transportation to ship

How do you recommend getting from Miami Airport to Carnival Cruise ship for family of 4?

Cab is the simplest and cheapest.

Taxi. No question. It is a flat rate ($24 I think) and you can go as soon as you collect your bags.

 

Carnival charges per person, so you would pay about teice as much for their transfer, and the bus won't leave until it is full, so you could be sitting at the airport on a bus for a while instead of getting on the ship.

Definitely cab ... that way you don't have to wait for a bus to fill. Taxis also seemed to be plentiful when leaving the ship, too.

CAB definitely - plenty at MIA and the flat rate to the port is $24. Make sure to clear with the cabbie that you are going to the port and the fare -- the meter would be a lot more and they aren't supposed to turn it on and most don't even try, but there's always that one.....

 

Have a great cruise.

How much is their transfer? I was under the impression it didn't cost anything except to tip the driver
