Flymia Posted May 22, 2023 #2 Share Posted May 22, 2023 It is usually better to just get the car from Miami airport. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisesfun65 Posted May 22, 2023 #3 Share Posted May 22, 2023 You need to take an Uber or Lyft to the 2nd street office of Avis/Budget. Taxi drivers will get mad about the short distance. On turn around day, it's a mad house at that location. I'd rather just go to the airport. There is a Sixt office in the Intercontinental hotel and Enterprise at the Doubletree Grand Biscayne Bay If you're staying there, this would be convenient.

Capemayjay Posted May 23, 2023 Author #4 Share Posted May 23, 2023 Thanks everyone. I’ll go to MIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigJoe70 Posted May 24, 2023 #5 Share Posted May 24, 2023 You get charged A LOT more from the airport. They add Govt/Airport taxes and fees that the free-standing rental offices don't. Just a heads up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Downtown location off of 2nd St? About a 5-10 minute ride. MIA airport rental car center? About a 20+ minute ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare nydney1 Posted May 27, 2023 #9 Share Posted May 27, 2023 Ok so I am confused. I thought that I had read the car rental companies stopped the shuttles from Miami Airport to the Port after Covid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you drop off downtown the Avis/Budget location may offer a shuttle to the port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
