Thanks so much for your response. This will be my 4th solo trip I am visiting for the half marathon which will be my first Disney run. I think when it comes down to it I hate being rushed and the fact that the earlier flight means I would have to be up at the crack of dawn and more than likely Saturday night I would have to be back early I think it's easier to get a later flight. How many solo trips have you done?I travel solo often. Is the $80 worth it to you? Will you add an extra day to your tickets? If you're taking DME you'll leave the resort around 2:30 so you don't get a full day in the park. Might not be an issue. On my Sept 2017 trip I had a 6:30PM flight out and spent departure day in Disney Springs and taking buses to different resorts. Made a whole day out of it. But the later flight was less expensive for me than the early flight so rather than take the more expensive flight I chose to save money. I also fly across country so I like getting into Los Angeles late - much less traffic heading home.
Is this a first solo trip for you?
Sounds like the later flight is well worth it for you.Thanks so much for your response. This will be my 4th solo trip I am visiting for the half marathon which will be my first Disney run.

We take the latest flight always, no matter the cost difference. I want the full day. We check out, take bags to RAC and head to Epcot for our last day. It's our tradition
Same in my house except we fly out of MCO at 9:30 PM, get in to Atlanta at 11:00 PM and, after a 2 hour drive, home at 1:00 AM. But that means we get to stay at Disney till 7:00 PM or so. Practically a full dayI opt for the latest flight so I can can remain in the bubble as long as possible. The man hates getting in at 10:00 PM but but that's what happens when you leave me to do all the planning hehehe.
we have 7:30 p.m. flight, can you request a late checkout and what is the latest you can check out?
So if we have to leave for the airport for a 7:30 flight around 3:30 a 1:00 p.m. would be great if I could get it.1:00PM - 0$
3:00PM - 50% of nightly rack rate
After 3:00PM - 100% of nightly rack rate
Above is dependent on occupancy. You can request late checkout but you might not be able to.
