From $175 per vehicle: a private, one-way ride from Port of Miami to AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale 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.
Disembarkation at Port of Miami is easier with a driver already outside the terminal. The greeting at the curb is part of the price, a name-sign pickup adds $20, and the vehicle is yours alone from the port to the destination, luggage included.
AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport sits at 154 Meridian Drive in Dania Beach, right where Hallandale and Dania Beach meet along the county line. It is a modern hotel built for travelers moving between the water and the highway, with a calm, uncluttered feel once you step through the doors. When your ride pulls up, the driver brings you to the main entrance, so you finish the trip at the lobby rather than a parking lot or a curb far from the door.
The setting puts a good slice of South Florida within easy reach. Gulfstream Park is close by, pairing live racing with shopping under one roof, and Dania Pointe adds a run of outlet stores when you feel like browsing. For a quieter afternoon, the old-Florida fishing pier at Dania Beach gives you a stretch of ocean air and a place to watch the boats come in. Design lovers have the Design Center of the Americas, known as DCOTA, a short hop away in the same Hallandale and Dania Beach area.
That mix is what makes this corner easy to settle into after a cruise. You are near the beach without being on top of the crowds, close to the outlets and the track when you want something to do, and still an easy drive from the wider region. The hotel handles anything about the stay itself; our part is getting you and your bags there in one clean, private leg, so you arrive ready to check in and start your time in Dania Beach.
The trip is one private, door-to-door leg from your ship to the hotel entrance. After you clear the terminal on Dodge Island, your driver is coordinated by message and meets your group right at the curb, not in a distant lot. Every bag is loaded there at the pier, so you walk out, find the vehicle waiting, and step aboard without dragging luggage across the sidewalk.
Because ships rarely release everyone at the same minute, the pickup is planned around your arrival, and an included thirty-minute wait covers customs and the luggage hall. The route runs up I-95 as a single, direct leg, with your bags staying in the vehicle the whole way. When you reach AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport, look for your driver at the main entrance, and the ride ends steps from the front desk.
A reserved driver removes the guesswork after a long flight or a cruise morning: no queue at a taxi stand, no surge pricing, no shared stops. The group rides together and the price on this page is the price you pay.
A 50% deposit reserves the ride online; the balance is paid to the driver on the day, cash or card. The fare is one way and per vehicle, so what you see above is the full price for the trip.
The regular window is 7 AM to 9 PM; night pickups in the SUV add $20 in Miami-Dade and Broward and $50 elsewhere. A child seat is $15 on request, and any added stop is $45 per 30 minutes.
Count passengers and bags and the vehicle follows: the SUV for up to 5 with luggage, the vans for 6-9 or 10-14. There is no splitting a group across cars.
Up to 12 hours before pickup you can change passengers, luggage or extras. Dates are locked at booking and do not move.
Message us on WhatsApp at wa.me/17866828748 or call 786-682-8748 with your date, passenger count and luggage, and we confirm the vehicle and the pickup details.
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 group came off the ship together and booked one private van from the cruise terminal to AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport. Honestly the smoothest part of the whole trip — the port end was completely handled. We knew the plan before the ship even docked, so there was no guessing at the port.
Bajamos del barco cansados pero contentos y un conductor ya esperando para llevarnos a AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport fue justo lo indicado. Para llegar del barco a AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport de forma confiable, valió cada minuto. Reservar fue fácil, recibimos todo por escrito, y todo coincidió con lo prometido. Muy recomendable.
I didn’t want to gamble on a ride the morning I disembarked, so I booked a private car from the terminal to AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport. I knew the plan before the ship even docked, so there was no guessing at the port. Booking was simple, I got everything in writing, and everything went exactly as planned.
The group of us walked off at once and it was so easy to have one private van ready at the curb for the ride to AC Hotel Fort Lauderdale Airport — everyone in one vehicle. There was a courtesy waiting window from the agreed time, so we never had to rush through customs. The driver loaded all our cruise luggage so we didn’t have to struggle with anything. Would book again for the next cruise.
Clean car, easy pickup, and a driver who knew exactly where to go. Would book again. No app to fight with — we just walked from the terminal to a car that was already there.
