15-25 min to downtownCurbside or meet-and-greetFlight tracking included

FLL is the closest major airport to downtown Fort Lauderdale, and it is usually the best choice for local business travel. Your chauffeur meets you curbside on the lower arrivals level at the designated ground transportation door. Chauffeur Service Fort Lauderdale tracks your flight through our Fort Lauderdale dispatch team and dispatches a vetted local affiliate. The chauffeur texts or calls when your flight lands and again when positioned at the pickup door. Look for a professionally dressed driver holding a name sign beside a black sedan or SUV. The chauffeur will assist with luggage and load it into the vehicle. FLL has four separate terminals, each with its own limo pickup zone on the arrivals level, so always confirm your terminal when booking. Curbside enforcement is strict at FLL, especially during peak cruise turnover at nearby Port Everglades. The airport sits just west of the Intracoastal Waterway and connects quickly to I-595, I-95, and Florida's Turnpike.

How much does sedan service from FLL cost?

Sedan transfers from FLL start at $130 for downtown Fort Lauderdale. A ride to Las Olas Boulevard starts at a written flat rate. A trip to Fort Lauderdale Beach starts at a written flat rate. Rides to Weston start at $120. Service to Boca Raton starts at $130. Hollywood Beach transfers start at a written flat rate. These rates cover one-way sedan transport in a late-model vehicle with a professional driver. Rates do not include gratuity, tolls, parking, or additional stops. SUVs, sprinter vans, and mini-coaches are available at higher rates on request.

How long is the drive from FLL to Fort Lauderdale neighborhoods?

Most downtown and beach neighborhoods are within 20 minutes of the airport in normal traffic. The table below shows typical drive times from FLL.

Neighborhood	Approx. Distance	Typical Drive Time
Downtown Fort Lauderdale	4 miles	10-15 min
Las Olas	5 miles	12-18 min
Fort Lauderdale Beach	6 miles	15-20 min
Wilton Manors	5 miles	12-18 min
Hollywood Beach	10 miles	20-30 min
Weston	20 miles	30-45 min
Boca Raton	30 miles	40-55 min

Rush-hour traffic on I-95 and Federal Highway can add 10 to 20 minutes during winter season and spring break. Event weekends at the Broward Center or beach concerts can also slow terminal-area exits.

What are the honest limitations of FLL pickup service?

Commercial chauffeured vehicles cannot park unattended at the FLL curb. If your flight is delayed or baggage claim runs long, the chauffeur may need to circle the terminal and re-enter the pickup queue. After a standard grace period, wait-time charges apply. FLL is also a busy cruise port airport, so shuttle buses and rideshare volume can make curbside pickup slower on Friday and Saturday turnover days.

Curbside or meet-and-greet at FLL

Both options are available at every FLL terminal. With curbside pickup, the chauffeur texts when your flight is on the ground, you collect your bags and walk out to the arrivals curb, and the car pulls up to the door you are told. With meet-and-greet, the chauffeur waits near baggage claim holding a name sign, helps with bags and walks you to the car. Meet-and-greet is the better choice for first-time visitors, families with young children and anyone you are booking a ride for. Tell us the airline when you reserve so the chauffeur goes to the right terminal.

Leaving from FLL

For departures, we time the pickup from your flight. FLL is 15 to 25 minutes from downtown in normal traffic, but weekday mornings on I-95 and I-595, cruise turnover weekends near Port Everglades and spring-break traffic on the beach roads all add time. From Boca Raton or Weston, plan on 40 minutes or more before check-in.
