Transfer from Port Everglades to MIA post cruise?

[Lazy K]

Ending a Canal Cruise at Port Everglades in mid December and need recommendations for reasonably priced transfer from Port Everglades to MIA International. Flight out of MIA is not until 8p. I have searched and can find every transfer combination imaginable except the one I need. Can anybody who has done this fairly recently offer any suggestions? I am a solo traveler. Thank you for any information you can share.

Why not just use the ships transfer? I believe the price is $29.00.

You might even want to consider a shore excursion that includes a transfer to the airport.

This is covered on the Florida Departures board, here:

with shuttle recommendations, Uber/Lyft suggestions, etc. But if the HAL transfer is $29, for a solo, that isn't a bad deal.

Definitely. I doubt you'll get any other option for less considering you are a solo traveller.

I think the HAL transfer to MIA is your best option.

I'll start by suggesting you check with your airline. I think most places airlines only accept checked bags about 3 hours before a flight, but at least in my case (AA to Argentina) they started to accept bags by noon. If that's the case it will make things easier for you.

 

 

I've used 2 types of transfer from Port Everglades to MIA. The direct ($27) transfer will get you to the airport about 10AM. There also are likely a couple of options for a tour of Ft. Lauderdale ending with a transfer to MIA. I was very happy with those. The cost of that will be about $70 and you will get to the airport in the 2PM time frame, still a long time from your flight.

 

 

If your airline does not accept checked bags early, MIA also has a baggage storage room in terminal E (centrally located):

I hope some of those options will be helpful.

Thank you all for your kind and very helpful replies. Sorry that I did not pick up on the fact that there was a Florida board. I think the HAL transfer will work best and I will also look at some tour options since my flight is so late. I do not use Uber or Lyft when I travel alone. I live in Alaska and it is considerably less expensive to get home from MIA when using AS miles to fly.

Doing some sort of post cruise tour through HAL they will keep all bags (checked and carry-on) secure for you throughout the day. While it may be a bit more than the transfer only option it beats the pants off sitting in the Miami airport for hours on end!!!!!!!
