luggage storage Miami

dee slack · 17 Feb 19, 10:31 PM

first time cruising from Miami and we have a late afternoon flight on the way home so I was wondering if anyone knows if there's somewhere to store luggage for a few hours after we leave the ship, or even better a forwarding service to the airport for us to collect later?
We don't need to be at the airport until around 2pm so would like to make the most of our last few hours there. TIA

So when I looked a few years back I couldn't find anything really apart from a tour that included luggage storage. This was booked through the cruise itself. If your cruising with Disney this is what I did - disneycruise.disney.go/p...bookings-only/

Other cruises might offer the same. I actually found it fantastic and meant I didn't waste the entire day stuck at the airport

We had the same dilemma and didn't want to be at the airport for ages, so we booked an suv car for 1 day for just �54 inc full tank of fuel, so have room for the luggage and will hit the sawgrass mills shopping before heading to Miami.

thanks, just had a look at our cruise line and they do a tour which could be an option - never even thought to look before, doh!

Also, had another quick look online and even tho' I'm sure I couldn't find anything when I looked last week(!) today I found a site that lists places that store luggage now, but thing we're sold on the ship excursion now - thank you.

thanks, that's a really good idea and if we had a much later flight we'd do that but having to be at the airport for 2pm it wouldn't really be worth it but maybe next time?!

We did this and Alamo only charged us for half a tank of fuel.

It was a really good tour and there were 3 bus routes so you can choose where you go if its a similar one to the one I did.
