Good advice.
But the other cool thing to realize about DME is that they are hooked into the airlines' computer systems. As long as your flight NUMBER is the same, DME will know about any changes to your flight times, automatically. They will also know if your arrival flight is delayed. Let's say you are supposed to land at 8:00 p.m. but the flight gets delayed and lands at MCO at 3:00 a.m. ... DME will still be there for you because they'll automatically know that your flight is delayed but you are still on your way and will need a ride!
