MissConduct Posted October 27, 2005 #1 Share Posted October 27, 2005 Am I going to be able to get a cab this Saturday 10/29 from FLL airport to Port Everglades??? I see the long gas lines on tv...and wonder if the taxis are able to get fuel? How far a drive is it??? If no cabs available, any recommendations on a private service? Will just be the 2 of us....don't want to pay for a stretch limo! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmJakeBubbie Posted October 27, 2005 #2 Share Posted October 27, 2005 if you used a TA, call the TA and ask about "adding the bus transfer from the airport to the pier" - if you did the booking yourself, call the cruiseline and ask them about the bus transfer. it's not a far trip - taxi or bus are affordable....bus w/the cruiseline is probably the most reliable for now, but good luck getting in touch w/the cruiseline, etc. as everyone is on overload w/WILMA-related issues....g'luck!

K&RCurt Posted October 27, 2005 #3 Share Posted October 27, 2005 How far a drive is it??? 10 min. MAX. You could throw a rock from the airport fence over the port fence. Obviously taking the roads is a little longer. I highly doubt you will have trouble finding a cab to the port. The major reason for the long lines at the gas stations is lack of electricity. If the area around the airport and port facilities has electricity restored, the gas stations should also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentS Posted October 28, 2005 #5 Share Posted October 28, 2005 Taxis and shuttles vans are all operating. You do not want to book a transfer from FLL to Port Everglades, the airport and port are adjacent - 5-10 minutes from terminal to terminal. There will be no problem getting a taxi. Power is slowly coming back across the area, and FPL has made gas stations a priority - More are opening every day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kmbierworth Posted October 29, 2005 #7 Share Posted October 29, 2005 Thanks for the reassurance. We are going down on 11/3 and I was wondering the exact same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
