We're staying in MIA or FLL a couple days before the cruise. We chose no Transfers to/from ship? Also we fly out of MIA the day after cruise ends.

When we drop off Rental car in FLL, what is the best way for 4 people to get to cruise area...?

What is the best plan to get back to MIA after crusie is over??

We're not worried, but thought we'd let experience be our guide.... thanks in advance!

Cab is the only way that I know to get from FLL to the ships. The Thrifty office is only about 2 miles from the Pier, and they picked up from the ship once. I saw all other major car rental companies picking up people from the ship too,

Grabbing a cab or two depending on the amount of luggage is probably the easiest, but a full set of ground tranportatin options and rates is available over at
