Lauderdale station to Port Everglades. I also see that you need to pay $25 per large suitcase if you plan to bring one. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks!
We are taking a transatlantic cruise in April and looked at options, of using the brightline also but found it expensive. We checked into using Enterprise car rental in Lake Sumpter Landing and found it is the best way to go. Pick up car the day before pack it leave the next morning. Port is about 2 miles from car rental. When we return we fly into Orlando and pickup car at airport. We thought of using Groom but if plain is late it can be a hassle to get a return to the Villages.
