Taxis at Port Everglades in Ft. Lauderdale?

[gsutter]

We have always used cruiseline provided shuttles to return to the airport after a cruise, but this time our flight doesnt leave until 6pm. How easy is it to just get a cab outside the terminal to go somewhere within Ft. Lauderdale to spend the afternoon???

every terminal we have ever been to...FLL included has always had a line of taxis outside

I just returned from a cruise on Saturday. There were lots of taxis available. In fact, as we were headed to the hotel the driver pointed out the queue line of cabs. My gosh, must have been 50 or more waiting in line. Very easy to catch a cab, just follow the signs to the Taxi area.

Cabs are a dime a dozen so-to-speak. Keep in mind,thousands pass through Port Everglades every weekend. They've got it down to a science. ;)

What's the cost of the taxi ride from the port to FLL?

About $10 for a cab. Cheaper than the cruise lines at about $15/person, faster and less hassle.

gsutter, Another option that I have used is to book a shore excursion through the cruiseline. Last Jan. I did the Everglades airboat ride. They dropped us off at the airport at 2:00pm (I think). That way I didn't have to mess with my luggage or sit around the airport for 6+ hours

Just a thought,
