I've searched online and it looks as though Tri-Rail serves both the airport and downtown Miami, and Brightline runs from downtown Miami, but I'm not clear on how easy this is in real life, particularly on a weekend. I have a connection between MIA and Brightline tomorrow and would appreciate any insights as to how to make the trip between MIA and Brightline, and how easy it is in real life to use transit.

Thanks.
Simply take the Miami Metro Rail from MIA airport. Follow the signs to Rental Cars and transportation hub (Tri-Rail, Miami Metro Rail and Metro Bus). Take the Metro Rail to the Overton/Lyric Theatre stop and walk downstairs to the Brightline. Fare is $2.25 payable by Metro Card you can get at the kiosk. Word of warning the machines aren't very good at taking credit and debit cards so have a little cash on you.
