Florida planning
Returning home
A composed final day for the airport, car return, baggage and the journey back to the UK.
Confident before you travel
Finish well.
Leave with time to spare.
The final drive, fuel stop, rental return, baggage and security all deserve a realistic buffer. A carefully placed last night can protect an early or distant departure.
Farr joins this practical detail to the wider journey, so the right answer reflects the route, arrival time, party and stay rather than one isolated rule.
