Should I take this flight?

I have an interview at UNECOM coming up, and in my email, it said I don't have to be there until 12:15, and my interview will be scheduled between 1 and 4. I'm thinking instead of staying overnight, I can get on a flight that gets me in to Portland at 10:35 am, and then get on a return flight at 7:40 pm. Do you think I'll be ok flying in that same morning? I'm just nervous because what might happen if the flight is delayed. At the same time, I'm spending so much money, I don't want to pay for a hotel if I don't have to. Then again, on the other hand, I've spent so much money on this whole process, what's an extra $60 for a hotel? Thoughts? What would you guys do?

BTW, the flight is a short flight for me, it's only about an hour and a half, a little less actually. So I'm not worried about being jet lagged or anything.

From the Portalnd airport it'll take about 30-40 min. to get there. With the winer weather coming, is there an earlier flight?

well, the interview at unecom is really laid back and whatnot, but there is always the chance that the flight could be delayed. also, depending on if you are renting car or taking a taxi, a taxi ride is pretty damn expensive. its about 20 minutes out of portland. i would recommend staying at the holiday inn express in saco, if you choose to stay, since it is free shuttle to and from the airport and school

scratch that, i meant to say about 30-40. saco is 20 minutes away
