car hire drop off Fort lauderdale?

Which car hire companies have drop off offices near the port and offer a shuttle to the cruise please?

That would be Thrifty. You can pick up at the airport and drop near the pier. Very easy and they shuttle you to the ship free.

Make sure you apply mouse savers code 004M001010 when getting your online rate

Personally I wouldn't do thrifty but that is just my opinion.

 

Several rental car companies are housed at the Rental Car Center at Fort Lauderdale Airport (just ten minutes from the port) and they share a complimentary shuttle that takes you from the center after you drop your car off over to the Port. You can also do this in reverse.

 

This link will take you to the listing of these companies.

You can then go to their respective web site to book the car.

While the list says 12 companies located at the airport, only National and Alamo do the free shuttle to Port Everglades from there. The other major brand companies have locations near the port and offer free shuttles. Hertz is in the Crowne Plaza hotel, Thrifty and Dollar are across the street, just outside the port gates on SR 84. Budget is on 17th St next to the Renaissance hotel and Avis is in the Hyatt Pier 66 hotel. Enterprise is also on SR84, a block west of the Crowne Plaza but no idea on shuttles from there, as hardly anyone every mentions them on here.
