From $600 per vehicle, a private one-way ride from MIA to Merritt Island in a reserved black SUV or van — flat fare, door to door.
The price covers the whole vehicle for your group and holds from booking to arrival, steady through traffic or busy dates. Pick the tier that fits the party:
Your fare includes a curbside meet and greet: the driver keeps an eye on the arriving flight and is already at the terminal exit when you step out with the bags, ready to take the loading off your hands. The evening before journey, a text arrives with the driver’s name, the vehicle description, the plate, and exactly where to head at your terminal. Favor to be met inside the hall with a name sign as you clear the doors? Add the name-sign pickup for $40 at booking.
Out on Florida’s Space Coast, Merritt Island is a broad barrier island in Brevard County, with the Indian River along one flank and the Banana River along the other. The place reads two ways at once — launch-pad country on one hand, peaceful waterfront on the other. Canal homes, marinas, boat ramps and old citrus groves fill the residential stretches. Two very distinct landmarks draw visitors here: the Kennedy Space Center pulls in space travelers, while the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge protects a broad run of marsh and lagoon where manatees, wading herons and the occasional alligator turn up through much of the year. Fishing crews and weekend boaters work the lagoons, and rocket fans plan their trips around launches that can be watched from the causeways. The island keeps an unhurried, waterside pace, whether you are here for a launch, a weekend of fishing, or a permanent move.
The run covers about 198.2 miles — roughly 318.9 kilometers — and takes close to 202 minutes when the roads are open, stretching toward 209 minutes as traffic builds. Nearly all of it happens on open interstate instead of surface roads: the route climbs north on Florida’s Turnpike, then I-95 up the Atlantic side of the state toward Merritt Island, so the timing holds fairly steady day to day. Early mornings and quiet evenings sit near the low end; Miami’s commuter peaks and congestion at the busier interchanges push toward the high end, and weather or a launch-day crowd near the Space Coast can add a little more. Because the fare is fixed, none of that shifts the price — a slow day and a fast one cost the same.

My husband and I booked a private transfer from MIA to Merritt Island so we wouldn’t have to figure out a taxi after our flight. We were in town to see family in Merritt Island, and starting the trip this easy was great. The ride to Merritt Island was quick and smooth, straight there.

Clean car, easy pickup, and a driver who knew exactly how to get to Merritt Island. Would book again. The driver found the address with no trouble, which isn’t always easy in a residential area.
