Very informative living in Florida about 1 hr from Miami Cruiseport I take the palm beach tri -rail train to Miami airport train station and then take Uber or cab to the port
Here is a tip to save some money if flying in to Miami and you’re sailing out of Fort Lauderdale or vice versa, there is tri rail that runs between the two airports, very inexpensive and that will get you closer to your port city.
Everyone of these so called know it all always forgets about tri rail. And I do believe when the new train starts running from Orlando, they will have a shuttle taking you to the cruise terminal
Cheaper than Uber?
I can’t wait to take a cruise 🚢 ❤
Another informative video!!
Thank you for the all helpful cruise port recommendations!
I agree, Miami is my favorite port for sail away!
You guys are so great!! Looking good and healthy too!!! Thank you for the great tips!!
You two are the best!
Going out of Miami this Nov on the NCL Joy. Staying at the Holiday Inn Downtown (port). Flying into FLL. Will look into the Tri Rail. Thanks as always for your tips.
Love this series of videos, very informational.
Thanks....
Thanks for the helpful and no nonsense information👍
Greetings from the Netherlands 😊
Great video! We are sailing from Miami next weekend on the new Oceania Vista. Appreciate the reminder to watch the sail-away! We were booking specialty dining, so may "delay" to a later time so we can enjoy the 6 p.m. night-time sail-away! :)
Thanks for the info and tips
Great info! Thanks!
We stayed at Holiday Inn Port of Miami. Older but clean and enjoyed the Bayside market.
How did you get to the port I'm flying into Miami next July leaving out of Miami
@@meme-pf6xh we took Carnival transportation but won’t again there are plenty of Uber/Lyft drivers plus taxicabs right there near baggage claim
Great info and tips
This video was very informative. Thank you.😊
Miami is my favorite cruise port. I always stay the night before at the Hilton Miami Airport Hotel. For my next cruise, I booked the EB Hotel Miami Airport instead. The pictures of their rooms looks amazing! My last cruise was a B2B on the Carnival Celebration. I'm booked for another B2B on the Celebration this winter. Thanks for the tip on booking each flight separately, I will try that.
Thank You For All The Exciting Info . 😊
Thanks Elaine!!!
Thank you for the information and showing pictures. Planning to do my 1st Carnival cruise experience this August 2024🙂
me too! i just booked today, but i didnt know it was hurricane season lol. mine is the beginning of august though, so hopefully there wont be anything :(
Hey Guys
Thanks for the Great Video. Thanks for sharing.
Cheers 🍻🍺🍻
Very informative video. Thank you
Miami is my favorite port
Only found your channel just now, thanks for your videos about the different ports. My Mum and I will be going on our first ever cruise later on in the year. We’re sailing out of Miami, and will be flying in from London. We’re going to arrive 2 days before the cruise. We’ve visited Miami in 2007, weeks stayed in Bal Harbour back then. We’re both really looking forward to our cruise though! Thank you for the very good info. 😊
Thank you!!!
Good Morning Sharon, good Morning Jamie, i start my Carnival Celebration Cruise from Miami next Sunday. I will be in Miami at Saturday afternoon. I have take the EB Hotel Miami Airport. I was last Year in this Hotel. It is wounderful. I had a room with a view on the Runway.
I booked for this Cruise the Stay and Cruise Package. It is a good Deal. Shuttle from Airport to the Hotel, Breakfast and the Shuttle to the Port.
Thank you kindly!
The hotels we have stayed at in Miami is Tru by Hilton Miami Airport S. Blue Lagoon and Radisson Red Miami Airport. We have found stating near the airport is more affordable for us and it only took us about 15-20 minutes to get to the port.
That was helpful!
We are going on our first cruise out of miami in november. We are from denmark and have a long flight. We will be staying 5 days at the tony hotel south beach
Hope you have a great time!!! Thanks for watching!!!
Great video. I am sailing from Miami in October. Just want to let you know that one flights was a great tip I always usually end up booking separate flights due to cost and flight times 😀
Thanks Tony!!!
Don’t forget West Palm Beach International. Easy in easy out. The Brightline train can take you from West Palm Beach or Ft Lauderdale to their Miami Station. From there there is free shuttle service to the port
Thanks Ken.
Thank you for a great review! We are lucky to live here, so for us the Port is a drive away, we have found a few places to park close to the port that have shuttles to the Port instead of parking at the Port, which can be expensive.
Thanks Mercy!!!
Informative. Sailing ⛵️ with Virgin in January 2024..birthday!😊
You guys did an awesome job! That was a lot of work! Only thing lacking is how to get down there by car. We’re getting ready to drive down for the first time! 😯
Thanks DJ...you might find a hotel that offers a Park and Cruise option, or an inexpensive long term parking option by the airport.
I booked one way flights to and from the Fort Lauderdale Airport from Vancouver BC for this October and saved over $400.00 on 2 tickets for a back to back on the Carnival Celebration.
Great savings Douglas!!!
We usually rent a car (one-way) but really like the freedom to travel around outside the downtown area. With this mobility we usually stay at the Rodeway Inn in Coral Gables / South Miami just past University of Miami. There is also a train Station right there if one wanted to travel this way as well, lots of restaurants, shopping and pharmacies / grocery stores. Being away from the downtown drops the price. When flying into FLL and cruising from Port Miami we generally will get a spot in Hollywood and also save some money.
Thanks Dave!!!
Great info, thanks🏖🏖
I’ve stayed twice at the Ramada Miami Springs
If you can do it, snagging a credit card that gives flight reward points is a HUGE money saver. A lot of them offer 30-50,000 bonus points if you spend X amount of dollars on the card over the first 90 days or so. If you filter your monthly bills through the card and then pay it off right away for the points...you rack up plenty of points real quick. We just snagged two tickets from Ohio to Miami for a grand total of $22! Not too shabby!
Thank you for this information we fly from Phoenix and wonder is Fort Lauderdale or Miami airport close to same distance
Miami is closer but Ft Lauderdale is a good option if the price is right if sailing from Miami.
Do you guys have a info video on the port at Ft. Lauderdale?
Port Canaveral has now taken the title of top cruise port in the world from Port of Miami as of February 2023. Have used both and Port Canaveral is clearly the easiest of the two.
Definitely agree!!
Do you guys have any information about shuttles busses?? No one on TH-cam takes about shuttles. I did find one person but no information
Do they have carry out breakfast near the port and how far is the prot from the airport Miami?
Question. Sharon since you're the Queen of research I thought you might know. I use to live in Miami and know it and love it since Coral Gables High. Been on Three cruises out of Port of Miami, so easy. Booked on Wonder in December. Best friends live in Miami so staying there. The one thing that's changed are the trains. Can you take a train from Miami to Port Canaveral the morning of the cruise or would be cheaper to drive and park for $150. Thank you for any knowledge and I love your videos.
I think Brightline runs from Miami to Orlando but I do not think there are any stops after West Palm Beach. The Brightline station is at Terminal C of the MCO airport. Possibly train to there and shuttle to the port? Not sure if there will be any stations built out closer to the Space Coast or not. I do know there are extending eventually to Tampa from MCO.
Thank you Dave. I'll Google more.
We are flying in next Thursday at midnight. Staying at the holiday inn. There are six of us is a Uber the best and safest way to get from the airport to the hotel
Six plus luggage..might need 2 Ubers, but certainly safe.
Check if your hotel has free shuttle. Might have to schedule it that late.
Question: Have you flown into FLL and take an Uber over to Miami? For example to the Marriott Courtyard downtown or any hotel near the port? If so, was it a savings at least over $250 at least?
We have flown into FLL for a miami cruise a few times to save money. Just a few extra bucks for the taxi/uber ride.
I stayed at the Courtyard Marriott Downtown Miami or the Intercontinental
And I thought Port Canaveral was #1. Was in Miami once. It was a port of call for a cruise. Didn't impress my late wife and I. Not a beach person. This video was helpful.
Thanks Harlan. Yes, Port Canaveral is officially the busiest port with the most cruisers as of 2022.
What terminal is for arrival to Carnival sunrise ?
Would you suggest staying at the Double Tree Biscayne Bay or farther out like Staybridge Miami Airport?
Doubletree looks great and with the right room, you could wake up and see all the Cruise Ships lined up in the morning!!! If the budget allows the DoubleTree..go for it!!!
@@SharonatSeaTravel I have it booked!! Thank you!! Fingers crossed my 3 bedroom is a bay view!!
How is it getting a taxi from the port of Miami to Miami international airport? Are there huge lines? Can Ubers pick you up at the port?
It can be hectic, but u can get an Uber or a taxi for sure. Ubers are coming and going all morning at the port. Just might take a but longer than usual with multiple ships debarking.
I’m returning from the cruise at 8 and have a 9:30 return flight at the Miami airport. Is that enough time to not miss my flight?
That is definitely cutting it too close.
Do you know if any of the hotels near the airpot in miami that will shuttle you to the port?
I don't know of any hotels near the airport with a port shuttle. The port is too big with too many ships.
Comfort inn and suites international airport hotel
Does anyone know if it's easy to find an uber at the end of the cruise? Or what would be the best way to travel back to the airport please?
Taxis-easy / Uber takes a little longer due to traffic but they will certainly get there..just give yourself a little extra time on Debarkation morning.
@@SharonatSeaTravel thank you
@@SharonatSeaTraveldo you know the estimated time once you get to the port to get out to the stations ? I have 3hours to be at the airport
Is there a hotel thar is walking distance from Miami Cruise Port?
No, there is not. The port is over the causway, or you might go through a tunnel underground, but either way, you do not want to be walking. Closest hotel that we know of is Holiday Inn across from Bayside Marketplace on Biscayne Blvd.
Flying from BC Can to ride the waves on RCL in 2025
Is July ok month to be in cruise with kids from Miami to Bahamas?
Yes..lots of families cruise all summer since kids are out of school. Great time, but it will be hot.
@@SharonatSeaTravel what about the first week of august?
I'll be leaving in August how do I get to the port from the airport
Uber or lyft is usually cheapest and fastest way.
Uber or Lyft might be the easiest and fastest way.
I have booked Icon cruise on October. I made a call to customer service and they told me that arriving time is 6AM and debarkation should start between 60 to 90 minutes.Do you think I have enough time to get flight at 12:30PM?How long takes it at customs?Thank you.
As long as there are no delays, you could make it, but be ready early. Have a great cruuse!
Great tips. Miami traffic is awful.
Hu; new subscriber here. We live in Maryland, NYC port (closer) VS Miami port? Thx!!!❤❤❤
Thanks David!!! That's a tough comparison! Miami is easier to navigate, but for those that haven't sailed from NYC..it can be an amazing adventure!
This video was more of a travel guide of Miami as a pose for the actual Port of Miami….kinda misleading 👎
Well, it's designed to help people that are going to Miami for a Cruise. Was there something specific about the port you wanted to know?
You need to factor in that saving time on vacation is worth more then $200 unless you don’t have it… then why travel? Vacation is about enjoying your time.
It just gets old, seeing video after video focused on saving money or cutting costs. Doesn't anybody just spend whatever it takes to get the vaca they want anymore?
Naw
Certainly, but they aren't watching TH-cam videos.
Well I am, and I take the vaca I want, no cutting corners. There's no promise how many days we have, I won't piss any away on a vaca that was almost what I wanted, even if I need to save longer to take it. @@michaelweinrich9559
Miami is one of the WORST airports. I don’t know anyone who likes it
Wow all useless information even months latter
Are you saying you watched the video a few months ago and then watched it now thinking it would have different information?
Cruise port hotel miami
I will not cruise out of any Florida ports, until DeSenseless is out of office. If I do not cruise anytime soon… Oh, well!
Lmao
Thank you for the information. I had a Holiday Inn room booked before seeing this, so it's great to know it was a good choice. The flight idea is great info. We still need to book ours. My understanding best time for prices is approximately 44 days prior to expected departure..thoughts @sharonatsea. Thank you again.
Thanks for watching Henry!!!
