Port of Miami Cruise Parking (Where to Park): Prices, Profiles, & Map

As the busiest cruise port in the world, Miami sees its fair share of passengers driving in for their vacation. Of course, that means that they need a place to park.

Located on Dodge Island, which is just across the bridge from downtown Miami, the cruise terminals are in a busy area of town where parking space is at a premium. Still, if you need to park for your cruise, then you’ll have no problem finding a spot. The port itself offers convenient parking right at the ship, but it comes at a steep price.

That’s why it pays to know your options. Prices vary considerably, based mainly on convenience to the port.

As a rule of thumb, the closer you park to the ship, the more costly it will be. The most expensive parking is located right at the port but is also the easiest to use. Luckily, there are other options if you are a bargain hunter.

(Note: If you are planning to spend a night in the area, check out our page of Port of Miami hotels with cruise parking   or Miami hotels with port shuttles . These hotels can help you save money on parking or transportation to the port.)

Miami Cruise Parking Lot Costs

Prices for parking can vary widely. The Port of Miami charges $22 per day ($25-$28 if sailing Royal Caribbean), while independent lots typically charge between $11-12 per day. One thing to keep in mind is that taxes and fees at independent lots can add several dollars each day to your cost. 

Note: There are a number of parking lots that show up on some third-party websites, but are difficult to find reliable information about. We’ve left those options off our list.

Official Port of Miami Parking Lots (Recommended)

While it is the priciest option, we recommend that cruise passengers simply park at the official port lots. Not only is it the most convenient with the ability to park right at the ship, but it is also the most reliable option we’ve found. There is a garage located right near each cruise terminal.

For the convenience of parking here, be prepared to pay the price. Overnight parking for most terminals is $22 per night. Parking at Royal Caribbean’s Terminal A is $25 per night for sailings of six days or more. The rate is $28 per day for cruises of five days or less.

Parking is available for oversized vehicles, but will cost extra and is in only one lot, across from Terminal E (which may or may not be convenient to your ship). Credit cards including Visa, MasterCard, Amex, and Discover, as well as cash and traveler’s checks are accepted. However, debit cards are not.

Parking comes in both covered (parking garage) and uncovered lots. The good news is that there are several options for where to park, so you can always find a lot that’s near your cruise ship. Simply follow the signs to your ship as you arrive at the port and you’ll find the parking lot or garage nearby.

Here’s a map with each lot and garage labeled:

Want to save some money? Disabled passengers in vehicles with specialized equipment (such as lifts or foot/hand controls) and those with Florida disabled veteran license plates can park for free. Click here for more details , or you can call the port at 305-347-4800.

• Cost: $22 per day | $25-$28 per day at Terminal A (Royal Caribbean)
• Distance: At terminal 
• Website: http://www.miamidade.gov/portmiami/parking-information.asp

Independent Parking Lots

In addition to the port, there are several options from independent parking lots in the area.

Safe Cruise Parking Safe Cruise Parking offers a good deal, covered garage parking, and 24/7 security. That’s a pretty compelling offer for a rate that’s considerably less than the cruise parking lots at the port.

Prices are $11 per day, but keep in mind you are charged for both the day you arrive and the day you leave. So if you arrive on a Saturday for a 7-day cruise and then leave the next Saturday, you’ll be charged for eight days. As well, taxes and fees increase the cost. For a week-long cruise, expect to pay about $100 for parking. Even with taxes and fees, that’s about half the rate of the Port of Miami.

The lot is located about 1.5 miles driving from the cruise terminals. A shuttle runs regularly to the Miami port and is free. Reservations are available on their website, which we recommend to ensure you have a spot when you arrive.

• Cost: ~$12.50 per day (includes taxes & fees)
• Distance: 1.5 miles (free shuttle provided) | 189 NE 2nd St. 
• Website: https://www.safecruiseparking.com

Premier Cruise Parking If you want to park in a garage where your car is protected from the searing Miami sun, then look into this company. Similar to Safe Cruise Parking above, this lot is actually a garage offering multiple levels of covered parking.

The garage (the MET3 parking garage in downtown Miami) is located about a mile from the port and offers a free shuttle to and from the cruise terminal. Rates run about $10.50 per day. But with taxes and fees you can expect to pay about $100 in total for parking on a one-week cruise — or roughly $12.50 per day. No oversize vehicles are allowed.

• Distance: 1.5 miles (free shuttle provided) | 250 SE 3rd Ave.
• Website:  http://premiercruiseparking.com/

WeParkIn Miami With parking in a garage just across the causeway from the port, this spot is among the closest you’ll find. The garage is located in downtown Miami and only minutes away from the ships.

During our search we found prices of $9.99 per day (including the cost for both the day you arrive and the day you leave), but with taxes and fees, the prices ends up being around $11.50 per day for a week cruise. That’s about 50% the cost of parking at the cruise terminal. In addition, the parking lot website says they have a shuttle service to get you back and forth from PortMiami.

• Cost: ~$11.50 per day (includes taxes & fees)
• Distance: 1.5 miles | 850 NE 2nd Ave

Miami Hotels With Cruise Parking (Recommended)

If you are staying in the Miami area in a hotel, then you may be able to save on your parking. Many hotels cater to cruisers with special daily parking rates or parking packages, which allow you to leave your car while you sail. 

Hotels include DoubleTree, Comfort Suites, Hampton Inn, and others near the port.

To be sure, if you don’t plan to stay in a hotel before your trip already, it’s not worth it to book a room just to get the parking. But if you already want to stay nearby before your cruise, then a hotel with a parking package can save you money over parking at the port. 

For example, a hotel might be $150 a night normally, but charge $180 for the park and cruise package that lets you leave your car for a week. The extra package cost is lower than the price of parking at the Port of Miami, which charges $22 per day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which parking lot should I use? While it is more expensive, we would suggest the parking at the Port of Miami . Navigating Miami can be difficult, so it’s nice to be able to park right at your ship and simply walk across a street to board. It’s also convenient in that you don’t have to pre-book or reserve anything. You simply arrive at the port on cruise day and park.

Can I park for free anywhere during my cruise? It be great to be able to park for free, but it’s only available in a few situations. First, if you are disabled and your automobile has modifications (such as a ramp), then you are able to park for free at the Port of Miami. As well, those with Florida disabled veteran license plates can also get free parking. You call the port at 305-347-4800 for more details.

If you don’t meet one of those two groups, don’t despair. You can park for free (or a discount) at a number of hotels in the area in exchange for a night’s stay. These hotels offer parking as a perk to attract cruise passengers. See a list of Miami hotels with cruise parking here .

What time should I arrive if I am parking? If you plan to park at the port, we’d suggest arriving 30 minutes before you plan to board. So if you want to board the ship at noon, arrive at 11:30. This will offer plenty of time to park, find your way to the ship and get checked in.

If you plan to park at an off-site parking lot, then we’d up that time to an hour before you board. This gives you plenty of time to park and then shuttle to the cruise ship.

Do I need to reserve a parking spot before I arrive? If you plan to park at the port, you don’t need to reserve any sort of parking. There are spots available and you simply pay when you arrive. For other lots, you’ll want to reserve ahead of time to ensure that they have space available.

Would you pay for the parking as you enter the garage or at the end of your cruise when eiting the garage?

Where is the best place to park when traveling on MSC October 2023? Want a covered and secure lot.

Just at the port. There are garages near each terminal.

We are driving in the night before. It is a 12 hour drive, so I expect to arrive in Miami sometime between 6a-9a. Can we get in the garage at port of miami at that time? Will there be parking available since it is before the cruise before us disembarks?

Not sure on that, but I’d suggest going somewhere, relaxing, sightseeing, or having breakfast. The port will be very busy with everyone trying to get off the ship.

Parking for NCL Terminal B? Cruising in December 2023. Also, one member is handicapped no equipment only a walker. Where do we park? The map is vague. Would like to have the ability to make a reservation.

There’s a parking garage adjacent to the terminal. Just head to the terminal and you’ll see the signs for garage parking.

Is the parking per day or per night? For the period from May 5th to May 8th, will I be charged for 3 or 4 days?

Do you know the height for Terminal F for Carnival. Just wanting to know as I have a truck and wanting to make sure I have enough clearance.

I do not know the exact height, but they are standard parking garages. If you can usually park in a garage, then you should be fine. If not, then there is oversized parking available.

Hi, just checking if this article still up to date and if in Feb 2023 I still can go and find a parking spot at the port. I’m concerned to be full, I hate to leave things like this for the last minute and don’t have reservations. I look at the satellite picture in google maps and dont even see big parking lots at the port, just a lot containers and construction.

Yes, it’s still valid. Miami used parking garages instead of big lots, that’s why Google Maps doesn’t show a lot of big parking lots.

Thanks for the quick response Tanner. I assume those garages are walking distance from the cruises right? Im taking an MSC for the first time and for what I’ve found is in the terminal AA/AAA, so because Royal is on A I assume will be close by and I have to take the Royal Caribbean garage?

AA/AAA is under construction. To my knowledge it’s not open yet. When it is, it will have its own parking.

I have 20 ft long 9 1/2 high campervan. Can I find a spot near Norwegian termi? 11 day cruise.

Roadtrekker

Not sure exactly where the oversized parking is, but it shouldn’t be too far. I know they ask you to park in a surface lot instead of garage.

The Royal Caribbean garage is more expensive than the other port garages. Can I park at another port garage and walk to the RC dock?

I supposed you could, although not sure if they check your boarding pass to ensure you’re in the right garage. Also, the RC terminal is at the very far end of the port, so there is some walking.

Do the lots at the cruise terminal fill up? I fear planning on parking here and no spaces available.

No, you don’t have to worry about that. Even if the lot for that specific terminal did fill up, you would just be redirected to another nearby lot. Plenty of space.

Do I need a reservation to park my car at the terminal A garage? If so, how do I make the reservation?

Thank you very much,

Bob Weinstein

No, you can just drive up the day of the cruise.

Wonder how difficult traffic will be on Saturday before the Super Bowl getting to and into the port of Miami. I know there is a week long event at Bayfront park. How much travel margin should we leave? How much extra time to allow?

We actually went through there on Friday before the Super Bowl. Wasn’t bad at all!

Is this parking right by royal carribean ship?

Yes, if you use the port parking.

Does Miami airport offer shuttle to the port? Also, would economy parking at the airport be cheaper that port parking?

The airport doesn’t have a shuttle to the port, but you can Uber/Lyft. You could use airport parking, and it would likely be cheaper. Just remember to add in the cost and time of transportation between your car and the port.

I received a free cruise and a hotel room for the night before and a shuttle to the cruise port, but they don’t provide parking. The parking at the hotel is very expensive. Where would you recommend I park so that I don’t have to move the car the morning of the cruise and will get a shuttle ride back to my car? I will get a taxi or uber to the hotel from the parking lot.

If it were us, we would simply park at the Port of Miami. It’s more expensive than other lots, but really convenient. If you want to avoid some of the traffic, wait until later in the day to get to the ship.

How would i know if there is parking space available for me to park my car if there is no reservation?

There is ample parking at the port. You don’t have to worry about there being enough space.

Does anyone know if a Dogde Grand Caravan could be considered as a “oversize vehicles”? I am asking because I am looking to Premier Cruise Parking due to the proximity and price and I was just not sure about it

That won’t be oversized. Oversized are things like RVs.

As of today August 27, 2019 Safe Cruise is up to 80 for a week long cruise and that is before ay taxes and fees.

Thanks for the update. Price can and will vary with lots.

What about disabled person to parking is free?

If you meet certain requirements, such as having modifications to the car such as a lift ramp, then you can park for free. See more here: https://cruzely.com/free-disabled-parking-for-florida-cruises/

Other than disabled Florida veterans, Does U.S veterans get a discount?

Glen — we don’t see anything about that. It’s still worth a shot to ask when you arrive.

Disabled customers pay the same rates?

Assuming you meet the requirements, parking at Florida ports is free for disabled passengers. You can find more information here: https://cruzely.com/free-disabled-parking-for-florida-cruises/

Greetings – how do I make a reservation to park at the port of Miami?

If you want to park at the port, reservations aren’t required. Simply show up on cruise day.

Can I part à 24 foot RV, if so, how much is it?

Yes, parking is available. It costs $44 per day for an oversized vehicle.

Downtown Miami is home to many national and international companies, let alone tourists, so parking can really be an issue.

Parking in Miami can be not only hard to find, but also expensive. The average hourly rate in downtown Miami is $7.00. To park for 24 hours at a lot or garage, you will have to pay between $28.00 and $30.00.

Monthly parking , however, is not too expensive with an average cost of around $110 per month.

On-street parking is managed by Miami Parking Authority . There are over 9,000 on-street spots in Miami whose rates vary between $0.75 to $1.50 per hour. Most of the coin-based meters are already replaced by meters that accept coins, credit and debit cards and, in some locations, dollar bills. You also have an option to pay for parking using the Pay-by-Phone app.

You can also find more detailed parking maps for the following locations:  Port of Miami , Sun Life Stadium , Miami International Airport .

Miami Cruise Port Parking: Where to Park Guide

Book Your Next Amazing Cruise with Travel Leader, Jeffrey Cleary

Be prepared with our full Miami cruise port parking guide with official and nearby lots, prices, and plenty of tips for getting to the port.

Most cruise passengers require parking for their vehicles so we’re here to provide an up-to-date round-up of cruise parking options near the Port of Miami, including comparative costs, distances, and shuttle information.

Port of Miami Cruise Parking Facts and Figures 

According to NAFTA, the top three busiest cruise ports in the world are all in southeast Florida.  The busy Port of Miami  leads the way, handling over four million cruise passengers in 2022, a figure that is steadily recovering since the Covid lockdown, according to the official website.

No wonder Miami is nicknamed the “Cruise Capital of the World”! Of course, many of these cruisers arrive by car and use the many options available for Miami cruise port parking.

PortMiami currently has nine passenger terminals serving 23 cruise lines, some using Miami as their home port. It has 466 cruises scheduled to depart from the port in 2023.

Exotic destinations include the Eastern  and Western Caribbean , Bahamas, Mexico, as well as West Coast USA, Alaska and South America via the Panama Canal. It all means there’s a high demand for cruise parking space in Miami, especially in the peak winter season.

Miami Port is located on Dodge Island, south of Biscayne Bay and Miami Beach and east of Downtown Miami. There is limited cruise parking at the terminal, with further off-site cruise parking lots offered nearby.

The port is connected to the city via a causeway over the Intracoastal Waterway and via the undersea Port of Miami Tunnel to the nearby MacArthur Causeway on Watson Island.

As you can imagine, the logistics of efficiently handling millions of cruise passengers and their vehicles arriving and departing from this island port in Miami are considerable.

Miami Cruise Parking Rates

As with most services, cruise parking rates vary depending upon the convenience to the port and the parking services included. The closer you are to the port, generally, the higher the cost of cruise parking. However, there are several alternative options that you might want to consider.

If you want a parking spot at one of the coveted cruise terminal car parks actually in Miami port, you will pay for the convenience. These cruise parking lots also need to be booked well in advance.

You will generally pay a lower rate if you choose cruise parking in Miami, which is further from the port. You will pay more if the parking is on-site, secure garage parking, or if you have an oversize vehicle. You should expect to pay at least $90 for seven nights cruise parking, including fees and taxes.

If you are planning to spend the night before departing on a cruise out of Miami, you can get low-cost (or even free) cruise parking at a Miami hotel. Stay and Cruise packages usually include a courtesy shuttle to and from the Miami cruise port. To give you some idea of comparative costs of Port of Miami cruise parking lots, the rates below provide a guideline cost per day.

• Miami Port Parking at the Cruise Terminal  – From $22
• Royal Caribbean Terminal A cruise parking  – From $25
• Premier Cruise Parking  (covered) – $13
• Cruise Parking Miami Garage  (covered) – $15
• Safe Cruise Parking  – $12.99
• WePark  – $9.99
• Miami hotels – Stay, Park and Cruise packages  from $58- $289

NB.  Many shuttles are free for up to 4 passengers and their luggage. Extra passengers may be charged each way for the transfer.

Onsite Port of Miami Cruise Parking

The best Miami cruise port parking is actually onsite, and there is parking within easy walking distance of each cruise terminal. The official lots  have high security and is in a covered parking garage or on a secure parking lot. 

These sought-after Miami cruise port parking spaces need to be booked well in advance. Generally, drivers must pay the attendant on arrival at the Port of Miami car park (except Garage J, which requires pre-payment). Credit cards and checks are accepted, but not debit cards.

On cruise days, these parking garages are staffed with a parking attendant from 6 am to 5 pm. Generally, drivers who have no prebooked can pay on arrival and receive a decal to display in their car window.

Charges are calculated per night at $22 plus sales tax, so the cost of parking for the duration of your cruise will be at least $162 for a 7-night cruise and $324 for 14 nights. If you are on a shorter cruise of five days or less, the cost is $28 per night.

Cruisers sailing with Royal Caribbean can use their Terminal A car park. However, you will pay a little more for the convenience. Port of Miami cruise parking at Royal Caribbean Terminal A is $25 per night for sailings of six days or more. 

There are surcharges for oversize vehicles, including vans, RVs, and vehicles over 20 feet in length at an additional $22 per day. These larger vehicles can only be parked in Lot 2, opposite Terminal E. 

Clearance height at garages A, C, D, G, and J varies but can be as low as 6’8″, so if you have an SUV or higher vehicle, you should check the clearance of each garage and level before booking. 

Address: 1015 North America Way, Miami (parking lots are available at each cruise terminal)

• Distance from cruise port:  onsite
• Shuttle?  No
• Cost per day:  From $22

Best Cruise Parking Miami for Disabled Passengers

Passengers with limited mobility will find the onsite Port of Miami cruise parking is the easiest and most convenient. Designated parking spaces are available for those with a disabled permit or license tag.

Standard cruise car parking rates apply; however, there are some exceptions. Vehicles with specialized equipment such as lifts, ramps, adapted hand and foot controls, or any vehicle displaying a State of Florida license plate for disabled veterans may park free. 

• Cost per day:  Free with certain conditions

Alternatively, disabled drivers can use one of the off-site or hotel cruise car parking options in Miami and get a taxi to the port.

Electric Vehicle Charging at Miami Cruise Port

There are currently no charging points for electric vehicles at PortMiami. However, some hotels nearby do offer EV charging stations. 

Best Miami Cruise Parking Options

Several companies offer a convenient and efficient off-site cruise parking service that includes shuttle transfer to and from the cruise port. These parking options are around half the price of the official Port of Miami cruise parking lots. 

Due to the hot sun in Florida, most cruise parking in Miami is in secure covered garages rather than on open lots. 

Premier Cruise Parking

If you are taking a longer cruise and want to keep your car out of the searing Florida sunshine,  Premier Cruise Parking  offers convenient Miami port cruise parking in a new cruise port parking facility at the MET3 parking garage in downtown Miami.

The garage allows cruisers to self-park. Clearance height is just 7 feet, which is unsuitable for RVs and larger vehicles. Premier Cruise parking costs $13 per night plus fees and taxes, so a 7-night cruise will cost $99 total. 

The cost includes a continuous complimentary shuttle service to and from Miami Cruise Port in a brand-new fleet of vehicles. The shuttle service runs from 7.30 am to 3.30 pm on cruise days and includes max of four passengers free per vehicle.

• Address:  Met3 Parking Garage, 250 SE 3rd Ave, Miami
• Distance from cruise port:  2.7 miles
• Shuttle?  Free

Cheapest Miami Cruise Parking at the Airport

If you are driving to Miami and need convenient cruise parking, one of the best places to find secure parking is at Miami International Airport, just 7 miles from the Port of Miami.

Worth Checking:  What to Know About Miami Cruise Port Car Rental

What’s more, most cruise lines run regular shuttle services between the airport and the cruise port so it pays to think outside the box. Even if you’re arriving by car, you can still make use of these cruise parking services!

Getting to the Port of Miami Cruise Terminals

If you are driving to Miami from north/central Florida or from out of state, use the I-95 S, which runs down the east coast of Florida.

You can also opt for the  Florida Turnpike  which is a quieter option with regular tolls. It runs for 340 miles from Ocala in North Central Florida to Miami before dividing.

Ignore the Homestead Extension Florida Turnpike (HEFT) and join the I-95 at Golden Glades for the most direct route. Follow signs for the Port Miami Tunnel and continue to your designated Port of Miami cruise parking.

When arranging your Miami cruise port parking, make sure you know which terminal you will be sailing from and choose parking that is convenient to that location.

The Port of Miami has nine cruise terminals, with two more planned for completion in 2024. Terminals A-G are all located along North Cruise Boulevard, Miami, FL 33132. Once at the port, follow the local signs to your cruise terminal or onsite cruise parking lot.

How to Get to the Cruise Terminal from the Parking Lot

Most hotels and cruise parking lots serving the Port of Miami have their own cruise shuttle service. Taxis are widely available in Miami, but they can be expensive. Taxi fares between the Port of Miami and Bay Harbor Islands (14 miles) can cost around $100 in slow traffic conditions.

Express Shuttle  could be a better solution. For one fixed price they offer private shuttle vans and share-ride services between the port, hotels and Miami Airport (where long-term cruise parking can be found at affordable rates).

Using a private vehicle service could work out cheaper and faster for groups than paying a per-head fee for a shuttle bus.

You can even book a private shuttle service to provide a shore-side Meet and Greet service. Call for a personal quote for this private transfer option to and from your cruise parking in Miami.

How much is parking at the Miami cruise port?

Onsite Miami port cruise parking costs from $22 per night ($25 at Terminal A) with surcharges for oversize vehicles at an additional $22 per day. Veterans and some disabled drivers that meet certain conditions can park free.

What’s the closest parking lot to PortMiami?

The closest cruise parking at PortMiami is onsite. There are cruise parking garages serving all terminals.

Where to park for a Carnival cruise in Miami?

Carnival Cruise Line currently uses Miami cruise terminals D and E. There are onsite parking lots close to both these terminals. Book online via the official Port Miami website.

Is it safe to park near the Port of Miami?

The area around the Miami cruise port is generally safe for parking. The official Miami cruise port parking is secure.

Royal Caribbean’s Terminal A

Cruise Terminal A – the Crown of Miami –  was built specifically for Royal Caribbean in 2018, enabling it to handle Royal’s largest ships with the latest technology for an expedited check-in process.

Royal Caribbean’s Icon of Seas has its home port in Miami. The Titanic was once the world’s largest cruise ship. Over five times the size of the Titanic, the Icon of the Seas is over 1000 feet long and 20 decks tall.

Its 55 foot onboard waterfall is the largest waterpark at sea. Powered by liquefied natural gas (LNG), the Icon of the Seas will reduce its impact on port of Miami, but will also have a shoreside power connection that will allow it to plug into the electric grid while docked in port. 

Norwegian’s Terminal B

Cruise Terminal B – the Pearl of Miami – was built for Norwegian Cruise Line and opened in 2021 and can accommodate ships carrying as many as 5000 passengers.

Miami Cruise Terminals C, D & E have been built with mega-ships holding up to 5000 passengers. In order to move passengers through the terminal as quickly as possible, the highest-technology in screening is available, as well as a conveyor system, similar to an airport, to retrieve your luggage when you disembark.

Carnival’s Terminal F

Carnival’s expansion to Miami’s Terminal F broke ground in early 2021 in preparation for Carnival’s newest ship set to debut in 2022 – the Carnival Celebration.  Here’s a video of the proposed terminal renovations:

Terminal G is one of Miami’s landmarks with the iconic sails:

Miami Cruise Terminal J was built with smaller luxury cruise line passengers in mind – Azamara, Regent Seven Seas & Oceania.

Miami Weather

Miami enjoys warm weather all year ’round, with highs reaching into the 70s and 80s. Hats and sunblock are highly recommended even during cloudy days. The humidity can be a bit stifling during the summer months, particularly for those accustomed to dry heat. June is the rainiest month of the year.

Cruise passengers traveling to Miami should be aware that the city–as is the entire state of Florida–is located in the hurricane belt. Because storms and hurricanes are common during the months between early June and the end of November, it is advisable to purchase travel insurance when traveling to and from the area during this period.

Airports near Miami cruise port

Miami International Airport is just a short drive — about 20 to 40 minutes, depending on traffic — from the cruise port. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport is an alternative, and the drive to PortMiami from there takes about an hour.

Tons of airlines fly to MIA from U.S. gateways, including Alaska Airlines, American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Frontier Airlines, JetBlue, Southwest Airlines, Spirit Airlines, Sun Country and United Airlines.

If you'd prefer to fly through FLL, your choices include Alaska, Allegiant Air, American, Delta, Frontier, JetBlue, Silver Airways, Southwest, Spirit and United.

There are sometimes buy one, get one free airfare opportunities when flying to these airports. Consider the Alaska Airlines Visa Signature® credit card and get a Companion Fare certificate on the card's anniversary. The certificate allows a companion to fly with you for $99 (plus taxes and fees from $23) each account anniversary after you spend $6,000 or more on purchases within the prior anniversary year. It's valid on all Alaska Airlines flights booked on alaskaair.com.

You can also bring a companion along for free (actually, just the cost of the ticket's taxes) if you have the Southwest Companion Pass . Delta also offers a companion certificate via several of its American Express-branded credit cards.

Outbound flight times don't always dovetail perfectly with your cruise line's disembarkation time, so you might find yourself with time to kill at the airport.

Make sure you carry a credit card with airport lounge access as a benefit. The Chase Sapphire Reserve® gives you access to Priority Pass lounges, while The Platinum Card® from American Express will open the door to the Amex Centurion Lounge at MIA .

How to get to the Miami cruise port

There are many ways to get from the Miami airport to the cruise port, including:

Cruise line transfers

You can usually buy a transfer between the airport and the cruise terminal (or your hotel) directly from your cruise line. Sometimes, this is reserved for travelers who've purchased their airfare from the cruise line, but you or your travel agent can call to ask if you can buy the transfers a la carte.

For example, Carnival Cruise Line offers transportation between both MIA ($22.99 per person) and FLL ($36.99 per person) and PortMiami on embarkation day. The line says your plane should arrive no later than noon (for MIA) or 11:30 a.m. (for FLL) on embarkation day.

Hotel shuttles

Select hotels near both MIA and PortMiami offer shuttle service to the port. Free transfers are less common than they once were. Inquire when you make your reservations. For an idea of the transfer cost, the Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Miami Brickell Downtown offers a shuttle to PortMiami for $8 per person.

Independent airport shuttle from Miami airport to the cruise port

A variety of local companies operate shared and private van shuttles and limo services from both MIA and FLL to area hotels and the port. Consider vendors like Express Shuttle Miami, which offers shared rides for around $15 per person from MIA and $25 per person from FLL.

Prices will go up for private rides and depending on the number of passengers in your party and the type of vehicle requested (i.e., sedan, SUV, van, etc.).

Independent van/car services

Car and van services also offer private pick-up and drop-off. The fare from MIA to PortMiami is about $100 for a standard vehicle that accommodates three people. Add $20 if you need a child car seat. A van accommodating up to 10 people is priced around $150.

Taxis and ride-hailing services

Hailing a taxi to take you to PortMiami is simple. Taxi stands are on the arrival (ground) level of the airport (outside baggage claim).

While there used to be a flat rate fare to the cruise port, that's no longer the case. You'll need to pay by the meter. The rate is $2.95 for the first 1/6 mile then $0.85 for each additional 1/6 mile up to one mile; then, it's $0.55 for each 1/6 mile thereafter. Waiting time is $0.40 per minute. (There is a $2 fee for originating from the airport or PortMiami.)

"A minimum fare of $15 is established for trips originated at MIA or the Port of Miami, regardless of what the meter reading shows. If the meter shows a number greater than $15, then the greater number shown on the meter shall be paid," according to Miami-Dade County.

Ride-hailing services such as Uber and Lyft are also an option. Pickup zones are on level 1, arrivals.

UberX can run around $20 and UberXL around $30. Premier and Premier SUV cars can run around $35-55. All prices can vary during traffic or high-demand times. The Uber ride from FLL will be more expensive: around $40 for Uber X and $65 for UberXL. Premier and Premier SUV cars run from $80-100 from FLL.

Public transportation from nearby airports or hotel district

From MIA: Board Metrorail's Orange Line (look for signs to the Metrorail Train Station) to Downtown Miami, which will take less than 30 minutes. The fare is $2.25 per person. It's about a 1 1/2-mile walk from the Freedom Tower station to the port, so you'll want to grab an Uber or taxi from there. Or take the Miami Trolley Coral Way route (free) all the way to the port. You can track the trolley's location in real-time with this handy interactive map .

From FLL: Take the Tri-Rail commuter train to MIA ($3.75 per person on weekdays and $5 per person on weekends). Then board Metrorail's Orange Line ($2.25 per person) and head downtown to the Freedom Tower stop. Finally, board the free Coral Way Route Trolley and disembark at PortMiami.

Miami cruise port parking

On-site parking

There are parking garages at seven Miami cruise terminals, plus surface lots at terminals D and E. Each lettered parking facility corresponds with the terminal of the same name with the exception of the "K" parking garage, which is closest to Terminal J.

If you're driving an over-length vehicle (RV or vehicle with trailer), head to Surface Lot E, which has extra-large spots. Extra fees apply (see below). On embarkation day, the parking facilities are open and staffed by a parking attendant from 6 a.m. to 5 p.m.

You may drop off your luggage at the terminal before parking. A free shuttle runs from each parking facility to the terminal. Security patrols all parking garages and lots.

Parking starts at $22 per night. Royal Caribbean's Terminal A Garage charges a higher rate of $35 per day.

Accepted modes of payment include cash and major credit cards (but not debit cards). However, Garage J is prepaid only (pay when you arrive), and vehicles need to display a special decal throughout the duration of the cruise.

Park-and-cruise

Some hotels in the area, such as the InterContinental at Doral Miami, sell packages that include a hotel stay and parking for the length of your cruise. Others offer cheap paid parking for the Miami cruise port in their lots (even if you're not staying at the hotel), with prices ranging from $6 to $15 per day. Just factor in the time and money you'll need to travel from the hotel's parking lot to the port and vice versa.

What's the best parking option for the Miami cruise port? It depends on your preferences. For the convenience of being right at the cruise port, choose an on-site lot. To save a few bucks, park at a nearby lot or hotel and commute from there to your cruise terminal.

Hilton hotels near Miami cruise port

For a quick overnight before a cruise, we like the Hampton Inn & Suites by Hilton Miami/Brickell Downtown (41,000 to 70,000 Hilton Honors points per night).

It's in a fantastic location with easy access to the free Metromover that can take you to places like the Bayside Marketplace (which is also walkable).

The hotel has several on-site restaurants and is near plenty of others; it also has a shuttle to the port for about $10 per passenger. The chain's free breakfast is a great way to start the day; it'll hold you over until you get on the ship and can enjoy a leisurely lunch before sailaway.

If you have kids or additional time, the JW Marriott Turnberry Resort & Spa (starting at 40,000 points per night), farther out in Aventura, is a terrific bet since it has its own water park and lazy river.

If you're young and traveling with friends, the Moxy South Beach (starting at 30,000 points per night) was designed just for you. While it might not have all the amenities more upscale hotels have, it's got great views and rooms with quad bunk beds.

Non-points hotels

Miami is packed with all sorts of hotels that don't participate in a traditional loyalty program.

Things to do near Miami cruise port

Miami is one of Florida's most popular vacation destinations and the embarkation point for major cruise lines. You could spend weeks here and still not see everything. If you want to tack on some time before or after your cruise, here are some things to do in Miami.

Hit the beach

There are 35 miles of beautiful beaches fronting Miami, from Sunny Isles Beach in the north to South Beach at the southern end. Throw in Key Biscayne and a few other islands and you have a plethora of choices.

How far is the cruise port from the beach? PortMiami is on Dodge Island, so the closest stretch of sand — and a very trendy one — is South Beach. It's about 10 minutes by taxi.

If you're more interested in bird-watching than people-watching, head south to Key Biscayne Beach or Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Park (1200 Brandon Boulevard, Key Biscayne). At the tip of Key Biscayne, it has 400 acres of nature hemmed in by a 1-mile beach.

You can rent bikes to ride the trails or enjoy the day at the beach. Note that the 1820s lighthouse and fishing piers are temporarily closed. The drive to Key Biscayne from the port will take 25 to 40 minutes via taxi, depending on traffic.

Tour sassy South Beach

Even if you don't want to go to the beach, you still need to pay South Beach a visit to get a sense of what makes Miami tick. Stroll along Ocean Drive and get lost in the Art Deco Historic District, or enjoy some shopping, dining and gallery-hopping at the famous pedestrian Lincoln Road Mall.

To get that perfect selfie with Miami as the backdrop, head to South Pointe Park and Pier, where you can get a view of not only South Beach but also Fisher Island, PortMiami and Downtown Miami. If your visit includes an overnight stay, this is also the place to experience Miami's nightlife at its best.

Take the kids to the science museum

Families will want to make the 10-minute drive from the port to visit the Frost Museum of Science (1101 Biscayne Boulevard). Here, your family can marvel at the 500,000-gallon aquarium, kid-friendly touch tanks and the 250-seat 3D planetarium. There are also exhibits on the solar system, physics of flight, biology, light and lasers and more.

Visit the Wynwood Arts District

If you're into contemporary art, explore NW Second Avenue and its side streets. This is basically an outdoor museum with a variety of colorful wall murals. As you walk and discover the neighborhood's art, you can stop at craft breweries, art galleries and trendy restaurants and cafes. Several companies offer informative walking tours.

Shopping near Miami cruise port

If you need to stock up on some last-minute cruise supplies, PortMiami is near two major shopping centers: Bayside Marketplace and Brickell City Centre.

Bayside Marketplace (401 Biscayne Blvd) is an open-air shopping and entertainment complex on the waterfront. If you're looking to pick up sunscreen and shampoo for your cruise, there are a few drugstores here, including CVS (200 Biscayne Blvd).

You can walk to Bayside Marketplace from PortMiami, but it's easier to take a taxi (about 15 minutes) or get on the free Coral Way Trolley and disembark at the Biscayne Boulevard stop.

If you have high-end shopping on your mind, head on over to Brickell City Centre (701 S. Miami Ave), where four floors and more than 120 stores are dedicated to designer labels and luxury. The Saks Fifth Avenue here is 107,000 square feet.

There's also a dine-in movie theater, CMX. For restaurants, there are many to choose from. We like Luke's Lobster, Pubbelly Sushi and Quito la Huella (Latin American farm-to-table organic fare).

To get to Brickell City Centre, take the free Metromovers Brickell Loop and exit at the Brickell City Centre station. Or, board a free Miami Trolley: the Brickell Trolley if you're coming from the south or the Biscayne Trolley if you're coming from the north.

If you're staying in Brickell before your cruise, there are plenty of drugstores near the neighborhood's many hotels.

Travel | madeline soto: stephan sterns charged with first-degree murder, things to do, subscriber only, travel | port canaveral chalks up record month amid growing cruise demand.

Port Canaveral saw just under 800,000 cruise passengers move on and off its ships in March as part of a record year that keeps topping expectations.

That set a one-month record for the port with an average of nearly 25,600 people a day around 93 cruise ship calls. March is traditionally one of the strongest months of the year for the port with its spring break traffic.

It also marked the halfway point of the fiscal year that began in October 2023. Six months in, the port has seen 3.9 million passenger movements from 479 ship calls.

“The industry itself is very, very strong right now,” said Port CEO Capt. John Murray at the port commission meeting on Wednesday. “There’s a lot of expansion plans. The companies are starting to reorder ships again after the pandemic.”

That includes more ships from Norwegian Cruise Line, which has been sending its new vessels to Port Canaveral as they debut including next year’s Norwegian Aqua.

“So a lot of great things, a lot of great things, a lot of enthusiasm and I can say that the industry is 110% of what it was prior to the pandemic,” Murray said. “They are back and booming right now. So we’re fortunate to be taking advantage of that here at the port.”

Operating revenue for the year is already at $98 million, which is $3.6 million above budget. It also means the record projection of $187 million in operating revenue through the end of the fiscal year in September is likely to get surpassed as well.

Ship capacity is determined to be at 100% if each stateroom is occupied by two passengers, so ships sailing with families, for instance, will push capacity above 100% and in turn increase revenue for the port from the cruise lines as well as add to an uptick in parking charges.

Royal Caribbean to send massive Utopia of the Seas to Port Canaveral

One of the big drivers has been the addition of a second Oasis-class vessel by Royal Caribbean so that the port hosts two of the largest cruise ships in the world.

Allure of the Seas joined Wonder of the Seas last fall to begin short three- and four-night sailings to the Bahamas, and will continue that until the debut of Royal’s new Utopia of the Seas this summer. Since arriving, it has added more than 650,000 passenger movements to the port’s growing tally.

The port has been home port to 13 ships from Disney Cruise Line, Royal Caribbean, Carnival, Norwegian and MSC Cruises, and is set to welcome its first ships from both Princess Cruises and Celebrity Cruises this fall.

Port Canaveral plots timeline to take over marina for new cruise terminal

Right now it has six cruise terminals, but is beginning the work to eventually build a seventh later this decade. During an interview earlier in April at the Seatrade Cruise Global conference in Miami Beach, Murray said the key to growth for the port will be a shift in how the port gives access to each terminal, such as how it plans to operate its seventh terminal.

“It’s going to be multiuser. It’s not going to be a single-use facility. That’s going to be how our concept of operations would be going forward,” Murray said. “The only way you’re going to get good utilization of a terminal is if you can put multiple brands in there and not have it dedicated to just one user.”

That’s how it runs several of its terminals now including Disney Cruise Line at Cruise Terminal 8 and Carnival Cruise Line at its newest terminal, Cruise Terminal 3.

“If they’ve got seven days a week at one terminal and they’re only using three, maybe four days, that’s not high utilization,” Murray said. “Yet, it’s a facility that we’ve got blocked out that we’re not getting any benefit from it for the investment we’ve made.”

He notes Cruise Terminal 10, which gets used by three brands, gets used six days a week.

Murray said with newer and bigger ships on order from all the major lines, the demand is just going to continue to spike for parking space at Florida’s big three ports.

“I think the point now for all of the major brands is finding somewhere to operate,” Murray said. “Because there’s only Miami, [and] we all know how full Miami is; Everglades, [which has] limited capacity or opportunity for growth; and we have more land, but you know, it’s not all going to get committed to the cruise industry.”

“So the question is, how do we allow more opportunities for the cruise lines to operate? This is one — get high utilization out of the terminal.”

11 Reason To Sail on Cruises From Galveston

I n no uncertain terms, a cruise port makes all the difference regarding your entire vacation. After all, the location of your departure sets the tone for your trip moving forward, determining which destinations you’ll reach once you’re on the high seas.

While specific destinations like Miami or Canaveral boast unique strengths, something might also be said for the Port of Galveston, Texas. A smaller port overlooking the Gulf of Mexico, Galveston may not be the largest or busiest destination from which to depart. Yet, there are plenty of amicable reasons to look into this idyllic Texan island for your next cruise-going experience.

1. Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Disney Offer Cruises From Galveston

Looking at it plainly, Galveston has three cruise terminals making up its port. In contrast, far larger alternatives, like the Port of Miami, have eleven terminals. Because of this, Galveston unfortunately cannot house many of the industry’s prestigious cruise lines. However, the port’s terminals support several large-scale cruise corporations, with Carnival, Royal Caribbean, Princess, Norwegian, MSC, and Disney Cruises departing from Galveston regularly.

2. The Nearby Cruise Destinations Are Well Worth It

Admittedly, inevitable drawbacks are attached to cruises from Galveston. Considering how much farther west it is than ports in Florida or along the East Coast, most cruise lines out of Galveston cannot travel to their company’s private islands as many are in the Eastern Caribbean. However, Galveston’s location along the Gulf of Mexico has its distinct perks, including ready access to the Western Caribbean and parts of South and Central America. Though some guests might regret losing a chance at CocoCay, it’s hard to be upset when trekking along the shores of Mexico, Honduras, or Belize.

3. It’s Easier To Navigate Than Larger Ports

There’s no simple answer when it comes to determining the total cost of cruises from Galveston over any other port in the U.S. Like most ports, the final cost of the cruise depends on numerous factors, including the time of year you’re sailing, the location of your cabin, and the cruise line you plan on traveling with. However, the convenience of navigating the port itself makes Galveston a perfect option for anyone new to cruise vacations. Avoiding the large-scale crowds and tedious boarding lines as other major ports, Galveston remains a hassle-free destination for most novice travelers out there.

4. galveston is conveniently located in the central u.s..

Given Galveston’s distinct location in eastern Texas , it’s one of the most readily accessible ports for travelers across the U.S. Located in the heart of America, travelers from the Western U.S. will have just as easy time reaching it as vacationers from the Midwest or East Coast. After all, who wants to sit on a lengthy plane ride to reach their port of call? Also, Galveston lacks the same high value of traffic as Miami or other popular ports, making it relatively hassle-free to reach.

5. The Port Terminal Is Reasonably Close to the Airport

Houston’s William P. Hobby Airport is the closest airport to Galveston. Roughly 41 miles northwest of the port, travelers can easily navigate from the airport to their cruise terminal in under an hour. Galveston is also close to several major cities, making it an option, albeit a farther one, for anyone flying into Austin or Dallas. However, given Houston’s short driving distance to Galveston, William P. Hobby Airport is your best bet for air travel.

6. The Boarding Process Is Quick and Seamless

As mentioned above, Galveston doesn’t have the same volume of passengers flooding through its port as Miami, Canaveral, or Port Everglades. As a result, boarding a ship is comparatively tamer—especially since the port opened up its third and latest terminal in 2022. Having been constructed in the past two decades and carefully refurbished, these terminals are in fantastic shape, making the onboarding process much more efficient for vacationers. The terminals also come equipped with innovative new features, with Terminal 3 offering mobile check-in and state-of-the-art facial recognition devices.

7. There Are Plenty of Hotels Nearby

Another notable feature of Galveston is the number of hotels near the port. (Because let’s face it: what’s more accessible than simply waking up, hopping in your car, and practically walking onto the ship without worrying about losing track of time?) What’s more, many of the hotels in the Galveston area have special offers for anyone traveling onboard a cruise ship. These offers include free or discounted parking rates and a helpful shuttle that ferry passengers back and forth from the hotel to the ship. While several hotels in Galveston have these amenities, some of the best include the Hilton Galveston Island Resort and the San Luis Resort .

8. Parking Is Easy

Don’t let Galveston’s size fool you—the port itself has plenty of options when it comes to parking. As previously suggested, anyone staying at a nearby hotel might want to consider leaving their car parked there and taking a shuttle, taxi, or Uber over to their terminal. Additionally, travelers can reserve a space in the port’s parking lot ahead of their trip. These parking spaces are safe and secure, and port employees will assist with any luggage brought aboard on cruises from Galveston.

9. Galveston Itself Is a Beautiful Place To Visit

The main reason we believe you should depart from Galveston on your next cruise is the opportunity you’ll have to see what it has to offer. Like most major cities, there’s plenty to do and see around town, with every prospective sight catering to travelers’ interests. For those interested in shopping, the Strand Historical District has plenty of independently owned stores that feature everything from odd tchotchkes to essential beach items. Galveston’s famous Moody Gardens is an educational park built around natural wonders such as exotic sea life, immaculate flowers, roaming monkeys, and sloths.

10. You’re Bound To Find Some Great Last-Minute Deals

As previously mentioned, Galveston is a more scaled-down port than Miami or Port Canaveral, but its three terminals still receive cruise ships constantly. Because of this constantly moving schedule, most travelers will find it incredibly easy to find last-minute deals on select cruises from Galveston—often days before the ship is booked to leave. Sure, it may not be practical for those traveling from longer distances to book something last-minute. Yet these last-minute deals are well worth it for anyone within a short distance of Galveston.

11. Galveston Is Steeped in Rich Maritime History

Galveston is a city rich in history, having first been settled by Indigenous Natives of the Akokisa and Karankawa tribes before the Europeans arrived in the 1600s. Over the next several centuries, Galveston became a hub for maritime trade, eventually attracting such notable figures as French buccaneer Jean Lafitte. All that being said, history buffs will delight at the chance to visit Galveston, taking in some of the numerous historical sights around town—like Lafitte’s personal hideaway at Maison Rouge or the Michael B. Menard House, named after one of Galveston’s original American settlers. Even those who don’t care for history will find these areas fascinating.
