If we have to leave Punta Gorda at 6 a.m. do we have to be at the airport two hours earlier. That means leaving Naples at 3:00 a.m. right?

For sure you must leave by 3.00am for safety reasons. Don't take the risk beating traffic when you aren't behind the wheel. Act safer and live longer.

nope! We do this run in the morning all the time you'll need to leave Naples 3:45 to 4:00 am. Add 4:00 in the morning it will take no more than 45 to 50 minutes to get to the airport and its long as you're not checking a bag you'll be there and plenty of time.
