Monday, November 23rd until I realized my shipping will be over the whole Thanksgiving/Black Friday/Cyber Monday weekend.

For those of you who have used Amazon Pantry, would ordering on Wednesday November 18th give me enough time? If it takes 3 business days to assemble the order and 5 business days to ship it, it would arrive the day before we do. I am wondering if the shipping will take longer due to the holiday weekend.
 
I wish I had a better answer, I have used Prime Pantry 2 times and and currently watching a shipment heading to Saratoga Springs. The first 2, I ordered on Sunday, the order did not ship until Monday and arrived on Thursday. ( coming from Sharonville OH). This shipment, I ordered on Friday, it shipped on Sunday and right now, it shows arrival for Thursday- we check in on Sunday. All came from the same distribution center, so I don't know why a Sunday/ Monday shipment would arrive on Thursday and the Friday shipment would arrive on Thursday. This does follow the 5 working day shipment, so I would think you can't count the holidays as business days. I think resorts will hold a shipment for a bit, especially around the holidays. I love being able to order items that you cant get at the Resorts. We plan on supplementing our Prime Pantry order with dairy and fresh fruit from the resort store.
