I can try standing by for an earlier flight...but wouldn't mind staying the 6 hours if I can get some sun/decent food.

I land at 12noon and leave at 6pm. Earlier flight is at 3pm.

No bags here, just doing a quick MR same day turn.

Thanks!
Go on Priceline or Hotwire and rent a car. The beach is about a 15 minute drive to the airport. Trust me, unless your idea of a good time is watching people in stretch pants with screaming children in one of the most dirty airports I've ever been in you don't want to spend a considerable amount of time at FLL. And if you want to connect, there are like two plugs in each Concourse/Terminal.
