I’m trying to save my son a few bucks if possible. He’s flying into FLL on 1/3. Arrival time is early PM. He’s need to find his way to the Bahia Mar Hotel on Seabreeze Blvd. Are there any options/shuttles that would be less costly than a taxi, which I understand would run abot $30.00?

Thanks.

Supershuttle is about half that:

What time (roughly) does early PM mean? I might be able to give him a ride. Feel free to send me a PM if you don’t want to discuss it here. I do work that day, so no promises until I know the timing.

I think you can use the public bus system, if he’s comfortable with that. How much luggage will be have? I’ll do a little research.

ETA: I spoke to a friend who used to spend a LOT of time on the bus system. He says take the 1 bus from the airport that’s going toward central terminal Get off at 17th Street Causeway and take the 40 towards the Galleria. It goes right by Bahia Mar.
