Transportation from the City Center to Miami International Airport
There are many options for transportation from Miami city center to the airport.
The most preferred ones are to travel by bus and metrorail. You can reach the airport in approximately 30 minutes by buses 7, 37, 42, 57, 133, 236 and 238 departing from the city center and airport express services. You can reach Miami International Airport in a short time by taking the subway from the Metrorail station to the airport. When you go to the airport by metro, you can reach the terminal where your flight is located for free with MIA Mover.
If you have a lot of luggage or 3-4 people, taxi, private transfer and car rental options may be more comfortable for transportation to the airport.
Transportation from Fort de France Airport to the City Center
Fort de France, officially known as Martinique Aimé Césaire International Airport, is the main airport of the French overseas territory of the island of Martinique. Although this is another country, it is actually a part of France. However, even if you have a Schengen visa obtained from the French Consulate, you still need to obtain a Martinique visa.
Although the distance between the city center and the airport is only 7 km, there is no public transport operating in this direction. The easiest way to get to the city center is to take a taxi. You can see the taxi rank as soon as you exit the D gate on the arrivals floor. All vehicles here are official and all have taximeters. You pay the day rate for taxis between 06:00 and 19:00, and the night rate after 19:00.
Another way to call a taxi is to use the official taxi app called 972 Taxi. Since this app is recommended on the airport's official page, it can be considered reliable.
You can also see the minibuses, which is a common practice in the Caribbean, at Fort de France Airport. Since these minibuses are usually minivans, they take off when they take 8 or 9 passengers. There are no specific stops, just tell the driver where you want to get off. If you are carrying a very large suitcase, they may ask you to take a taxi instead of a minibus. Dolmuses operate only during the daytime and without a specific timetable.
You can arrange a private transfer from your hotel or online. Thus, when you get off your plane, you will be greeted by someone holding your name and you can go to the city center effortlessly.
Renting a car is also a good option, as there are many places to see in Martinique and the infrastructure of the island is also very good. You can find the offices of many car rental companies, including reliable companies such as Avis and Hertz, at the airport. You need to pay attention to the car rental agreements in all conditions.
