Airport Transportation in Miami
Pre-booked private transportation takes you directly from Miami International Airport to your hotel, resort or vacation rental.
After immigration, baggage claim and customs, continue outside the terminal to the meeting area named in your confirmation. Your vehicle is reserved only for the passengers on your reservation: unlike a shared shuttle, it makes no extra hotel stops for other travelers, and the price is per vehicle, not per person.
From Miami International we take you to South Beach and Miami Beach, downtown Miami and Brickell, Coral Gables, Coconut Grove, Key Biscayne, the cruise terminals at PortMiami, Fort Lauderdale and Port Everglades, and down to the Florida Keys, with airport transportation in Miami booked before your flight.
Miami Airport Transfers
Your driver meets you at the terminal you arrive at, North, Central or South, at the pickup point in your confirmation. We track your flight, so a delay moves the pickup instead of canceling it, and the price for the whole vehicle is fixed before you fly.
Miami airport transfers run door to door in sedans, SUVs and vans for groups: to hotels in South Beach, Mid-Beach and Bal Harbour, offices and condos in Brickell and downtown, homes in Coral Gables and Doral, cruise departures at PortMiami and Port Everglades, and longer trips to Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach and the Keys.
Miami Airport Shuttle
The Miami airport shuttle is a private van for your party only, with no stops at other hotels along the beach. It has room for luggage and cruise bags and suits families, cruise groups, wedding parties and friends heading to South Beach for a long weekend.
Landing at Miami Airport
Miami International Airport (MIA) sits west of downtown Miami. It has one long horseshoe-shaped terminal divided into the North Terminal (Concourse D, American Airlines' hub, with its own Skytrain), the Central Terminal (Concourses E and F) and the South Terminal (Concourses G, H and J). The MIA Mover links the terminal to the Rental Car Center and the Miami Intermodal Center.
International arrivals clear US immigration and customs before entering the public area, and queues can be long when several flights from Latin America and Europe land together. Signs are in English and Spanish. Summer thunderstorms and hurricane season, from June to November, can delay flights. Miami is on Eastern time.
- Entry to the US: international travelers need a valid passport and either a visa or an approved ESTA under the Visa Waiver Program. Have your arrival address ready for the immigration officer.
- Customs: declare food, plants and animal products, and cash over $10,000.
- Your terminal: give your airline and flight number when you book. MIA is long, and the driver meets you at the North, Central or South Terminal exit you use.
- MIA, not Fort Lauderdale: Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) is a separate airport. Check that your ticket says MIA before you book this page.
- Cruise days: give your ship and port (PortMiami or Port Everglades) so the driver goes to the right terminal.
Before you fly to Miami
How Miami Airport pickup works
- 1
Clear arrivals
Immigration, baggage claim, then customs. Representatives can't enter those areas.
- 2
Meet your representative
At the meeting point in your confirmation. Check the company name before getting in.
- 3
Go straight there
No other stops, no other passengers.
Follow your confirmation
MIA is large and drivers do not all meet at the same curb. Follow the terminal, door and meeting point in your confirmation, and contact your driver after baggage claim if you cannot find them.
Don't accept a ride from someone claiming to know your booking. Check the company name and reservation details before getting in.

We monitor the arrival of the flight on your reservation, but can't find you on a different one. If any of these change, update them in Manage your booking:

Read the reservation policies →Miami Airport Transportation FAQs
Where do I meet my driver at Miami Airport?
At the terminal you exit from, North, Central or South, at the pickup point in your confirmation. MIA is large, so contact your driver after baggage claim if you can't find them; the contact details are in your confirmation.
What happens if my flight to Miami is delayed?
We monitor the flight on your reservation, so a delay doesn't cancel your pickup. If your flight number, date or airline changes, or the flight is canceled, update it in Manage your booking as soon as you know.
How long does it take to get through customs at MIA?
It depends on how many international flights land together; at peak times it can take an hour or more. Your flight is tracked, and the driver's contact details are in your confirmation if you need to tell them you're still inside.
Is the price per person or per vehicle?
Per vehicle. The price you see when you book covers the whole car or van and everyone in your party.
Can you take me from Miami Airport to South Beach?
Yes. Hotels in South Beach, Mid-Beach, North Beach and Bal Harbour are among the most booked drop-offs from MIA. Enter your hotel when you book to see the price.
Do you do transfers from Miami Airport to PortMiami?
Yes. You can book transfers from MIA to the cruise terminals at PortMiami, and to Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale. Give your ship and sailing time so the pickup leaves enough margin for boarding.
Do you go to Brickell and downtown Miami?
Yes. Hotels, offices and condos in Brickell, downtown and Edgewater are common drop-offs. Give the building name and full address when you book.
Can you take me to Fort Lauderdale, Palm Beach or the Florida Keys?
Yes. Longer transfers to Fort Lauderdale, Boca Raton, Palm Beach, Key Largo, Islamorada and Key West can be booked. Enter your destination when you book to see the price.
I'm flying into Fort Lauderdale. Is this the right page?
No. This page is for Miami International Airport (MIA). Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood (FLL) is a separate airport, so book from the page for the airport on your ticket.
Do you have vans for groups?
Yes. Vans for larger groups and cruise parties can be booked, subject to availability. Choose the vehicle that fits your party and luggage when you book.
Can I book a pickup for a late arrival or an early departure?
Yes. Transportation can be scheduled for late arrivals and early departures. Availability is confirmed through the booking system, so book ahead and give your exact flight time.
Can I book the return trip to the airport too?
Yes. Add the return trip when you book, or book it later; a PortMiami to MIA transfer on disembarkation day is a common one. Give your departure time and airline so the pickup leaves enough margin for traffic, check-in and security.
Is Airport Transportation the same as Miami International Airport?
No. Airport Transportation is an independent booking site for private transfers and is not part of the airport. For flight information and airport services, see our Miami airport guide.
