car rental at ft lauderdale cruise port

[frankhi]

What's the easiest way to get a rental car when you get off a ship in ft lauderdale? Thanks

Avis - they pick up every 15 minutes in the port and take you to the Avis location (approx 10 minute drive). We have done it. Very easy.

Made the reservation, Thanks

Just go to the airport and pick up a car there.  Wider selection than just the Avis shuttle, IMO.

Only pproble we have encounterd with the Avis shuttle to the port location is lack of cars early in the day.  They turn around the cars being dropped off by those departing on cruises that day.  We have had better luck with airport rentals as they are ready to go when you get there.

I made an FLL reservation too...Thanks

"encounterd with the Avis shuttle to the port location is lack of cars early in the day."   was that multiple times or just once?

We have never had a problem with availability. We book a full size and always get that. Admittedly we have no reason to get off the ship at the crack of dawn and we take the last disembarkation time. We need the car to drive across the State to our home in Sarasota after a stop in Palm Beach for lunch with friends.
