love to cruz Posted September 12, 2011 #2 Share Posted September 12, 2011 We drive from Dover, which is next to Plant City (just off I-4) and it takes us all of 4 1/2 hours to Miami. Perhaps 4 hours from Lakeland. Of course, that depends on where in Lakeland you live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I live in South Lakeland, So that would be what I am getting from Mapquest But wanted to make sure as I don't usually drive that far to get on a ship. We usually take off out of Port Can or tampa. We will just get a early start just to make sure. Thanks for your fast reply. We are newbies to florida (lakeland area) :o oh another question I have is did you park right at the terminal at Miami or use a parking area outside of the port area?

JohninDC Posted September 12, 2011 #4 Share Posted September 12, 2011 oh another question I have is did you park right at the terminal at Miami or use a parking area outside of the port area? It is about 4 hours form Orlando to Miami, so about 4.5 from Lakeland sounds right. Parking at POM costs $20/day and is convenient, covered and secure. Good luck! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando Vic Posted September 13, 2011 #5 Share Posted September 13, 2011 It is about 4 hours form Orlando to Miami, so about 4.5 from Lakeland sounds right. A more liberal estimate of the driving time from Orlando to Miami via the Turnpike (allowing for one stop) would be 4½+ hours. I'd add another ½ hour from Lakeland.
