    Miami

    Looking at next years holiday we have found a way to hopefully afford to go[msnsmile2] by flying into Miami (looks like could save £1000 on flights!) so can we hire through US Car Hire to pick up/drop off at Miami? Thanks

    It's an easy journey to Orlando from Miami up the Florida Turnpike, so its well worth considering Miami.

    As Ellie says, the journey from Miami to Orlando is very easy. We often fly into Miami and drive up the Turnpike. Well worth it if you can save such a lot on the flights!

    I was in Miami earlier this week and the new inter-terminal train is now up and running. It will eventually connect to the new shared car rental facility which is a big improvement from what went before.

    The only thing I would advise you thinking about is whether you want to do what is a long drive to Orlando after such a long flight, especially if you're travelling at a time of day/year when the traffic will be very busy and it might also be dark. It really isn't as easy as some might suggest.

    Personally, I'd pay what is often very little more to fly up to Orlando from Miami.

    Last time i did it, it took about 4 hours. As Katys Grandad says, it isn't straight forward especially if its your first time driving in Miami. Miami is a very busy and at times difficult place to navigate, more so if its dark.

    If you are not worried about going at full out speed Highway 27 is a much more relaxing drive and easy to get to form the Airport. Took us just over 3.5 hours with a stop for food.
