Price from MIA to FLL hotels, cruise port?

[39august]

Flights are cheaper into MIA than FLL for us, but what would transportation cost to get from MIA to our FLL hotel and back to MIA from debarking in FLL, please? We have done the opposite FLL to MIA using SAS a couple of times. But their service only originates in FLL area.

I would venture that the cost for transport from MIA would pretty much eat up any savings in your plane fare.  It's 28 miles from Miami to Ft Lauderdale.  If it were me, I'd just pay the extra money to fly to Ft Lauderdale, especially with the horrible traffic between the two cities.

I would budget about $150 RT for the MIA option. Compare that to an FLL flight and don't forget to factor in ground transportation there.

Taxi from MIA to FLL area hotels will run about $75+ on the meter.  Uber/Lyft should be cheaper (and will be a nicer ride), but surge pricing may wipe out your savings.  You can take the Tri-Rial train from MIA to FLL area stations for about $5 each - from there it is a short taxi/Uber/hotel shuttle ride.

Uber will be about $50 each way. Hotels are completely subjective. They can be $100 - $1,000 per night depending on what your needs are. I would just factor the $100 extra for ground transportation.

I agree that Uber/Lyft will run you about $50 each way, and the trip is about 45 minutes with typical, off-rush traffic.

We did a taxi from Miami airport to Fll dock about a hundred, Uber on way back 80
