Air space over Palm Beach is restricted starting at 10:30 AM

Of course, Trump will probably talk for 2 hours. I think Obama talked for 10 minutes

He won't want to risk the humiliation of landing in exile on Joe Blow -1.

The event is scheduled for 8 a.m. Eastern time at Joint Base Andrews just outside the nation’s capital, where the outgoing president will make his departure aboard Air Force One for Florida. Invitations have been circulated to supporters, including former administration officials and other backers, asking them to arrive by 7:15 a.m.

Going away party begins at 8.

Reporters for Palm Beach were told arrival at 11, but flight restrictions there don't start until 11:30.

Flight time 2 -2-1/2 hours.

With all this conflicting data, i think he will depart Andrews between 10 and 12.

Edit to add: I rechecked the Flight Restrictions and they do start at 11:30 local
