bhook2650 Posted February 6, 2019 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Do many people fly into Ft. Lauderdale airport. If so, how far away is it from the Miami cruise port & how much does it usually cost to get there. Thx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carolina Girl 99 Posted February 6, 2019 #2 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Flights into FLL are often cheaper than Miami, especially if you fly Southwest, so quite a few people do this. It's 27 miles or about 40 minutes depending on traffic. Uber will likely be your cheapest, although shared shuttles are also a cheaper option than a taxi. Expect to pay around $30-45 total for Uber Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeaTheW0rld Posted February 6, 2019 #4 Share Posted February 6, 2019 I'm looking at this, too. I've seen shared shuttle services for $15 each way. Google it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Hlitner Posted February 6, 2019 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Uber is so much better then a shared shuttle. Consider that when you use a shared shuttle you will likely have multiple pick-up points so you will often sit in a van (or mini bus) waiting for others to board. Once at the port your shuttle will likely stop at multiple ships and you may find yourself again waiting while they unload some passengers and dig out their luggage. With Uber or Lyft you will have a private car/driver who will come to your exact location and take you directly to the proper pier. Hank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Epos Man Posted February 6, 2019 #7 Share Posted February 6, 2019 you have to sign up with them and create an account you then go on the app and request the uber from your departure point to your destination and it will give you the options available and the expected cost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midwestman Posted February 7, 2019 #10 Share Posted February 7, 2019 I virtually always fly to FLL for Miami cruises. I prefer to use SAS Transportation for port to airport transfers. Last month, it was $13 if paid in cash per person (although I was travelling with a group of 6 which may have given us a small discount.) It's $15 max if paid in cash with SAS. I've also used QLS (Quality Limousine Service.) Their prices and service are about the same as SAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gmbhardy Posted February 7, 2019 #13 Share Posted February 7, 2019 We also fly Southwest into FLL. We use MJS Transport. $15 per person each way. They pick up at the airport and many Fort Lauderdale hotels. We’ve had some pretty early flights back home and they’ve gotten us to the airport in plenty of time.
