Buyer Beware. Dishonest business practices...(BAIT & SWITCH) At check in they will inform u quoted price only applies to corporate accounts. This is a lie. (GAS SCAM) Our gas was 1/4 full at pick up. Applied a $300 re-fueling fee upon airport return. Luckly we are aware of this scam & took photos of odometer and fuel level at pick up and used it to receive a full refund on our AMX.

Do not rent a car from Budget at Port Everglades. Avis is in the same facility and is just as bad. Go elsewhere. The shuttle never arrived. Everyone had to take a $14 taxi to the office. They were closed!! People were standing outside waiting for them to finally have employees show up. This place is so poorly run. I will never rent from them again and I will be back soon. I’m trying Sixt next time.

Horrible! Over charged for wrong vehicle because Ford had recall. Charged for a full tank when we were given half a tank. Employee was of no help at all! I'd give a zero if I could!

Do not come here if you are getting off a cruise. I’m still waiting for a car after an hour and a half. Terrible, terrible service.

We're sailing on Carnival & dropping the vehicle off at 2520 Miami Rd the morning we depart. Just wondering if anyone can say how often the shuttles run and an estimate on the wait time from drop-off to catching a shuttle to Port Everglades. Thanks.

Angela Cleverdon | Sep 13, 2020

Supposed to run every 30 minutes but we waited 50 minutes and had to call someone but that was when we returned and were picking up a car.

I need a one way rental 1 Dec 2019 from Port Everglades to drop off in Kissimmee area. I see already you have a shuttle to pick up from the port, but do you charge for a one way drop and if not, how do I arrange this rental?

Joanne Kjolsen | Sep 13, 2020
Scott Webber | Sep 13, 2020

It'll be factored into the price when booked online. There wasn't a separate fee when I booked.

If I rent a car at 2520 Miami road, can I drop it off at the airport for returning flight to airport. I would be picking up a car in morning after coming from cruise. Late flight home

there a shuttle from FLL to Port Everglades? 1Fare from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport to Port Everglades is typically around $15. If you purchased an air/sea travel package, transfers are usually included. For a taxi from the Port to downtown Fort Lauderdale, expect to pay about $18 to $20, depending on your destination. 2 yes but call to make sure

can I use my bank debit card to rent a car? I am over 50 under 60 years old.

LINDA WARD | Sep 14, 2018
James Frost | Sep 14, 2018

Look and see if your debit card has a Master Card or Visa logo on it. If it does then the card can be used as a credit or debit card. Your credit line may just be as much as you have in your debit account. I have used my debit both ways, debit, credit. But either way i use it, the money comes right out of the checking account. Rental car companies are a little funny since they are giving you such an expensive item to use. Why not ask the bank if you can use your card both ways like mine, and then if the bank says yes, and you have enough money for thier 200.00 on hold deposit you should be OK. If my bank said yes (it can work either way) then I would call budget and give them the number on the card and see if they accept it. Better to check all the situations than get there and be turned away. Hope this helps.

A bit confused -- I see two addresses for this location. The first is 1515 SE 17th Street, Fort Lauderdale. The other address I see recently is 5320 Miami Road, Fort Lauderdale. Is the first location still "open for business" w/cruise shuttle?

K Magz | Sep 14, 2018
James Frost | Sep 14, 2018

This is a very hard location to find. Their shuttles are small and few. I would not use them agian. I am referring to the 1515 location. The other one i am not sure about. So many locations do not shuttle to the Port, they do not mind the airport, but the Port is a nightmare for them. If you can use Alamo, they have a great location and are known for big shuttles and enough of them. But i would stay away from the 1515 location, no bathrooms available for you to use, very small and you may end up taking a taxi, uber, lyft, or a for pay shuttle that comes by and stops because they know how bad their shuttles are.

Do you shuttle from cruise port to down town federal highway?

Johann Schuster Jr. | Sep 14, 2018
James Frost | Sep 14, 2018

We only saw a shuttle that takes you to about 2 miles away to a large nice rental location for the cruise port or Port Everglades to be sure we are talking about the same port, I'm sure we are. I don't know of any shuttles that run all the way downtown to Ft. Lauderdale. A taxi will cost alot, and cant rely on Lyft or Uber since Port Everglades is such a nightmare to get in and out of, neverending construction. Hopes this helps, and maybe the big Budget only a couple miles away is the one you are looking for.

My drop off location for Budget says: "Fort Lauderdale Quay". Do you have the exact address? (For a GPS) Thanks
