Carnival sails more passengers out of PortMiami than any other line, which means Terminals F and G see the heaviest embarkation-day traffic in the port. Knowing exactly which terminal building your ship uses before you arrive saves you from the guesswork that costs cruisers ten minutes at the curb.
From MIA it's a 30-minute run to the terminal, and we build the pickup around your actual flight landing time rather than a fixed schedule, so a delayed bag claim doesn't turn into a rushed terminal drop-off.
At $129, this transfer is priced for exactly what it is: one vehicle, one driver, straight from your MIA arrival to the Carnival terminal doors, room for the whole party and the luggage that comes with a week at sea.
How much is a private car from Miami International Airport (MIA) to PortMiami – Carnival Cruise Terminal?
The flat rate is $129 one way in a black Chevrolet Suburban, for up to 6 passengers and 6 large bags. The drive is about 30 minutes over roughly 14 miles. The rate covers the whole vehicle, with tolls included. Gratuity is optional.
Pickup Procedure
Your chauffeur meets you curbside at the MIA arrivals level door closest to your baggage carousel. Flight tracked live with 60 minutes free wait from landing, so baggage delays or a slow carousel don't cost you anything.
Curbside pickup with flight tracking is standard. Meet and greet at baggage claim with a name sign is an optional $199 add-on at checkout.

Frequently Asked
What's the fare from MIA to the Carnival terminal?
$129 flat for the transfer, covering the vehicle for your group of up to 6 passengers and 6 bags.
Which terminal does Carnival use at PortMiami?
Terminals F and G. Your driver knows the current terminal assignment and drops you at the correct doors rather than the general port entrance.
How much wait time is included if our flight is delayed?
60 minutes free from wheels-down, tracked live, before any wait charges apply — standard for all MIA airport pickups.
Can you bring a car seat for our kids on embarkation day?
Yes — $49 each for the first two seats and $99 each after that, charged once per booking; just tell us how many and their ages when you book.
How does payment work?
Payment reserves your date. Book more than 72 hours ahead and a 50% deposit reserves it now; 72 hours before pickup, the balance is charged automatically to the payment method you booked with. Book 72 hours or less ahead and checkout collects the whole fare. There's no card processing fee — that's built into the flat rate — and gratuity is optional.
What is the cancellation policy?
Cancel 24+ hours before pickup for a full refund. Inside that window, we retain 25% of the fare; no-shows retain 50% of the fare.
Do you provide child seats?
Yes. Infant, toddler and booster seats are $49 each for the first two and $99 each after that, charged once per booking. Round trips and multi-leg bookings add 50% per additional leg. Request them when you book so they are installed before pickup.
Can you meet us inside the airport?
Yes. Curbside pickup with flight tracking is standard. Meet and greet is an optional $199 add-on, chosen at checkout and charged once per booking. Your chauffeur meets you at baggage claim with a name sign, helps with bags, and walks you to the vehicle. It needs your flight number.
