PBI to PortMiami at a glance
How PBI pricing works
PBI is outside our published rate table, so every trip gets one fixed, all-inclusive quote per vehicle — gratuity, tolls and fees included, no meter. Call (305) 433-4568 or request a quote online; you will have a price before you book.
When flying into PBI makes sense
- You live in or are visiting Palm Beach County and are flying from there anyway.
- PBI fares are meaningfully cheaper for your group.
- You are combining the cruise with a stay in the Palm Beaches.
Otherwise, MIA (8 miles) or FLL (28 miles) are much closer to the port. Compare MIA and FLL prices.
Timing from PBI on cruise day
Seventy-five miles of I-95 through three counties has a wide range of drive times. We strongly recommend arriving the day before. If you must fly in on sailing day, land by 9:00 AM and expect to leave PBI by 10:00 AM at the latest for an early-afternoon check-in.
