The afternoon arrival time you are suggesting has most of the European International Arrivals coming in concurrently BA, IB, AF, LH (J) as well as the early arrivals of AA from South/Central America. We have many customers that arrive with reservations and it's usually a 90 minute transit time through ICE before we see them after arrival.



GoShuttle is the contracted Shuttle of FLL, they do not pick up in Miami on demand, only with a reservation.

Supershuttle in the contracted shuttle service of MIA (disclaimer-who I work for) and travel time on a Sunday Afternoon is typically 35-45 minutes on an exclusive van service ride. Shared-ride service (per passenger rate) may take longer as there may be other stops on the way for this 30 mile run between airports. Depending on the number in your party, the exclusive van may be the less expensive option and we always default to the least expensive option when booking.

Sometimes there is construction during the day on Sundays, but it is in the area between the Golden Glades and FLL, where our drivers are instructed to detour via the Turnpike/595 route which adds 5 minutes to the travel time, yet reduces delays if an accident/closures do occur.

Uber/Lyft are available, but can only pick up in designated zones, one of which is outside the customs area of terminal D (AA Int'l arrivals). However not many use mini-vans, so with a small family may not be the best option.
Thank you very much for all the helpful intelligence. 90 mins through ICE definitely makes both of these options tight, especially if my first flight is delayed. We'll probably come in on an earlier flight to be safe.
