Arrival and First Day in Miami

Your Arrival in Miami

You can arrange for an airport pick-up from Miami International Airport (MIA) or Orlando International Airport (MCO) with EC. A driver will meet you at the airport, so look out for him holding up a sign with your name on it.

If you require an airport transfer, you must let us know seven days in advance. The 2012 charge for a one-way transfer is $110 for MIA.

If you do not use an EC transfer, you can find prices and times for public transportation to and from MIA here.
