Clarea Posted October 16, 2017 #3 Share Posted October 16, 2017 Taking Royal Caribbean Cruise out of Tampa Port in Jan. We are flying in and out of St Pete/Clearwater airport-PIE..(After cruise) —What’s the best/ cheapest mode of transportation to get from port to PIE airport? Thx! I'd price out a one-way rental car. There are a couple of rental agencies near the port. We use Avis in the Embassy Suites Tampa Downtown and they have a free shuttle to the port.

Tank's Mom Posted October 17, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Uber is probably the cheapest way. There are usually plenty at Channelside, where the port is. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bettseawetsea Posted October 18, 2017 #6 Share Posted October 18, 2017 We may in the same "boat"? We are on the Jan 21-28 RC Rhapsody of the Seas cruise and will need ground transport from/to the St. Petersburg airport on both these dates. If you are on the same cruise, perhaps we can share a cab/Uber/Lyft? Or at least we can post whatever solutions we find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capt_BJ Posted October 18, 2017 #7 Share Posted October 18, 2017 I'm not sure the majority of the responses pick up on the fact that OP is not using TAMPA Airport but rather, PIE over in St Pete. This is a MUCH SMALLER airport with just a few flights a day and accordingly the ground transportation offerings are WAY less than TAMPA International. OP, have you looked at the airport web page and specifically the ground transportation page? http://www.fly2pie.com/ground-transportation/taxis-shuttles. In particular the rental car offerings are slim. Getting from the pier to PIE is not a problem tho, a taxi or UBER will have no problem. UBER fare estimator says X $23, XL $35 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have checked the PIE page and Uber and Lyft, although these estimates probably vary considerably with demand. I was hoping for a local transit connection or something perhaps from RC?
