gram2trips Posted June 30, 2012 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2012 First time flying to cruise....Usually drive....Is cheaper to fly into FL...Would it be better to book hotel in Miami or FL?? Cruising from POM & flying in 1 day prior. Would car service pick us up at airport & take us to Miami hotel?? I don't want to rent a car. Thanks for any help.....

september2010 Posted June 30, 2012 #4 Share Posted June 30, 2012 This is exactly what we want to do. I think it will give us more time to relax. We just need hotel suggestions. I don't know where to search for a hotel. Miami beach? Miami? And what can I expect for a price? We r gong the first week of dec....is that a busy week?

Rare Keith1010 Posted July 1, 2012 #5 Share Posted July 1, 2012 If you arrive late at night I would stay at Fort Lauderdale. If you arrive early it comes down to where you would rather stay. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ooulio Posted July 1, 2012 #6 Share Posted July 1, 2012 I have been researching for the past month. WE are flying into FT Lauderdale. Cruising from Miami. We have checked all the sites. WE finally went ahead and booked Hampton Inn Suites Brickell Miami. WE are going in Feb so it is higher. We are near everything . We finally found a car that will pick us up in Ft Lauderdale and take us to the hotel in Miami without being a shared ride. I don't want to ride around for 2 hours like we did 1 time on the shared one. If you need the ride , I will post again He had good reviews.

jaddld Posted July 1, 2012 #8 Share Posted July 1, 2012 We have QLS booked for next year. They are going to pick us up directly from the Sleep Inn in Dania at 10AM (we are flying in a day earlier) and take us to the POM for $20 PP the day of the cruise - there are only the 2 of us. They are also picking us up from POM and taking us back to FLL after the cruise for $15 pp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaddld Posted July 2, 2012 #11 Share Posted July 2, 2012 jaddid..........where r u flying into?? where is this sleep in?? so much to think about!! is the $20 per person?? We are flying into FLL - staying at the Sleep Inn in Dania nearby. They have a free hotel shuttle that will pick us up from the airport. The QLS shuttle is $20 per person and they are picking us up at 10 AM for transport to POM the next day. SAS starts pickups at 11AM I believe - it was worth the extra $5 per person for the earlier time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
