pristinehart Posted April 13, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Hello. My husband and I recently book a cruise on Carnival departing in May. We're on a budget but don't mind having to spurge a little on the more important stuff. I wanted to get an idea on how much it would cost for us to get from MIA to the port. I did a little research and I've decided that we don't want to book the cruise line shuttle due to so many bad reviews. My other options are to grab a taxi/uber when we get there or possibility look into other shuttle services. Our flight lands around 8am. What would you guys recommend? Thank you in advance.

Rare LHT28 Posted April 13, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 13, 2023 I believe the taxi is a still a flat rate $27 plus tip Or if you use UBER that might work Check the Florida departures https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forum/386-florida-departures/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteerageJoe Posted April 13, 2023 #5 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Assuming you wait for luggage etc, At around 10am UberX range $25 - $28 UberXL range $38-$50 about 30 minutes on the road at that time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sun, sand, cocktail Posted April 23, 2023 #6 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Hi, In March we took our first ever Uber from MIA to Port of Miami around 9:30am and it was $29. plus tip. That was for UberX for 2 adults with 2 carryons. On the return we took a taxi for ease, and that was $50. plus tip (seemed expensive ?) I wish it were still a flat rate but it’s not.

JohninDC Posted April 24, 2023 #8 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Taxi on the same route will be about $30+ on the meter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pristinehart Posted June 6, 2023 Author #9 Share Posted June 6, 2023 Update: For the sake of my sanity that morning, we took the taxi to the port. It was $47 including tips. There was slow heavy traffic due to construction. On the way from the port around 9:30am, we did a quick research and found a price dropped from Uber from $30+ to $22 plus tips so we book that right away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
