A private Black SUV or van from MIA to Key Biscayne, 14.5 miles via I-95 and the Rickenbacker Causeway in about 32 to 36 minutes, one flat fare from $80, both ways.
Pick the vehicle that fits your numbers — every rate below buys a fully private car on this route:
Three private classes cover the MIA–Key Biscayne run; let the passenger count and how much luggage you carry make the call.
By vehicle every time, never by the head. A Black SUV with five aboard costs exactly what it costs with one, and a packed Sprinter splits a single fare across everyone inside. No seat is priced on its own, and luggage adds nothing.
Each passenger’s checked bag and carry-on are in the rate. Bringing extra or outsized pieces? A WhatsApp message before you travel lets us check the room — or shift your party into a larger van so the full load rides together in comfort.
The 14.5 miles are measured to the island itself, so an address toward the southern tip adds the length of Crandon Boulevard — the road that runs the whole way through — onto the trip. It adds nothing to the fare. That figure was set against your destination and your vehicle when you reserved, with no meter ticking behind it.
Count on around 32 minutes off-peak and roughly 36 during it, door to door. Out of the airport the vehicle joins I-95, and the final stretch is the Rickenbacker Causeway, the road that carries traffic onto Key Biscayne. Only a few minutes separate a calm midday departure from a weekday rush-hour one, so even at the worst moment you are on the island well inside an hour of clearing baggage claim. Dawn and late-evening runs sit at the quick end; weekday afternoons hold the slow end. Because our drivers work this corridor daily and know its rhythm, the figure you get describes the road as it truly behaves rather than a flattering best case.
Everything headed for Key Biscayne comes over that one causeway, with no parallel road to slip onto when it bogs down. That shapes how the run is driven: the corridor is checked before the vehicle leaves the airport rather than midway through, and the departure is held or released to suit.
It counts for more on the way out than on the way in. For a flight home the pickup hour is set with that single approach in mind, so a slow patch is soaked up by the plan instead of by your time at the check-in desk.
Not for you. Your driver tracks the inbound aircraft live, so the collection is pinned to when the wheels actually meet the tarmac rather than what the timetable once claimed. Come out of arrivals early, on time, or hours adrift, and the vehicle is there.
Tolls, SunPass charges, and fuel sit inside the price, so nothing is collected en route and no toll bill lands weeks later. A mobile hotspot gives every vehicle onboard WiFi, handy for checking in or telling family you have landed. At bottom, though, the money buys the driver, the vehicle, and full door-to-door service for everyone with you.
Only these three; every other item on this page is already in the price.
Most Key Biscayne arrivals land inside daytime hours and pay nothing on top. Where a collection begins deep in the night or before sunrise, this applies:
In two stages — a deposit to hold the reservation, then the rest settled on your travel day.
Small animals are fine as long as two things happen: send word over WhatsApp in advance, and travel with a carrier. Knowing ahead lets us assign a vehicle with room for that carrier, so your pet reaches the island as comfortably as the rest of the party.
Reserving a private car ahead keeps the journey as simple as possible: one vehicle, one driver, and nothing to connect between the terminal and the island. Land at MIA, gather the bags, and walk out through your terminal’s arrivals doors — the driver is already at the curb, ready to take the luggage and pull away. Nothing to find, no line to join, no directions to puzzle out in your first minutes in the city. The car runs to the exact Key Biscayne address you gave and stops at that door, not a block off. Group size never breaks anyone up: smaller parties take the Black SUV, larger ones a private Sprinter van, so no one is split off or left waiting for a second car.
Yes. Whether you are staying at a resort, a hotel, a condo tower, a holiday rental, or a private home on the island, the vehicle pulls up to its main entrance — a genuine door-to-door service, not a shuttle between set stops. Hand over the property name or the street address at booking and it stops precisely where you want.
A barrier-island village whose pace has little in common with mainland Miami: low-built streets, bicycles and golf carts instead of traffic, families ambling toward the sand. Tidy residential blocks wrap a compact center of restaurants, cafes, and shops, and greenery frames all of it — sizeable public parks, nature trails, and long runs of Atlantic beach. Calm is the pull here: beach in the morning, water sports through the afternoon, easy tables by the shore come evening. For seasonal events and recent openings around the island, the official Key Biscayne neighborhood guide makes a handy companion.
Almost all of it outdoors: swimming and lounging on quiet Atlantic sand, kayaking, paddleboarding, cycling under the tree cover, playing tennis, or squeezing in a round of golf. One end of the island is a state park with a historic lighthouse and the other a large public park, with picnic grounds and walking trails between them.
Arrivals are met at MIA Airport and PortMiami — those are our two pickup points. Outbound trips range much wider: from Key Biscayne we drive to any other airport, port, or city in the region, so your journey home is in no way tied to MIA.
For sure — reserve one of the larger Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans and your whole party travels as one private vehicle, on nobody’s schedule or route but yours. We do not run pooled or shared departures at all. Tell us the headcount when you book and the correctly sized van goes on the job.
Yes. Beyond point-to-point transfers, the same Black SUVs and Sprinter vans are available by the hour as a private chauffeur, on a five-hour minimum. It works well for a day that blends Key Biscayne with mainland errands — the driver stays put with you and you set the schedule.
Everything below began as a real question about MIA–Key Biscayne collections, and each answer holds across every private vehicle in the fleet.
Four promises underpin every reservation on this route. The booking figure is the paying figure, no matter the congestion, the demand, or how long the drive takes. A bilingual driver handles English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which matters in a city that pulls visitors from everywhere. From terminal to front door the vehicle is yours and nobody else’s. And you reach a real person, not a call-center queue — WhatsApp connects you straight through from the booking day to the day you climb out on the island.
Reserve, and the vehicle, the driver, and the route are all settled before your flight has even begun boarding — nothing left to arrange while you stand at a busy airport curb. The comparison below puts the two approaches side by side:
Tighter coordination and a premium vehicle — a flat rate, a named driver, a pickup keyed to your flight — for a total well below Uber Black or Lyft Lux.
| Feature | Us | Uber | Lyft |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pricing | Fixed price locked at booking | Surges 1.5×–4× at peak | Surges 1.5×–4× at peak |
| Vehicle | Black SUV held for your party alone | Whatever car the driver owns | Whatever car the driver owns |
| Airport pickup | Your flight is followed and the driver is at the curb as you walk out | You hail one once you are on the ground | You hail one once you are on the ground |
| Flight tracking | Included — delays re-timed at no charge | Absent — a delay means booking again | Absent — a delay means booking again |
A single reservation, one pickup handled end to end, and a bill noticeably under a surging Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

Four details are all we need — the travel date, your MIA flight number, the party size, and the Key Biscayne address for drop-off — and back comes the vehicle assignment with your confirmation. WhatsApp answers fastest, though email handles round-journey itineraries and corporate bookings just as well. Once it is confirmed, a driver is attached to your name and the collection is fixed, whichever direction you are heading.

We work curbside only. Send us your exit gate and the driver reaches you within a few minutes — quicker than the traditional sign-holding routine.

One day before departure, we’ll message you the driver’s name, the vehicle model, and the license plate, along with full curbside pickup directions.

Domestic flights: up to 60 minutes after arrival
International flights: 120 minutes of complimentary wait time
Hotel pickups: 15-minute grace period
Port pickups: up to 60 minutes after the agreed time
That’s uncommon, because two free hours of wait time are already built in. Should you still be inside the airport past that, the trip may count as a no-show. Extra wait time can be requested at US$ 30 per additional 30-minute block, paid to the driver in cash.
Definitely — our drivers help load and unload your luggage.
Each person may bring one large suitcase plus one carry-on as standard. Traveling with bigger items or extras — additional suitcases, musical instruments, mobility equipment, or strollers? Let us know beforehand so we can prepare; an extra fee may apply.

We ask you not to eat while traveling. The only beverage allowed is water in sealed bottles.
Spur-of-the-moment stops aren’t part of the base fare, but a short, nearby stop arranged ahead of time can be accommodated. A modest fee may apply for the added time.
Certainly. Give us a minimum of 24 hours’ notice and, availability permitting, we’ll shift your pickup time.
The price you’re quoted is the price you pay — no hidden charges. A tip for the driver is entirely optional and always welcome.
Cancel more than 24 hours before your scheduled pickup and you’re refunded in full. Cancellations within 24 hours of the ride can’t be refunded.
Heads-up: refunds have a one-month claim window. Tell us about any issue — a no-show, a service problem — within 30 days of your scheduled ride; after a month the booking is no longer eligible for review or a refund.
