johnnydeo Posted February 6, 2023 #1 Share Posted February 6, 2023 i have asked about UBER straight from FLL to Celebrity cruise terminal. With 2 suitcases do I need UBER XL?

tfred Posted February 6, 2023 #3 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I would say so just to be sure. Sometimes a standard Uber is a Toyota Corolla and that would be a problem with 2 people with suitcases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have used Uber XL from FLL when we had three paasengers with one luggage and one carry on each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerunner Posted February 6, 2023 #5 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Ive done it with 2 suitcases but they were carry on size. Easier the first time if unsure get XL, usually not a huge difference and it will be piece of mind. I would not do the uberx as that can be anything from a prius to a camary size. Very variable.

Rare DCPIV Posted February 6, 2023 #6 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Absolutely not (unless you are dealing with the steamer trunks of old). As I mentioned in the other thread, we have had no issues with getting a large (very large) hanging bag and 2 carry-on roller bags in any UberX we've called. The guy with the large jack in the back actually was driving a Corolla. We managed fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one has an off title too. They are bound to get frustated with the answers without clear titles.It also should have been posted to Florida Departures. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Butterfly0822 Posted February 6, 2023 #8 Share Posted February 6, 2023 Took regular Uber last month from FLL to our hotel, then hotel to cruise port. Two people, two giant suitcases, one carry on, and two backpacks. No problem with getting our crap in the average-sized sedan that picked us up.

George C Posted February 6, 2023 #11 Share Posted February 6, 2023 I would think regular should be fine , I get the xl for leg room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lovecruzin Posted February 6, 2023 #12 Share Posted February 6, 2023 FLL? How big are your suitcases? Do you have any carryon? I would do XL just incase you get the random driver that won’t put more than 1 suitcase in the boot of his Prius! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Jim_Iain Posted February 6, 2023 #15 Share Posted February 6, 2023 (edited) With all due respect. Asking the same question in 3 separate threads is going to get the same answer. Yes a Regular Uber will work fine. We normally travel with 2 Large Suitcases and Duffel Bag and a Backpack and never had a problem Edited February 6, 2023 by Jim_Iain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnydeo Posted February 6, 2023 Author #16 Share Posted February 6, 2023 A responder recommended I post under UBER for direct answers to my question from cruisers who have actually done this, so I wouldn't be getting results about Limos, other states,etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In any case the distance from FLL to Port Everglades is small so an Uber XL will only be a few dollars more. I think a standard Uber will be fine but if you are concerned book the XL. I always take an Uber from FLL becuase the taxi fare can climb because of port congestion entereing the port. On the return I always take a taxi becuase they are lined up while the Ubers can't line up, they have to come from outside after you book them. Don't be obsessed with taxi versus Uber at FLL if going to Port Everglades. They are so close that using either is no big deal cost wise.
