Assuming that the flight is on time and without bad luck, we have...

11:20pm - arrive on stand
11:40pm - arrive at arrivals terminal
11:50pm - outside arrivals terminal and in taxi
11:55pm - at Oryx Rotana
12:10am - in hotel room
12:15am - sleep

6:15am - wake, quick shower, pull on clothes
6:30am - out of the hotel, don't bother checking out with a prepaid rate and incur no extras
6:35am - in premium departures terminal, a full 30 minutes ahead of departure
6:40am - through security and at the gate five minutes before it closes
