GO Airport Shuttle provides private car service and cruise port transportation from FLL to Port Everglades, with all-inclusive fares from $47 per vehicle. The trip from Fort Lauderdale airport to Port Everglades is about three miles and takes roughly fifteen minutes, which makes this the easiest fly-and-cruise connection in the country. Port Everglades is the only cruise port in the United States located directly next to a major airport.

For nearly 20 years we have been a part of South Florida transportation, and cruise transfers are a good share of what we do here. We take you to your assigned cruise terminal rather than a central drop-off point, on your schedule rather than a shuttle timetable. Your fare is set when you book and includes all taxes, fees, and driver gratuity, so it does not move if you land into a Saturday embarkation rush.

Getting from FLL to Port Everglades on Embarkation Day

Embarkation day concentrates thousands of passengers into the same few hours. Every ship sailing that afternoon is boarding at once, and nearly everyone aboard them is moving from the airport to the port in the same window. That one fact shapes every option in front of you.

  • The cruise line shuttle bus. Sold as an add-on through your cruise line, it runs on its schedule rather than yours. You wait for it to fill, you ride with everyone else who booked it, your luggage goes into a shared bay, and it often stops at another terminal before it reaches yours.
  • Rideshare and taxi. Straightforward on a quiet weekday. Embarkation morning is the opposite of a quiet weekday. Demand concentrates precisely when you need a car, which is precisely when pricing responds and waits stretch. You find out what you are paying and how long you are standing there once you are already at the curb with your bags.
  • A private car booked in advance. Your own vehicle, sized to your party and your bag count, going directly to your assigned cruise terminal. The fare is set when you book and includes all taxes, fees, and driver gratuity. Your driver tracks your flight, so a delay moves your pickup time and changes nothing else about your booking.

This is why we do not offer a shared ride from FLL to the cruise port. Getting from the airport to your ship is the leg where privacy is the whole point. Loading yourself plus suitcases onto a bus alongside everyone else sailing that day is the experience a private transfer exists to replace.

Port Everglades Cruise Terminals

Port Everglades has eight cruise terminals, numbers 2, 4, 18, 19, 21, 25, 26, and 29, spread across Midport and Southport rather than clustered together. They are far enough apart that arriving at the wrong one on embarkation morning is a genuine problem, not a short walk.

Terminal Typically serves
Terminal 2 Carnival Corporation lines
Terminal 4 Disney Cruise Line
Terminal 18 Royal Caribbean
Terminal 19 Princess Cruises
Terminal 21 Carnival Cruise Line
Terminal 25 Celebrity Cruises
Terminal 26 Holland America Line
Terminal 29 varies by season

Terminal assignments shift by sailing date and ship, so always confirm yours on your cruise documents. Give us your terminal number when you book and your driver takes you to that pier rather than a central drop-off point.

Pro Travel Tip: Private SUVs comfortably seat five with room for five bags at $97, and a Private Van can  accommodate 10 plus luggage for $108 with everything included.  People going on a cruise frequently pack more than they would for a normal trip, and booking a vehicle with room for all of it means you are not sorting that out at the airport curb on the morning your ship sails.

FLL to Port Everglades Transportation FAQs:

Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL) operates across four distinct terminal buildings. Where you meet your ride depends entirely on the type of service you select:

  • Shared Airport Shuttles: After collecting your baggage at the lower-level baggage claim, exit the terminal doors and follow the green directional signs to the designated pick-up zones.  Shuttles load in specific, numbered zones assigned to your terminal.
  • Private Car & Van Service: We provide convenient arrivals-level curbside pickup. Once you have retrieved all checked luggage, reply to your automated driver text or call dispatch. Your private vehicle will pull up directly to the terminal curb outside your baggage claim exit. (Note: Airport security prohibits private vehicles from idling at the curb, so please ensure your group is outside with luggage before calling your driver forward).

From the airport to the cruise port, our service is private car service rather than shared ride, starting at $47 per vehicle. On embarkation day a private car takes you and your luggage straight to your assigned terminal on your own schedule, which is what most cruisers want on that particular morning. Shared ride shuttle service is available from Fort Lauderdale hotels to Port Everglades, from $35 per person.

The cruise line transfer runs on a fixed schedule and fills a bus before it departs, often stopping at more than one terminal. A private car leaves when you land, carries only your party and your bags, and goes directly to your pier. For couples, families, and anyone traveling with more than a carry-on, the private transfer is usually the better trade for a similar spend.

Yes. Every fare includes all taxes, fees, and driver gratuity. There is nothing to add at the end of the ride.

Yes, we track your flight. An early arrival, a delay, or time on the tarmac adjusts your pickup automatically and does not change your fare.

Yes. Give us your terminal number when you book and your driver takes you directly to that pier, not to a central drop-off point.

Port Everglades recommends allowing at least 45 minutes between your flight landing and cruise check-in, to claim luggage and complete your terminal paperwork. That is the minimum, not the target.

For a same-day fly-and-cruise, we suggest landing no later than early afternoon for a standard afternoon boarding cutoff, which leaves room for a delayed bag, a customs line, or an hour on the tarmac. The drive itself is the shortest and most predictable part of the day.

Yes, and this is the part most cruisers do not know is possible.

A typical pre-cruise trip has four separate legs. Airport to your hotel. Hotel to the cruise terminal. Terminal back to your hotel or straight to the airport when you disembark. You can book all of them in a single reservation with GO, rather than arranging four rides with three companies and hoping each one shows.

The common patterns:

  • Fly in the day before. FLL to your Fort Lauderdale hotel, hotel to your cruise terminal the next morning.
  • Fly in and sail the same day. FLL straight to your terminal.
  • Round trip. Add the return leg from the port back to FLL, or back to your hotel for a post-cruise night.

Every leg is priced upfront and includes taxes, fees, and gratuity. Book the whole itinerary once and it is handled.
