Escaping2016 Posted November 8, 2016 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2016 We usually fly into and or stay in Miami but for our next cruise it is much less expensive to fly into Fort Lauderdale. However, this time the flight does not get in until 10:00 PM so we were thinking of just staying of someplace close to the airport so that in the morning we could shuttle back to the airport and get a transfer to the pier. We would also be staying a night post cruise. For the post cruise stay we are looking for someplace that possible has early check in and some things to do with in walking distance (beach, shopping, dining). Does anyone have any suggestions.

ColinIllinois Posted November 8, 2016 #2 Share Posted November 8, 2016 You'll want to check out the Florida departures forum for this. Plenty of information to answer your query. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=495 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smart_alec Posted November 8, 2016 #4 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Hi Escaping, We just did the same exact thing. We also flew in at 10pm the night before to FLL. We ended up staying at Hampton Inn Airport South (the on on 2500 Stirling Road), cost us $90 through Expedia. They have an airport shuttle that will pick you up. Next morning we took Uber to Port of Miami for $27 (plus $5 I tipped the driver). Not sure why more people don't do Uber/Lyft - seems like all suggestions are to take a shared shuttle, which will cost you *more* for riding in a less comfortable shared vehicle.

Unkle Fred Posted November 8, 2016 #5 Share Posted November 8, 2016 Look into Embassy Suites on SE 17 St (?). Short cab ride from FLL. They actually allowed us to check in before 10 AM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
