miami port to airport?

[Susandt]

trying to plan flight home. If we get off boat around 8 how long does it take to get to airports, not sure if it will be ft lauderdale or miami. does ncl provide a van, at $ of course?

To MIA a taxi is about $25 and takes 15 minutes. FLL is much further and much more expensive. Don't do the NCL transfer - $25 per person..!

[beerman2]

There are many that do the transport from the port to FLL

 

JiffyJeff, SAS, MJS , and a couple of others. 15.00 per person

 

Taxi to Mia is 25-30

 

Taxi to FLL is 70-80

 

Fla Deparure board has a lot of info for this!

 

Good luck!

We just booked an Escape cruise a couple of days ago. NCL added transfers to Miami airport for $16pp.

From POM to MIA is a short trip and inexpensive. You really don't want to have to go between Miami and Ft. Laud....it's about 45 mins-1hr, depending on traffic, and expensive!!! You won't want to do a cab between Miami and Ft. Laud...a shuttle of some kind is better.

 

We routinely do a 10:45 am flight from MIA when Miami is our port.

MIA is logistically the easier. An Uber ride will be $15-20.

Right now flights into ft launder dale are $200 cheaper:(

We always fly into FLL because the flights are usually so much cheaper. We've found shared shuttles for between $12 and $15 pp. We are taking a cruise out of Miami in Sept and flying into FLL saved us over $200 pp:).

How long does it take from port to hotel and do I need to pre book shuttle

[EleventyBangBang]

For some reason my ticket was cheapest flying in to MIA and out of FLL.

 

My plan is to Uber from the port to FLL. It will eat into the amount I saved on the plane ticket but I'll still come out ahead.

Last month we flew into FLL. Got our luggage, went outside, called for a UBER and 10 minutes later we were on our way to the Miami Marriott near bayside. This cost $15 with the drivers $20 discount code. The drive took about 35-40 minutes. Then getting to the cruise port we took a taxi for $12. After the cruise we had $25 per person NCL bus transfers which were great. :D

[Susandt]

What is the discount code and how long is it good for? Thanks everybody for your advice

[riclop]

Plenty of options to take you to the airport and cheaper then there shuttles.

[asubaru]

Expensive? Not my experience....I paid $30.00 from POM to FLL using UBER. Wait time was 2 minutes. That was including tip, but we did extra since he loaded/unloaded our bags.

We used Jiffy Jeff from FLL to port....great all around and 30 bucks for 2. Clean, safe and on time....and I have very high standards. Used cab from Port to MIA (yes we used both airports on our trip) and thought we were going to die....and it was almost 30 bucks for 2 of us and a much shorter ride. Would recommend Jiffy Jeff anyday!

Flights for us into Ft L have always been cheaper. We fly in day before. And fly out day disembark. My experience on last two cruises is that self disembarks are 8-8:45. And no matter when if using cruise line transport you leave port 8:45-9:00 for a 30-45 min ride. Not bad as they can use the express lane. We used GoMJSTransport on way to hotel $15 per person. Extremely clean Mercedes van Very friendly and helpful. They also go to Miami airport. I would definitely use them again. If in a hurry after cruise take private transport, although they probably want a full load too and may depend on who is ride sharing . Ray was our driver . Nice English retired Physicist. Been around the world pleasant to listen to. Has an English accent.
