wopper81 Posted January 7, 2009 #1 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I have 6 people plus luggage to get from the Ft. Lauderdale airport to the Miami cruise terminal and back a week later. Does anyone have any ideas how to do this easy and cheap? Should we just get 2 cabs or can we get a full sive van? Any ideas? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yearnin4cruisin Posted January 7, 2009 #2 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I highly recommend Airport Express (floridolimo.com). They have a kiosk right outside, or you can book in advance. I think it's still $20 a person for a van. They are fast and efficient. With your group size, I would check the prices for a limo though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcvtmom Posted January 7, 2009 #3 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Our family used TriCounty Transportation, which was located at the FLL terminal. I think we got a van, if I remember correctly! Maybe less than $20 per person... Do a search on the Homeports, Florida Departures. That's where I originally got my information last summer. Sorry for not being more specific. Good luck!

yearnin4cruisin Posted January 7, 2009 #4 Share Posted January 7, 2009 After just looking at the website, TriCounty, Airport Express, and Go Shuttle look to be one-in-the-same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuppycakemom Posted January 7, 2009 #5 Share Posted January 7, 2009 We're using Steve with SAS Transportation (ridesas.com). He comes highly recommended around here! We have a group of almost 20 and he said no problem! $15 per person each way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gill_boo Posted January 7, 2009 #9 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Rent a minivan, it would probably be cheaper than the shuttles, and you can stop at a Walmart on the way or wherever if you forget anything. Drop off is at the airports but quite a few rental companies (Dollar, Thrifty and National for sure) all have free shuttles from the port. Then after disembark, just head out to the curb and a shuttle will pick you back up to go get the minivan to return to FLL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is who we used , it was better then renting a mini-van for a group of 8.........it was prefect .....didn't have to worry about dropping the van off....stopping to fill the van up with gas.....who get to drive:mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Catrin Posted January 7, 2009 #12 Share Posted January 7, 2009 Also booked with SAS transportation. Do you know if they will stop at a Publix, Walmart, etc so we can get soda? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dolphin1313 Posted January 7, 2009 #13 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I've used SAS before when I was going from the Port of Miami to Port Everglades and Steve was great. To give you an example of the type of service he gives....Since I was traveling solo, he had another group of 6 passengers who where from the mid-west. Their flight was leaving FLL at 2:00 and it was somewhere around 9am. They were talking about the beaches near the airport and Steve said that he would be happy to drop them off at a hotel on the beach that he does a lot of pickups from and pick them up at noon to take them to the airport if they wanted. They accepted and he dropped them off and had the hotel hold the bags until he returned to pick them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrsfuzzmo Posted January 7, 2009 #14 Share Posted January 7, 2009 We have round trip shuttle service booked with QLS (Quality Limo Service). It was $14 pp each way, so $28 pp R/T or $56 per couple. We have a private transfer from FLL to our Hotel in Downtown Miami and then a pick up scheduled early for our transfers back to FLL for our 11:30 am flight. The transfer back may or may not be private, it depends on others schedules that they have booked. They will be ready to pick us up at 7:30 am at the port. Very nice and easy to book.
