screenname2004 Posted April 11, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 11, 2023 We rented from Thrifty before and their car lot is by FLL. Are there other rental companies that are closer to the port? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FOPMan Posted April 11, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Port Everglades and the Fort Lauderdale Hollywood International airport are pretty much adjacent to each other. If you happened to be at a berth in the northern part of Port Everglades, there is a ZIPcar location nearby, but that is probably just a few feet (<1000), if that, than other choices.

CaliforniaAC Posted April 13, 2023 #4 Share Posted April 13, 2023 We tried that when we left for the cruise we're on now. DO NOT USE EASY RENT car rental. The advertise taking you to the terminal. Don't fall for it. Start to finish it was a horrible experience. Save yourself and book with someone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

screenname2004 Posted April 14, 2023 Author #8 Share Posted April 14, 2023 EV3 works for Budget. For Hertz, even though Port Everglades is an option as drop off location, it will change to Ft. Lauderdale Airpot (600 Terminal Drive, Fort Lauderdale, Fl) when prices are shown. A few years back, I thought they had a drop off location closer to the port.

I stopped using Hertz after COVID when all those crazy stories were posted about accusing renters of stealing cars, etc. So I am not yet familiar with the new office next to AVIS they were trying to open a few months ago. And I do not know about shuttle services. But try this as a destination - Fort Lauderdale - Port Everglades HLE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, it switched back to FLL airport after I selected the car type. I will likely go with Hertz because with the AAA discount, the total will be less than Budget even if I have to pay for a Uber ride from the airport to Port Everglades.
