Help needed getting from Miami airport to Ft Lauderdale

[kentlady]

Hi, we are a family of 5 adults and one child plus luggage and need to get from MIA to the Hilton Marina Ft Lauderdale. We are flying in from the UK so from past experience we realise that actually getting out of the airport can be a very slow process and we have been told that pre booked transport will only wait 45 mins for you. We have used the cruise line transportation previously but ended up waiting almost 2 hours for them to collect us so would really prefer to arrange it ourselves. Any help would be much appreciated.

You have options!

 

1. Book with Larry's Limos; they have great reviews and are used to dealing with airport delays.

2. Use UberXL - Pre-virus the fare would have been about $70+, might be higher now

3. A mini-van taxi (people mover to you) will be about the same fare on the meter as the UberXL

4. After a long flight and with lots of bags I would not recommend it, but the Tri-Rail train to whatever station is closest to your hotel (under $5 each person) is an option

5. Call your hotel to see if they have a trusted transportation option they can recommend.

 

If any of this helps you owe me a pint! Whatever bitter your local pours will be fine! 😎
