19000+ at Port Everglades!

There will be several ships in port when we disembark.  We plan to walk off as early as possible and get a cab to FLL.  Any other advice re pre booking a ride service or ways to get out efficiently, recognizing the airport will also be a zoo.

This is not an issue. I think the record is 50,000 plus people, getting off and on. The port is well organized, and moves pretty well. Walking off and grabbing a cab is about as easy as it can be. No need for other arrangements.

Just be sure to get into an early walk off group.  That way you are in shorter lines at every step and generally will have a line of taxis waiting for you.

Cruiser Bruce is right - that isn't a particularly large number.  According to www.porteverglades.net, a world record of 55,885 passengers (embarking and disembarking) at Port Everglades was set on Sunday March 13, 2016. There were eight cruise ships docked that day.
