The FLL airport has ground transport available - you can go to the airport website and click on transportation. Everything from city buses to limos comes up. We are taking a private (Tri-County Transport) car for $60 to our hotel in Miami. I think you can do shared van rides with them to Miami for about $20.

Is that per person or per car?

I believe he is saying per person.

Carnival has buses that go from FLL to port of Miami, leave every hour or so on day of cruise for 32.00pp

There is a train from FLL airport to MIA airport. It cost $4.00 per person. There is a mini bus that takes you from the airport to train station. (free shuttle) and a (free shuttle) pick up to take you to the airport in Miami. Tri County railways. http://www.tri-rail.com/We flew into FLL in August and it saved us almost $100.00 in airfare per person instead of going to miami

Picked up the car at FLL and dropped it off at the Sheraton Biscayne Bay....I think it cost about $40. Then we took a cab to the port which was another $10 or so.

Hi Joan,

We just flew from Syracuse to FLL on 1/12. We spent the night in Miami and could see the ship from our room. We used the airport shuttle which is down near the baggage claim. The FLL airport is a similiar size to Syracuse and not hard to find your way around. We used Carnival transfers getting back to the airport.We booked the South Beach tour that took us to FLL airport after our tour. Have fun!

I explored taking trirail to Miami, which would be the cheapest, but do you really want to lug suitcases on and off the train? My answer, for my March cruise, is rent a car in FLL (I did Budget) return it in downtown Miami. (Budget has a return at the Sheraton Brickell sp?, about a mile or so from the terminal). We're spending the night at the Hyatt, which is about .1 mile from the Sheraton.

We rented a car at Alamo in Ft. Lauderdale, spent the night in Hollywood, dropped the car off at the Miami airport and took the Alamo shuttle to the Port of Miami. Did the reverse on our way back. Cost was around $40.00
