Does anyone know of the best reliable and economical means of transportation from Ft. Lauderdale Airport to the port area and from the port back to the airport.
I have looked up many on the web, but uncertain as to which is good.
Thanks

Since you posted this on the NCL board I assume you need to get to the Port of Miami. It is about a 45 minute trip on a good day. Cab is going to be $50-$60. The cheapest if there are only 2 of you may be NCL transfers at $20 pp. The bus is a pain in the butt but once you give them your bags at the airport you are done with them.
I don't have a name of reliable car service or shared van service 
If you are coming in a day early a rental car is clearly the best option. I just picked one up in Tampa for $25/day.
