Port of Miami to MIA

[carbon]

I am considering which return flight 11:30 or 3:30 on a Saturday in August. Which works better?

Usually a flight at 11:30 would make it. The port is only a 20 minute ride at best.

You should have absolutely no trouble making a 11:30AM flight. If your in no rush getting off of the ship the later flight would be fine with me too.

For the 1130 flight you need to be at MIA by about 10:00 (9:30 is better with the typical TSA chaos).  With the cab ride to MIA taking about 20 min, that translates into off the ship, with bags, and clear of customs/immigration by about 9:00 - should not be an issue.

We have an 11:20 am flight out of MIA on February 20th, 2022.  We will be on the Oasis - are there plenty of ride share and/or taxis waiting to take passengers to the airport on Sunday mornings?  Thank you!

Yes - always a line of taxis waiting.  Those drivers know where the money is! 😎

Can anyone comment on the cost for a taxi from Miami Airport to Miami cruise port?

Should be a flat rate fare -ignore the meter - of $28+tip.  The current fare (in case it has changed) will be posted on a placard inside of the taxi.  Same fare will get you from the MIA airport to POM.

As long as you are okay with being an organized early riser, you should have no problem making an 11:30 flight, barring some VERY rare circumstance.

Would I tell a troupe of 15 year olds to catch an 11:30 disembarkation day flight? Nope. A responsible adult? Yes.

This was the rate a few weeks ago. So if it hasn't been built back better yet it should be accurate.
