Staying in the US
Joining a cruise
Transit to a non US city
Fly drive passenger
im only going for a holiday???
am i fly drive ??
are you picking up a car at the airport and driving to your villa ? That is what we did and so I put down fly/drive and that seemed ok because it wasn't queried.

Yes you're thinking too much into it.
Are you going to Florida, staying in Florida for the whole of your holiday? Then that means you are staying in the US.
We recently flew into New York, drove to Atlantic City, drove to Washington then flew to Florida BUT we stayed in the US.
If you were going on a cruise, you'd be joining a cruise.
If you were passing through US to go to say to Mexico you'd be Transit to non US City.
hope this helps.

Probably.[msnsmile2]
We always put 'Staying in the US'
Have I been ticking the wrong box all this time then, should I have ticked "staying in the US" rather than "fly/drive" ???

Yep!
I too always put staying in the US. To be honest the Fly/Drive thing seems redundant to me, but I suppose in the dim and distant past the US Immigration had their reasons for asking...?
