Three private classes cover this route, and whichever you take is booked for your party alone:
Across the 23.4 miles (37.7 km), plan on roughly 36 minutes when the road is clear, edging up to 45 as traffic builds. The bulk of it runs north on the I-95 EXPR before the exit for Fort Lauderdale’s airport-and-cruise-port corridor. Things generally move mid-morning, in the early afternoon, and late in the evening. Where it drags is the weekday morning and late-day commute, when the express lanes pack in and the trip reaches its upper limit. No meter sits in the car, so a slower run never costs a cent more. We build the pickup around your flight and the time of day, which is how the vehicle is at the curb just as you get there. Returning to MIA for a departure? Weigh the same peak-versus-off-peak trade-off when you set the collection time.
At the curb — that is the pickup your fare includes. The driver is stationed outside baggage claim as you emerge from the terminal and takes the bags from you. Prefer to be met inside with a name sign? Request the in-terminal meet-and-greet at booking; it is an optional paid add-on.
From 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM there is no surcharge at all. Trips landing outside that window carry a small add-on, applied by vehicle type as shown below:
Some of the payment happens at booking and the rest on the day, with a handful of methods on offer:
By the vehicle, never the head — your whole party rides for the one flat price of that class. A full SUV of five costs exactly what a single rider does. Only trips outside daytime hours add the small surcharge noted above.
Bundled into that flat fare are the door-to-door private ride, the vehicle set aside for you, and the road’s own running costs — the reason the figure you confirm is the figure you pay.
With tolls, SunPass, and fuel all folded into the price, nothing you pass on the highway lands on your bill. The car stays your party’s for the entire trip, the driver takes the luggage in and out at both ends, and a mobile hotspot keeps onboard WiFi running as you head north.
Only a few situations add a cost, each confirmed at booking and listed below. A name-sign greeting inside the terminal is an optional paid add-on rather than the standard pickup, and child seats after the first bring a fee:
The standard allowance is one checked bag and one carry-on per passenger, with the loading left to the driver. Bringing extra or outsized pieces? A quick WhatsApp before you travel lets us confirm the room or move you to a larger van so it all rides comfortably.
Since the inbound flight is watched live, the collection re-times on its own — an early or late touchdown just moves the meeting, at no added cost. Nothing needs re-booking, and a schedule the airline changed carries no penalty. Clear baggage claim and the car is there.
Nothing is simpler for covering this 23.4-mile stretch toward Fort Lauderdale than a private door-to-door car. Book one vehicle for the whole party, hand us the flight number, and the driver handles the rest. Solo travelers and couples take the Black SUV, seating up to five with bags; six to nine ride the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van; ten to fourteen take the larger Sprinter. Setting up is brief — flight details, pickup date, and passenger count by WhatsApp or email, and written confirmation of the vehicle and flat fare comes back. On the day, the driver meets you at the curb outside baggage claim, loads the luggage, and drives north to the hotel.
Do not read I-95 EXPR as a nickname for the highway. These are their own lanes down the middle of I-95, fenced off from the free ones by barriers and joined at just a few entry and exit points. Kept to a steadier speed than the traffic beside them, they cover the long central portion of these 23.4 miles — which is why the trip feels like one unbroken northbound push rather than a series of merges.
At the terminal doors, not at wheels-down. As a busy international gateway, MIA can put immigration and baggage between your landing and the curb. The meeting is tied to when your party actually walks out, so the 36-to-45-minute drive begins once everyone is loaded, no matter how long the passport hall took.
Something else this route quietly does: it exits Miami-Dade County and ends in Broward. Your booking is unaffected by the line — same vehicle, same driver, the full distance — but it is why the hotel’s address shows Dania Beach instead of Miami.
It does. Many travellers spend the night at Home2 Suites before a sailing, and we run private transfers to or from MIA Airport and Home2 Suites by Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel, along with the onward drop at the cruise port itself. Give us the embarkation date and the group size and we pair it with the right SUV or van.
It all comes back to the car being yours: no one else gets in, and no one else’s destination reshapes your route. Working in English plus Spanish or Portuguese, the driver smooths out arrival questions and directions once you are moving. Your bags are handled for you — in at the airport, out at the hotel. From the first booking message to the pickup, you stay in a direct WhatsApp thread with us, so a change of plan lands with a real person fast instead of a queue. And if your party is over the usual allowance, a single message is all it takes for us to confirm the space or move you to a larger van.
The ride is in a licensed and insured vehicle with a bilingual driver at the wheel — English plus Spanish or Portuguese. Nobody shares your seating and no stranger sits in the next row; the car is yours, and our WhatsApp line stays open from booking through arrival should anything change.
Home2 Suites by Hilton sits within Fort Lauderdale’s airport-and-cruise-port corridor, an extended-stay property made for travelers connecting through the local airport or sailing from the nearby terminals. Its feel is practical and suburban rather than touristy — wide arterial roads, chain dining, and a short hop to the waterfront and the city’s beach districts. The all-suite rooms work equally for families, cruise passengers staying over before embarkation, and longer business trips. You will find the property overview on the official Home2 Suites Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port page, and room types and amenities on the hotel’s location and amenity details. From here the cruise port, the airport, and the wider Fort Lauderdale beachfront and dining scene are all reachable without an inland trek.
You get the tighter, more upscale arrangement — a flat fare, a driver by name, a pickup timed to your flight — for a total well beneath an Uber Black or Lyft Lux.

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.
If you’d rather have a driver holding a name sign inside the terminal, we can set that up for US$ 20.
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.
Relax — we’ll text you the moment your flight touches down. If we don’t hear back soon, the driver heads to the international arrivals hall by default. Wait there and we’ll locate you; nobody gets left behind.
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.
Yes — small pets may come along, provided they stay in a secure carrier. Please give us advance notice.
One child car seat is included free for kids under five. Need another? Request it ahead of time — it costs US$ 15.
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.
