Help about launch time, February 24 Falcon 9 • Starlink 6-39

[James Lu]

Hi all, , I will need some help about tomorrow's launch - February 24 Falcon 9 • Starlink 6-39.
We are from Canada and our tickets leaving Florida is 9pm, Feb 24. MCO airport recommended arriving 3 hours before departure which means 6pm at the airport. The rocket launch schedule says Approx. 4:59-9:30 p.m. EST.
How good is the chance that we can watch the launch at Cocoa beach and make it to the airport by 6pm? Google map shows 50 mins if no traffic.
I know there is no way to know for sure, but how likely the launch will happen before 5:10pm tomorrow?
Thanks in advance!

It’s an hour drive to the airport from cocoa beach and this time of year MCO is stupid crazy. If the weather is good when the launch window opens, there’s a high probability that you’ll get to see the launch. Lately just about all launches have gone off at the opening of window. Good luck!
