Philadelphia port disembarking

I am thinking about a last minute deal on the Horizon, but would only be able to get a flight that leaves at 11:15 the day we return. I called celebrity and they said the port is 7 miles from the airport, so about 15 minutes, does anyone have previous experience with the time it takes to get off of this ship? I know I can ask for the earliest debarkation, but I don't know if this ship has had any problems with customs not allowing them to disembark in the past. thanks for any help anyone can give me.

You can't be sure any more about getting off ships early. Granted, the airport is only about 15-20 minutes from the Navy Yard ... but don't forget the long lines at the airport. Even if you are off early you may get delayed at the airport. I suggest you book a later flight.

Don't forget, the ship could be late arriving for any number of reasons (weather, mechanical problems, medical emergency ...). If 11:15pm is your only option, I would suggest either insurance or refundable tickets (which cost more than insurance, but then you get to fly first class).
