farjar Posted November 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted November 16, 2022 Anyone know the cost of a cab or an Uber from the Tampa cruise terminal to the Tampa airport? It seems Uber prices can vary depending on the time of day or demand. I also read there are shuttle buses waiting at debarkation that don't require reservations and run about $15 pp. Has anyone done that? Thank you.

Ashland Posted November 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted November 16, 2022 We did a shuttle from Tampa cruise port to TPA last month (Oct) and it was $10.00 pp. They are standing right outside luggage claim (but we did self assist) with large signs and the shuttles were sitting just a few steps away. Couldn't have easier and quicker as the shuttle filled up fast and we were on our way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohninDC Posted November 17, 2022 #3 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Taxi should be about $25+. Uber or Lyft may be cheaper by a few dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes...we saw many Taxis lined up as we were going to do this...but the shuttle ended up a great option for us instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WMassCruisers Posted December 22, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 22, 2022 Did the shuttle have to be booked in advance or can the ride by purchased when you get there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just have $10/pp cash ready when you exit the terminal. No reservations necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually once everyone and their luggage is loaded on the driver drives just out of the terminal lot and stops to collect your $10.00pp cash..at least this is how it was done this past October. And yes, no reservations needed or I believe available. Just walk out and hop on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Nov., the guy took my money in the port parking lot after he put my luggage in the van. In any event, the traveler will need $10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did your driver just make one stop at TPA ours did and everyone exited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got off at the first stop, but I am pretty sure people remained on for a second stop. And yes, $10 is a great deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know whether the driver would drop me off at the long-term parking lot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sasset Posted September 14, 2023 #13 Share Posted September 14, 2023 Anyone disembarked in Tampa recently? Last November shuttles, taxis and hired cars had a rough time getting in to the pickup area. The large busses that were Celebrity airport shuttle blocked a lot of access to where passengers waiting for hired car pick would wait. This was our first time here. It looked a one lane in one lane out situation. Not wide open as Miami and Fort Lauderdale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
