Getting to the city
The cheapest way into Fort Lauderdale from FLL is the local bus network, which links the airport with downtown and the beach areas. Ride-hail and taxi ranks outside the terminals cost more but save time, especially with luggage, while shared shuttles suit groups heading to coastal hotels. Whichever option you choose, allow extra time during morning and evening peaks, keep your terminal details handy, and avoid accepting unofficial rides from anyone approaching you inside the arrivals hall.
