[Bakmmo]

1) Are there any rental car places who offer free shuttle from thier location at the airport to the ships?

2)Best way to get from cuise port to FLL airport for an early flight after a cruise with 7 people?

Thrift has a location near the port, not at the airport, that provides free shuttle to the pier. The best way to get to the airport after the cruise is by taxi. There will be regular taxis as well as taxi vans waiting.

Hertz has offered shuttle service to/from the pier in the past. Just to be sure...call the local rental car location for verification.

 

Taxi service is the way to go for getting to the airport from the dock. Cruise transfers are usually way overpriced for the short trip.:)

We are renting a car in Orlando from Thrify and driving it to the airport in FLL. They advised that they have a shuttle from the airport to the cruise docks.

We rented from National after of last cruise (our flight was at 7:30PM) they would pick-up / drop off at ether the pier or airport.

 

I agree that a taxi is the way to go over the cruise line transfer.

Double check please-there are 2 drop off places. My info is that there is no shuttle from the airport, only the off site location.

budget also offers free shuttle service----- the other option is by taxi -- with that many people and luggage you will need at least 2 vans --port is about a 10-12 cab ride
