We are a Midwestern family of four with two young kids (8yo & 6yo) now two days removed from our ship with everything still fresh in mind. Make no mistake – our vacation was so much fun. However, in hindsight, I wish I knew a few things beforehand that made our vacation simply meh rather than amazing for these sailors.
Travel:
-Fort Lauderdale Airport is nice enough, but the pickup area for shuttles, busses, taxis and Ubers/Lyfts is a free for all. It is jam packed and crowded with everyone else trying to get to their hotel or cruise ship.
