Rare SandyR5 Posted August 4, 2014 #1 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Hi - Deciding whether to book a flight out of MIA or FLL after our cruise ends in Miami. Can get to FLL by shuttle for $15 per person. Approximately what is the cost of a taxi from the port to MIA? Thanks. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiserBruce Posted August 4, 2014 #2 Share Posted August 4, 2014 As mentioned here, POM-MIA is fixed rate $25. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted August 4, 2014 #3 Share Posted August 4, 2014 sometimes there is a fuel surcharge of $1 the flat rate is per VEHICLE not per person . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted August 4, 2014 #4 Share Posted August 4, 2014 And the ride takes about 15 minutes compared to 40+ to FLL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SandyR5 Posted August 4, 2014 Author #5 Share Posted August 4, 2014 WOW! Thanks for the information. I didn't realize the ride to FLL was so much longer. I thought it was about 20 minutes. Maybe I'll rethink our plans and just fly out of MIA after our cruise. We've been flying into/out of FLL for so many years, this is new. :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted August 4, 2014 #6 Share Posted August 4, 2014 distance to FLL fm POM is 25 miles .... mostly on I-95 .... most map programs will give a travel time around 30 minutes ... this does not include any delays getting out of POM or into FLL. Day of the week and time of the day can be a BIG factor on this drive which I do fairly often as dd lives works near the port and I drive down about once a month . . I AVOID morning and evening commute hours and even then on a weekday there CAN BE issues heading north on 95 ... POM to MIA is 7 miles ... mostly on 395 ...

Rare SandyR5 Posted August 4, 2014 Author #7 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Ok, you sold me. MIA it will be, although it's a Sunday. Why drive that much further? Didn't take much to convince us. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted August 5, 2014 #8 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Try to pick a flight around noon. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare SandyR5 Posted August 5, 2014 Author #9 Share Posted August 5, 2014 Thanks to all of you. Booked our flight, out of MIA and all is good. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hartskys Posted November 15, 2014 #10 Share Posted November 15, 2014 The taxi fare is $25 to airport - what if you have 6 people? Could we all fit in 1 and the rate would still be $25? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted November 15, 2014 #11 Share Posted November 15, 2014 price is per vehicle ... there are vans and SUVs but 6 plus luggage might be difficult. Two taxi for groups of 3 becomes easy and cost $50 for 6 of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stanze5 Posted December 30, 2014 #12 Share Posted December 30, 2014 We have a group of 10. Do they have larger taxis so we can at least divide our group into 2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldenbeacher Posted December 30, 2014 #13 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Is the fixed cost $25 just from the airport, or airport hotels as well? Staying at the Marriott Airport Hotel. Thx! Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Forums Airport to port - from an airport area hotel you will be on the meter, which usually works out to about $25-27 for us when we use a Blue Lagoon area hotel near MIA.

shauncruises Posted August 26, 2015 #15 Share Posted August 26, 2015 Will there be taxis sitting outside the cruise terminal waiting to take passengers to the airport and specifically to FLL? We do the self-disembarking and are usually off the ship and through customs very quickly. I would prefer not to schedule a service. Also, does anyone know about how much it will cost for a taxi from the port to FLL? Thanks for any and all info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted August 26, 2015 #16 Share Posted August 26, 2015 There will be taxis outside the terminal and they can take you to Fort Lauderdale but the cost will run around $75.00 before tip. Actual cost depends on route the driver takes and the total time of the trip. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
