Flight planning

MIA or another South Florida airport

MIA is close to central Miami districts and has extensive international service. Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood (FLL) may suit northern Miami-Dade or Broward destinations but requires a different transfer plan.

Match the airport to the hotel, cruise terminal or onward flight rather than treating all South Florida airports as interchangeable.

Connections and seasonal planning
