We will usually drive down and stay at a hotel the night before so we aren’t rushed the next day and the hotel offers free parking up to 10 days with the overnight stay.

SW had flight on Oct 20 as low $49 to Ft Lauderdale. $69 $79 in price rate specials

Another vote for Yankee Trails. Good company.
Skip

Yankee Trails offered bus transportation, used to charge $90 R/T p/p and you did not have to book the cruise with them. 352-633-4643. An option if you could not locate private transportation. Usually only 2 to 4 pickup locations, rest stop and ports at Lauderdale and Miami.

Buyer Beware: When hiring a private service as some suggested, MAKE SURE they are permitted for that cruise port. Yes, they are legal to drop you off "BUT", if they aren't permitted for that port on your pick up, that driver will be fined and vehicle impounded as an illegal service. That brings into play then, their private auto insurance is not for commercial use, so if something heaven forbid was to happen on your ride, YOU ARE NOT COVERED!

So if that private car gets impounded upon your return by using an illegal service not permitted, now how do you get home? Think everyone, using an illegal service has consequences you may not be considering for your safety and welfare.

Are you saying the ship that just went out Sat or sun, with that white haired news guy aboard, came back with covid cases?

Boy, that would be nice! Aren't those clubs expensive? Is it similar to a timeshare, or is it that point system thing?
I can't tell you how many times I've needed to just fly into leesburg.....I live in historic and can't do that drive from ny, and flying mco or sfb is always a hassle. Oh well.

I always drive down the night before and stay at a hotel.They also provide a shuttle to
the pier. I leave the car at the hotel for the 10 days.But now that I bought a new car,
I will probably just drive to the pier, and park there in a covered garage. I feel the car will be safer there, more expensive, but worth it.

Rent a car. Most economical

Great idea. That’s the way to go.

I will drive you, how's that?
Everyone wants to make a buck.

Remember this.
All car services like restaurants and other industries, are still boogered up as a result of COVID.
For instance, Uber wanted $46 one way to go from SS to Lake Sumter,
I said.. screw you... I will walk!!
I used Uber over the summer, $19 one way to go pick up my new truck.

Best bet. Rent a car, round trip. May even be cheaper to park the rental at any of the many hotels who want to rent out parking spots left and right to catch up for lost business. I rented a spot for a week for $29.60 at the Renaissance near Orlando last month.
Take a look.

Remember this.... that old expression..."A free lunch"
Democrats ate that years ago, now it is all pay pay pay.

Thanks Joke Bidone

drive your car, leave it at the 'Park and Fly' lot...you'll get a bus ride over and back.

we did this for years when we lived in Ft Lauderdale and flew back and forth to Boston often


or, rent a car and pay the one way drop off fee and do the same for the return

Not sure why you reeceived so much fort lauderdale info but port everglades is a 90 minute drive.
go to Park Port Canaveral-$9.85 per day with promo code and you can make a reservation and they will shuttle you to any ship you need.

Port Everglades is in Fort Lauderdale.
