Private shuttle or taxi from port everglades to FLL?

[zumbalover]

We have an early flight on March 29 (11:30) and there are 7 ships in port that day including the Allure of the Seas. I have read on here that it is easy to take a taxi to Fort Lauderdale airport, but with 7 ships in port will they be plentiful? Are we better booking a guaranteed ride with GO shuttles (there are 4 adults) or will there be enough taxis? With an early international flight we want to make sure we get to the airport on time!

Lots of cabs and you have lots of time -- from PE to FLL is only a 10+minute cab ride depending upon traffic (and should cost about $15 on the meter). You will likely be off your ship NLT 9:00 and at FLL before 9:30.

Lots and lots of taxis. And you are good on time. Given you have an international flight, I would do what it takes on the cruise line you are using to be off the ship as early as possible.
