Amanda/Tom Posted February 9, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 9, 2016 Any recommendations for a transportation company that would pick us up at the Miami Intl Airport, to the NCL port? I have already called Jiffy Jeff for a quote. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

goldwing girl Posted February 10, 2016 #6 Share Posted February 10, 2016 we are using super shuttle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pappion Posted February 10, 2016 #7 Share Posted February 10, 2016 We use UBER in Miami and never have a problem. Have someone give you an Uber referral code and your ride might be $5-10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EyeSeaEwe Posted February 11, 2016 #8 Share Posted February 11, 2016 The LaQuinta airport east has a free shuttle to the port the morning of the cruise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niclan6 Posted February 11, 2016 #9 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Last week we used South Florida Transportation and they were good but we were a large group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don't-use-real-name Posted February 11, 2016 #10 Share Posted February 11, 2016 NCL provides a motor coach transfer from the airport baggage claim areas to the port building that you check-in at. Current transfer rate is - $16.00 pp Pick-up time is sufficient to arrive at the port for check-in at 11:00am May be more than one bus with variable times depending on number of requests. Could not be simpler - the economics are up to you. Flat rate taxi for any number of occupants Shuttle with a rate pp ?? For brute force raw economics stay at a discount hotel with free shuttle airport transfers to and from and use the NCL shuttle. Alternate solution noted above stay at La Quinta and contract for shuttle to the port (free or ?). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted February 11, 2016 #11 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I would go with a taxi or UBER. As mentioned taxi between airport and port is one flat rate and that is per taxi not person and before tip. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irocet Posted February 11, 2016 #12 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We always book the NCL transfer. Super easy and you don't have to sit in the back of a potentially nasty cab. The only downfall is if you are overnighting in Miami, you've got to go to the airport in the morning for the transfer.

TSUmom Posted February 11, 2016 #13 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We have used super shuttle and a taxi in the past. Super shuttle was our choice a few times because we had late (after midnight) flights into Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckeyefrank Posted February 11, 2016 #14 Share Posted February 11, 2016 We use UBER in Miami and never have a problem. Have someone give you an Uber referral code and your ride might be $5-10. Feel free to use my code and get $15 off your first ride. Its MICHAELW16006UE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelkel2 Posted February 11, 2016 #15 Share Posted February 11, 2016 I also recommend UBER. We used it just this past month when we were in Miami and it was a great experience, far better than our experience with the local taxis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda/Tom Posted February 11, 2016 Author #16 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Thanks for the replies. Actually we are flying into Miami the night before our cruise, and traveling with a party of 4, staying in a hotel close to the port, then need transportation from hotel to port, and then returning from the port to the airport, just want a smooth transport, wasnt sure if I needed to do this ahead of time. How do you get in contact with an Uber? I think we would need a van with 4 people and luggage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cb at sea Posted February 12, 2016 #17 Share Posted February 12, 2016 If you're going to POM, then a taxi is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
don't-use-real-name Posted February 12, 2016 #18 Share Posted February 12, 2016 Staying at a Miami Beach hotel contact the hotel Concierge or front desk for information about transportation to the Port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zqvol Posted February 12, 2016 #19 Share Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) Any recommendations for a transportation company that would pick us up at the Miami Intl Airport, to the NCL port? I have already called Jiffy Jeff for a quote. Thanks We normally use car services but this is one place that it is not worth it. You have some unique situations based on your second post. After the cruise definitely take a cab back to the airport. There will be plenty of mini-van cabs available. Pre cruise is where you might have issues because you are asking about two different trips. The first to the hotel and the second to the port. Getting a cab that is large enough from teh airport to the hotel should not be an issue, the cab stand manager will make sure that the cab is large enough to accommodate you. The next morning I would suggest an Uber Black car. To use Uber download the Uber app to your phone and create an account. From that point on you use your phone to request a car and it appears in a few minutes. Uber is a cashless system, and bills the CC (or paypal) that you specify when you create you account. You can give the driver a tip, though they are not supposed to take it. Edited February 12, 2016 by zqvol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you get in contact with an Uber? I think we would need a van with 4 people and luggage Uber is very simple. Download the Uber app onto your phone, enter your credit card number and a promo code. Your first ride will be discounted by $15. The app walks you through selecting a vehicle. With 4 people and luggage you would probably want to request an Uber XL by sliding the car over at the bottom. Will be a little more expensive but is generally an SUV.
