A private ride between MIA Airport and Home2 Suites by Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel spans 23.4 miles (37.7 km) and takes roughly 36–45 minutes on the I-95 EXPR, seated in a black SUV or a climate-controlled van for a flat fare starting at $120 per vehicle. Your party reserves the whole car, the driver follows your flight, and the price is fixed the moment you book.
Every rate below is charged per vehicle for the whole group and locked in at booking — just pick the size that matches your party and its bags.
A private door-to-door car is the most straightforward way to travel this 23.4-mile stretch up to Fort Lauderdale. You book a single vehicle for your entire party, hand us the flight number, and the driver takes care of everything else. Solo travelers and couples ride the Black SUV, which seats up to five with bags. A group of six to nine takes the Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van, while a party of ten to fourteen rides the larger Sprinter. It is a simple process: send us your flight details, pickup date, and passenger count by WhatsApp or email, and we confirm the vehicle and the flat fare in writing. Since the car is dedicated to you alone, there is no shared seating and no detour to pick up other riders. When you land, the driver greets you at the curb outside baggage claim, loads your luggage, and heads north to the hotel.
Three private vehicle classes serve this route, and each one is booked for your party alone.
The trip runs 23.4 miles (37.7 km) and takes about 36 minutes off-peak, climbing toward 45 minutes when traffic builds. Most of the distance follows the I-95 EXPR north before exiting toward the airport-and-cruise-port corridor in Fort Lauderdale. Off-peak windows — mid-morning, early afternoon, and late evening — usually keep the highway moving. The slowest periods are the weekday morning and late-afternoon commutes, when the express lanes fill and the run reaches the upper end of the range. Because the fare is fixed, a longer drive never affects your price; there is no meter here. We build the pickup timing around your flight and the time of day so the car is waiting when you reach the curb. If you are returning to MIA for a departure, plan the pickup using the same peak-versus-off-peak reasoning.
A private vehicle held for your group is the heart of this service — no one else rides along, and no one reroutes your trip. The fare is a flat fare set at booking, so the price you confirm is exactly what you pay no matter the traffic or demand. Your driver is bilingual, speaking English plus Spanish or Portuguese, which eases arrival questions and directions to the hotel. Luggage is taken care of: the driver loads and unloads every bag at both ends. You stay in direct contact with us over WhatsApp from the moment you book right through pickup, so any change to your plans reaches a real person quickly. The standard allowance covers one checked bag and one carry-on per passenger, and if your party brings extra or oversized bags, a quick message lets us confirm space or move you up to a larger van.
Home2 Suites by Hilton sits within the airport-and-cruise-port corridor of Fort Lauderdale, an extended-stay property made for travelers connecting through the area’s airport and sailing from its nearby cruise terminals. The setting is practical and suburban rather than touristy: picture wide arterial roads, chain dining, and easy access to the waterfront and the city’s beach districts a short drive away. The all-suite rooms suit families, cruise passengers spending the night before embarkation, and longer business stays. You can review the property overview on the official Home2 Suites Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port page, and check room types and amenities through the hotel’s location and amenity details. The surrounding area offers quick access to the cruise port, the airport, and the wider Fort Lauderdale beachfront and dining scene without a long inland drive.
The flat fare includes the door-to-door private ride, the assigned vehicle, and the costs of the road itself, so the confirmed fare is what you pay.
Tolls, SunPass, and fuel are all baked into the price — nothing on the highway is added to your bill. The car is yours alone for the trip, the driver loads and unloads your luggage, and onboard WiFi runs off a mobile hotspot so you stay connected on the ride north.
A handful of situations add a confirmed-at-booking cost, listed below. The in-terminal meet-and-greet with a name sign is an optional paid add-on rather than the standard pickup, and additional child seats beyond the first carry an extra fee.
Payment is split into a deposit at booking and the balance on trip day, with several methods accepted.
Daytime hours run from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM with no surcharge. Trips falling outside that window carry a small add-on, applied by vehicle type as shown below.
The rate is per vehicle, not per person — your entire party rides for the single flat price of that vehicle class. Five people in the SUV pay the same as one. A round trip is simply double the one-way fare, and a small surcharge applies for trips outside daytime hours.
The standard allowance is one checked bag plus one carry-on per passenger, and the driver loads it all for you. Bringing extra or oversized bags? Send a quick WhatsApp message ahead of the trip and we confirm space or move you up to a larger van so your gear rides comfortably.
Your driver follows the inbound flight in real time and adjusts the pickup automatically, so an early or delayed landing simply re-times the meet at no extra cost. There is nothing to re-book and no penalty for a schedule the airline changed. Once you clear baggage claim, the car is ready.
The included pickup is curbside: your driver waits at the curb outside baggage claim as you exit the terminal and helps load your bags. If you would rather be met inside with a name sign, the in-terminal meet-and-greet is an optional paid add-on you can request at booking.
Yes. Many travelers use Home2 Suites the night before a sailing, and we operate private transfers to or from MIA Airport and Home2 Suites by Hilton Ft. Lauderdale Airport-Cruise Port Hotel as well as onward drop-offs to the cruise port. Just give us the embarkation date and group size, and we match the right SUV or van.
The transfer runs in a licensed and insured vehicle with a bilingual driver who speaks English plus Spanish or Portuguese. You ride privately, with no shared seating and no unknown co-passengers, and you stay in direct WhatsApp contact with us from booking through arrival if anything changes.
