From $100 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to Hyatt House Miami Airport in a chauffeured SUV or van.
One number per vehicle covers the full trip one way. Choose by how many people ride and how many bags come along.
On disembarkation morning the driver plans around the ship’s arrival and waits at the curb outside your terminal at PortMiami. Meet-and-greet at the terminal is included; a name-sign welcome is available for an extra $20. Luggage goes straight from the terminal into the vehicle and the ride leaves private and direct.
Hyatt House Miami Airport sits at 5710 Waterford District Dr, right inside the MIA Airport District — the cluster of hotel rows, lakeside office parks, and expressway ramps built around Blue Lagoon. It is the kind of address made for travel days, close to the airport and wired into the roads that fan out across the city. When your driver pulls up to the door, you step straight from the vehicle into the lobby, bags and all.
The district around the hotel runs on movement. NW 36th Street lines up hotels one after another, offices ring the lakes, and the expressways reach in every direction from here. That layout is a gift for anyone arriving off a cruise: your stay is minutes from the terminals, and once you are checked in, the rest of Miami is an easy drive away. Blue Lagoon and the Miami Springs Golf Course are within easy reach, and the Dolphin Expressway sits close by for the next leg of your trip.
What you find on arrival is a spot that keeps things simple after a long day at sea. The block is quiet enough to rest and connected enough to keep going, whether that means an evening flight out of MIA or a night before you head home. Because the ride drops you door to door, there is no second hop, no figuring out local streets with luggage in tow — the vehicle brings your whole group to the entrance and the chauffeur helps the bags to the curb.
Book the ride before you dock, and disembarkation turns into the easy part of the day. Your driver is coordinated by message as you walk off the ship and meets your group at the curb of your ship’s own terminal on Dodge Island. Tell us the cruise line and we stage at the correct terminal, so there is no wandering the pier looking for a car. The chauffeur loads every bag at the terminal curb and the vehicle is reserved for your party alone.
From there it is one direct leg. The route runs along SR-836 straight to Hyatt House Miami Airport, roughly 8 miles, and you should budget 19 to 25 minutes depending on the hour. Weekend mornings are the port’s busiest stretch, with thousands of passengers coming off the ships at once, so the pickup is timed to your actual disembarkation and the traffic is already built into the plan. Fuel, standard tolls, and luggage help all ride inside the flat fare.
The car waits for you, not the other way around. Your group travels together with the luggage in the same vehicle, the fare is known before the ride, and the driver takes the direct route to the destination.
Booking takes a 50% deposit; the other half goes to the driver when the ride is done, by cash or card. There are no seat fees and no add-ons unless you request them.
A child seat can be installed for $15 when you book. Night service, meaning 9 PM to 7 AM, adds $20 to the SUV inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 beyond. Extra stops are metered at $45 per 30 minutes.
Up to five people ride in the SUV; larger parties move to a 6-to-9 or 10-to-14 passenger van so everyone and every bag travels together in one vehicle.
Edits to the booking, like adding a passenger or a seat, are accepted until 12 hours before the ride. Moving the date is not possible after booking.
Reach us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or by phone at 786-682-8748; send the date, passengers and luggage and the reservation is confirmed the same day.
Reserving a few days ahead is ideal, and in peak season (holidays, spring break, big cruise weekends) a week or more keeps your first-choice vehicle available. Requests inside 24 hours are welcome but depend on availability, and those bookings are non-refundable once confirmed.
We run on reservations rather than on-demand pickups. A same-day request may still work if a driver is free: message us on WhatsApp with the pickup time and we will confirm quickly. Keep in mind that a ride booked within 24 hours of pickup cannot be refunded.
No. A 50% deposit holds the vehicle when you book online, and the other half goes to your driver on the day of the ride, in cash or by card. If you prefer to settle everything at once, choose Pay in full at checkout.
Yes. After the deposit, the remaining half is paid directly to your driver when the ride is done, cash or card, whichever you prefer. There is nothing else to pay unless you added an extra service.
Cancellations are free up to 24 hours before the pickup. Inside that 24-hour window the ride is non-refundable, and no-shows are treated the same way. Booking details such as an extra passenger or a child seat can still be updated until 12 hours before pickup.
The pickup time and other details can be adjusted until 12 hours before the ride, subject to driver availability; write to us as soon as your plans change. The travel date itself is fixed once booked, so double-check it before you confirm.
Payments run through Stripe over an encrypted checkout; we never see your card number. Card payments carry a 3% processing fee that is shown before you pay. Zelle is also accepted for the deposit with no fee: ask us on WhatsApp.
Not at all. Travelers reserve from all over the world, international cards are accepted at checkout, and we answer on WhatsApp and email in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
Yes. Give us the flight number when you book and your driver tracks it in real time, so the pickup follows the actual landing rather than the scheduled one, at no extra cost.
Message us the moment you know. We reschedule around the new arrival whenever a driver is available; because that counts as a change to the booking, the cancellation terms above still apply if the ride cannot be rebooked.
Your driver meets you at the MIA arrivals level at the curb, and that meet-and-greet is included in the fare. If you would rather be greeted inside the terminal with a name sign, add the name-sign welcome for $20 when you book.
You receive the meeting instructions in advance, and the driver contacts you the day before the ride to confirm every detail. On landing, head to the agreed curb; connect to the airport Wi-Fi and message us on WhatsApp if anything is unclear.
The day before the ride we send the driver’s name and phone number, and the vehicle details you need to spot the car. Vehicle photos on the site show the category booked; the exact model can vary.
Call or WhatsApp us at +1 (786) 682-8748 and we connect you right away. The pickup is always coordinated at the confirmed spot, and the courtesy waiting time keeps running from your landing or your scheduled pickup.
At the airport we wait up to 60 minutes after landing on domestic flights and up to 2 hours on international arrivals; at hotels, homes and the cruise port the courtesy wait is 15 minutes. Beyond that, waiting is billed like an extra stop, $45 per 30 minutes.
The distance and the usual driving time for this exact route are listed on this page. Real timing depends on traffic and the hour, which is why the driver plans the pickup around your actual landing or ship arrival rather than a fixed clock time.
Yes. Your driver loads and unloads every bag at the curb. Drivers do not go inside the hotel or terminal to collect luggage, so have it with you at the meeting point.
Each passenger can bring one large suitcase plus one carry-on. The black SUV carries up to 5 passengers as long as passengers plus large suitcases total 10 or fewer; larger groups or extra bags move to a van. Surfboards, bikes or many extra cases need a custom setup, so tell us before booking.
Yes. Add them when you book: a child seat for babies and toddlers up to about 3 years, or a booster for ages 3 to 5. Each seat is $20 and is fitted before the driver leaves for the pickup.
Planned stops are fine when you add them at booking, priced at $45 per 30 minutes with a 30-minute minimum, then $1.50 per extra minute. Unplanned detours on the day are not part of the fare.
Never. Every transfer is private: the vehicle carries only your group, door to door, with no other pickups and no waiting for strangers.
A black SUV for up to 5 passengers, a van for 6 to 9 and a larger van for 10 to 14. The fare table on this page shows the price for each. For groups above 14 we arrange several vehicles or a minibus on a custom quote.
No. We pick up and drop off at Miami International Airport, PortMiami and the other cruise terminals, hotels, private homes, offices and event venues across South Florida and beyond.
Yes. Wedding parties, corporate groups and private events get a tailored quote with the right mix of vehicles; message us with the date, head count and schedule.
Between 9 PM and 7 AM the black SUV adds a night fee of $20 inside Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 farther out. The fee is shown in the quote before you book, and daytime rides carry no surcharge.
The fare shown is for the exact route named on this page. For a different pickup or drop-off address, use the ride search on this site: it prices the real road distance instantly and lets you book on the spot.
The fare includes the driver, fuel and tolls, with no hidden fees. Only optional items add to it: the 3% card fee, a name-sign welcome, child seats, extra stops or the night fee, each shown in the quote before you pay. Tipping is at your discretion.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver helped with the whole pile of luggage for the ride to Hyatt House Miami Airport.
Todo salió a tiempo del puerto hasta la puerta de Hyatt House Miami Airport — no se puede pedir más.
My husband and I finished a wonderful cruise and followed it with a private car waiting right at the terminal to take us to Hyatt House Miami Airport — no fuss at the port.
Our family of five came off the ship at PortMiami and the driver loaded every cruise bag for the ride to Hyatt House Miami Airport. The kids napped the whole way, and getting straight to Hyatt House Miami Airport without a scramble at the port was exactly what we needed. For a no-hassle way to get from the ship to Hyatt House Miami Airport, it was well worth it.
Fomos de cruzeiro em grupo e queríamos todos e as malas numa viagem privativa só até Hyatt House Miami Airport depois de desembarcar. Sem brigar com aplicativo — andamos do terminal até um carro que já estava lá. Havia trinta minutos de folga a partir do horário combinado, então nunca precisamos correr para passar a alfândega.
