They have out soured the shuttle to Avanti shuttle. They do charge, not sure the price. Phone # is 954-655-1376. They are prompt with their service. We use them, better than getting ripped of by the cabs that do not turn on the meter. You can call for how much they charge. Its a short ride, 10 min at most.

SAS will shuttle you from Fort Lauderdale airport, or hotel to Miami port and then back again after your cruise. Not sure if they will shuttle you to and from city to city. I would try calling to confirm. https://www.ridesas.com/

This was for Marie51

We were in Ft Lauderdale 2 days before Ian hit Ft. Myers. we had got off Allure on Sunday and generally stay a day or 2 before flying home. We knew Ian was coming on Friday when on ship. We could not get an earlier flight home, everything was booked solid so we stayed put at Hyatt Place. It rained on and off all day Monday. Tuesday also but as we left for the airport about 3pm rain and wind was spotty. Our fight was 6.00 and as bad luck would have it they did close down the airport for about 3 hours. Huge wave of rain and wind. No planes in or out. We finally got out about 10.00 pm. Lots of people had fled from the west coast to the east coast.

Valutrips.com for Hyatt Place se 10th st, just off of 17 th. st. May- Nov rooms are 109 a night and 119 a night depending on day of the week. We are staying there this coming May 18, 19, 30, 31 for our 10 day Princess cruise. Have used VT many times in the past for great discounts.

Highly doubt anything in April near the port will be $200. May 1st. is when all the rates go down considerably. $119 a night thru V.T. for Hyatt Place, I would check on Trivago.

What hotel are you staying at ????

Too many thing can go wrong, been there done that, this is why we stay an extra day. No worries.

Lago Mar would be my choice.

Thanks again. The wife said we are picking up medallions at the port.

Any idea in Port Everglades for the start of check in process? 1st. time Princess cruiser.

Thank you so much for the information.

Both are very nice and we prefer Hyatt Place. They are the most accomodating, friendly, never had an issue. Plus it is closer to Duffy's, and a few other places we like to eat at. We sign up for a shuttle and come down to meet it about 5-10 min before departure. Never felt cramped staying there.

Hyatt Place has always got us in a room when there is one available. Usually 12-1 at the latest. They will hold your bags and text you when they have one ready. We head over to Duffy's sports bar for lunch and drinks. Duffy's has 2 for 1 drinks all day every day.

LX200GPS, Princess does not make you wait if you come early to the ship??? We are going on Emerald Princess on May 20th. for a 10 day. Our first Princess.

We are going on Icon out of Miami that same weekend. Were wanting to stay in Ft. Lauderdale that same weekend until I seen the prices. We are staying at Yotel downtown Miami near Bayside for $200. Miami is typically higher than Lauderdale, but not this weekend. Have been to Rennasiance but it was many years ago. It was nice.

If I had no luggage then it would be walkable and I would still get transportation. It is very close to the port entrance and is about a block and a half to Duffy's sports bar in the Harbor Shops. 2 for 1 drinks all day every day and the food is pretty dam good. We go there right after getting into our hotel. There are several other restaurants in the Harbor Shops area, or a block or 2 away. Riverside downtown is in a great location also, just a bit farther from airport and port.

Blue Water, Hyatt Place from May 1 thru Sept 30 on Value Trips is either fri- sat 119 or M-T 109 a night plus tax. Oct 1- Dec31, M-T 129 or F-S 149 a night. Rates for 2025 do not come out till very late in the year.

gotcha, not sure how I missed that.

Embassy Suites a few blocks away has long term parking. I want to say like $75 a week.

What cruise line are you refering of????

No way would I even walk to Princess terminal, I know its only about 3-4 blocks from H.I. Wheels on luggage would get destroyed.

We are on Icon this coming October. Save us some food OK, just kidding. Enjoy yours also.

Shuttle to the port is $9 PP sign up night before. 10.11.12.1 Airport to the hotel is Avanti 954-655-1376. Call when you have your luggage and he will be there in 10-12 min. $8 PP I was quoted for 2. Might be less PP for more I am not sure you can call and ask. Do not use a Cab they have gotten really bad at trying to overcharge.
