Getting to MIA

[ethel813]

Can I make an 11 am flight from the port of Miami?

With self debarkation you should be able to.

As long as the ship arrives to port on time and you are doing self debarkation, no sweat.

Be sure to grab a cab & not order a rideshare...you never know if it will be 20 min or 45 min in MIA.

Helps if you have TSA pre-check as well. We had a flight at 10 last month and did self-disembark of Icon.  We were at the airport by 6:30 and sitting at the gate by 7:30.

What transportation did you use and price?

Since we were literally one of the first 20 people off the ship, we just got in the taxi line. I think it was around $40-$45. It was definitely more than I thought it would be for 3 people at that time of day with no traffic.

Yes...That was a pricey ride. We opted for the shuttles that were out front of the POM terminal door. It was $10.00pp. It filled up quickly and we were at MIA in plenty of time for our 11:00am flight.

Do you have to reserve the shuttles outside? Are they NCL shuttles? We have a 12pm flight and we are trying to find the best option. We have a pretty big group....12 people.

No... This is a private company. You just exit the terminal doors and they will have big signs you can't miss them and will direct you to one of their many shuttles. They will be happy to accommodate your group of 12. Perhaps all of you might fit or no concern to use two of them.....which is more likely with luggage. Have cash. This is such an easy option don't be concerned at all. We've actually done this twice and will do it again next March.
