Transfers To and From the Airport

There are several ways to get to the cruise port from the airport, and the reverse when we arrive back home. The sheer amount of people traveling between these ports all but guarantees that there are ample options. Taxis and shuttle buses run frequently, and are relatively inexpensive. A typical taxi cab from the Fort Lauderdale Airport to Port Everglades takes about 15 minutes and will cost less than $20.

A Few Cruise Survival Tips
  • Check the balance of your on board account before the end of your cruise. Straighten out any discrepancies immediately and avoid a long line at the Purser's Desk that last morning after your final bill arrives.
  • Make spa and salon appointments as soon as you can so you won't be disappointed; prime appointment times fill up fast!
  • Wrinkles in clothing are caused by under-packing (clothes shift) and over-packing (which squishes clothes). Avoid wrinkles by packing light and tight.
  • Don't miss the morning sun in your inside cabin. Before you retire for the night, leave the television tuned to the channel with the "view from the bridge" and you'll awaken with a "window" on the outside world. Remember to turn the sound off.
  • Notify the cruise line of any special dietary restrictions when booking your cruise and follow up on the arrangements a couple months before embarking.
  • Items confiscated by airport security will not be returned to you. If you're uncertain whether something will pass the security test, pack it in your checked luggage.
