FLL to Port of Miami

[Thomcat1288]

We are sailing on the Carnival Glory out of Miami in May. Flying into FLL the day before and need advice on where to stay and shuttle options to the port.

 

Any and all suggestions appreciated.

If you come over to the Florida Departures board, here:

you will see literally hundreds of discussions on these topics. Stay in Ft Lauderdale and shuttle to the Port of Miami.

I can't help you with a hotel, but for transportation SAS is great!

we are basically doing the same thing, on ncl in two weeks flying into fll and cruising out of miami, this is my research and best results, there is a guy on ebay, platinumfairfield60 is his ebay name, he hooked us up with a 2 bedroom suite on the ocean with full kitchen in a wyndham resort for 195 per night, also if you want car rentals on costco.com travel, you can track the car and if it goes down in price you can rebook at the cheaper rate, ours started at 211.00 for four days and we ended so far with a price of 63.00 for the four days for a mini van,,,,,,, our car in the miami airport is a third of the price as it is in fll, so we are getting on the go train, cost 3.75 per person, taking it to miami airport renting our car there at alamo as when we bring the car back they have a free shuttle to the miami port this saves alot also, and when we come back we are staying a few days also so there is a free shuttle back to alamo at the miami airport, we are renting a car there for 3 days and dropping it back off at the ft lauderdale airport and so far we have that car for 53.00 for all three days through costco,,,,,,,hope this helps, it is a bit of work, but great savings

Hmmm... might want to read the board guidelines. We are not allowed to name or discuss travel agents, nor are we allowed to recommend someone/something we have not actually used...

 

Your post would be a lot easier to read with a little capitalization and punctuation.

I've flown into FLL and cruised out of Miami 4 times before.. here is what I did each time:

 

-take a "Go shuttle" from FLL to miami (was like $21pp)

- stay in a hotel in miami (2 times on miami beach and 2 times on the 'mainland' close to the cruise terminal)

- take a taxi to the port the day of (if uber is available in MIA, it might be cheaper)
