Limo Service Lantana to Fort Lauderdale Airport
Updated by the Sky Limo Service dispatch team

Palm Beach International sits nine miles from Lantana. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood sits forty-six. And yet a steady share of our Lantana pickups head south past the close airport to the far one — because FLL’s flight board is three times deeper and its low-cost fares routinely save a family more than the longer ride costs. This guide covers that southbound run properly.
The airport decision, in numbers
| PBI | FLL | |
|---|---|---|
| Distance from Lantana | ~9 miles | ~46 miles |
| Ride time | 15-20 min | 55-70 min |
| Airlines | Fewer, legacy-leaning | Southwest, JetBlue, Spirit, plus internationals |
| Typical fare advantage | — | Often $50-150 per ticket on popular routes |
| Terminal experience | Small and fast | Big, four terminals, busier |
The rule we give customers: one traveler, similar fares — use PBI and keep your morning simple. Three or four tickets with FLL running cheaper — the fare savings buy the transfer with money left over.
Getting down there
From Lantana the driver takes Hypoluxo or Lantana Road to I-95 and runs south about 45 minutes to the airport exits. Florida’s Turnpike is the alternate; it costs a little distance but dodges I-95’s rough patches through Delray and Boca when the traffic maps turn red. Weekday 4-7 p.m. is the window we pad — an extra 20 minutes on the schedule beats an apology at the gate.
Terminal knowledge saves a lap of the loop road: Terminal 1 for Southwest and United, 2 for Delta, 3 for JetBlue and American, 4 for Spirit and most international departures.
Fares and vehicles
At 46 miles this trip prices in the 35-60 mile band — fixed quotes from $129 in a business sedan (three passengers, three bags). The SUV (six and six) runs about 20 percent more; the 14-passenger Sprinter about 80 percent more and turns a multi-family cruise-and-fly trip into one vehicle instead of a convoy. Tolls, gratuity, and waiting time are inside every quote, and the price you see at booking is the price you pay. Current numbers live on the pricing page.
Versus rideshare: on a quiet Tuesday you might save $20 with an app. On a Saturday cruise-turnover morning, surge pricing on this corridor can double the app fare past ours — and the fixed quote never knew the difference.
Return legs and late flights
Coming home into FLL, the driver is tracking your flight before you board it. Meet and greet at baggage claim is standard, and the first 60 minutes after landing are included — enough to cover Terminal 4 customs on an average day. The 46 miles home are a lot more pleasant when the car was never in doubt.
