dtdonaldsn Posted October 1, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 1, 2012 My family and I are traveling on the Carnival Breeze in December and are flying into FLL and plan to rent a car from FLL and drop in Miami. Does anyone have experience with the rental car companies there and know if they will transport us from their facility to the POM? If not, how much is a taxi ride? Thank you!

Anthomaniac Posted October 1, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 1, 2012 taxi from FLL to Miami is pretty pricey, unless you need the rental car, I would just get a transfer from SAS or another vendor - runs about 15 per person... Also driving in the Miami metro area depending on the time and day can be less than vacation-worthy fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kasil Posted October 1, 2012 #3 Share Posted October 1, 2012 of the rental company you're planning to use. I think some provide shuttles from the airport to the port. If you only plan to drive from FLL to POM and not make any side trips, it may be less expensive and definitely less stressful to take a planned shuttle service as mentioned in a previous post. Have a great trip!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the past few years we have used Alamo car rental who them shuttles us to POM. Again this Dec. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladylikes2cruise Posted October 1, 2012 #5 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Thrifty, for sure. That's who we have a rental with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indyrobb Posted October 1, 2012 #6 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Alamo, National, Thrifty and Dollar all have free shuttle service from MIA to the Port. If you make a reservation, just keep checking often as the prices do drop, and sometimes drastically. One day it was 102 dollars for a full size, and the next it was 28 dollars (I hadn't booked yet - that was too pricey). On one of my rentals it dropped 10 dollars, and I called up and they adjusted it within 30 seconds on the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
092306 Posted October 1, 2012 #7 Share Posted October 1, 2012 We used Alamo and it was really easy to get to the port from the car lot drop off. They have shuttle buses that run every 15 min or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsfan Posted October 1, 2012 #8 Share Posted October 1, 2012 Dollar and Hertz have Downtown offices that you can drop off to and they will shuttle you for Free to POM... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jenale80 Posted October 1, 2012 #9 Share Posted October 1, 2012 We are doing the same thing with our cruise in March. We booked with Alamo, I called the airport location and did verify the shuttle service to POM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtdonaldsn Posted October 2, 2012 Author #10 Share Posted October 2, 2012 Thank you all for the comments! I currently have a reservation with Budget (which will NOT shuttle to POM) but will check the other company's rates! We definitely want a car as we're flying in a day early but plan to use a shuttle service back to FLL upon return. Thanks again and happy cruising :)!
