Taxi vans at Miami airport?
 
There will be 6 of us going on a cruise (6 adults, 6 children), and I'm hoping that their are taxi vans at the Miami airport or in miami. We need to get from the Airport to the downtown Hyatt, the Hyatt to the pier the next day, and then from the pier back to the airport at the end of the cruise. <BR><BR>I would love to be able to have us in 1 taxi instead of 2. does anyone know if these taxi vans are available in Miami and how I would reserve one? Thanks.

Hi Nina,<BR><BR>We just went on a cruise out of Miami, yes they have taxi vans. In fact we didn't even reserve on, they pull up on the curb outside of the baggage claim, you may have to wait a couple of minutes as the taxis come and go as they fill up but there were several that pulled up in a matter of minutes.

nina - I don't think they make a taxi big enough to handle six adults, six children and all required luggage for a seven night cruise. I'm thinking you'd better plan on two mini-vans.

OOps! I meant 6 total, 3 adults, 3 children. Thanks alyssa, glad to hear that they're available.

Hi Nina,<BR><BR>After you price the taxi just go to one of the many airport shuttle desks on the sidewalk and price them. You definitely will need two cabs but the shuttle will take your entire group.<BR><BR>Paul<BR><BR>
