2daShip Posted November 17, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 17, 2017 We are cruising on the Enchantment of the Sea 11/20-11/24 from Miami. On 11/24 our flight is at 10:20a.m. from Ft Lauderdale airport. There are 5 of us traveling together. I know RCCL does not recommend such an early departure time but this was one of the only options with Southwest to get us home early on Friday. We are trying to determine the quickest way to get to the FLL airport post-cruise. Has anyone had experience getting to FLL airport this early after a cruise? Did you rent a private car service? What was the cost? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
easyboy Posted November 17, 2017 #2 Share Posted November 17, 2017 You can take an Uber but you can also post on the Florida Departures Board for suggestions from those who may have actually been in your situation.

Krazy Kruizers Posted November 17, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 17, 2017 The only thing you have in your favor is that there is only 1 ship in Ft Lauderdale on the 24th that I know of. Thus the airport should not be as hectic when there are 3 or 4 ships in. I hope you make your flight. In the future -- never book a flight that early.

Rare Keith1010 Posted November 17, 2017 #4 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Quickest way is to have a vehicle waiting for you and with five people that is what I would do. One option is to contact Larry's Limo to have a large vehicle waiting for you. http://www.larryslimo.com I like Uber but you might wait for awhile. You just never know.

Bonnie J. Posted November 17, 2017 #5 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Your 10:20 flight time is VERY early for Fll! It is very early even for a flight out of Miami. They say 11 is earliest to book a flight from the port airport. We have been late getting into our home port more than once, you never know, can't count on getting off on posted time. Good luck getting your flight! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted November 17, 2017 #6 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Helicopter may be your best hope of making it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leaveitallbehind Posted November 17, 2017 #7 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Uber. You can reserve a pick up time in advance from the port to FLL which is about 45 minutes away. Did this in July from POM to FLL for an early flight and was there with time to spare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
