Ended up taking an Uber but massive traffic jam at the cruise ship terminal as all the passengers were getting picked up. I think our driver sat in traffic 30 minutes before pulling up to the curb to pick us up. But then it was smooth sailing all the way to FLL Was about $50 USD

Do you have the name of the shuttle service you used? Just wondering how easy it would be to find your shuttle once you leave the cruise ship terminal.

Thanks everyone -- ended up with a 1pm flight from FLL so should be plenty of time to get there from Miami. Any suggestions for shuttle service to FLL or should I just take an uber?

For us, FLL offers later departure times, more direct flight options and much less expensive than MIA. Guess it depends on the destination. However, we are flying into Miami before the cruise as there were better departure times, more direct flight options and less expensive. I can't figure out the airline industry!

Our ship arrives on Sat Aug 26 @ 6am in Miami and I'm hoping to book flights out of the Fort Lauderdale airport. Assuming we can get off the ship before 9am, would it be advisable to book a flight departing 1130am or noon? We are TSA pre-approved so a shorter line I expect. Also less traffic on a Saturday morning vs during the week? Anyone have experience or insight? We would likely take an uber from the Miami port to the Ft Lauderdale airport. Thanks in advance!
