About Renting a Car at Miami Airport
Miami International Airport (MIA) is one of the USA's busiest international airports and offers 72 car rental companies on site - one of the largest selections in the entire country. The rental car center is directly connected to the terminal via the free MIA Mover shuttle train, making pickup convenient. From here, you can reach South Beach in about 20 minutes (13 km) and Fort Lauderdale in about 45 minutes (50 km) without traffic.
MIA is in the heart of Miami-Dade County, surrounded by highways I-836, SR-112, and SR-836 that provide quick access to the entire metropolitan region. Wynwood Arts District is just 10 km east, and Coral Gables' elegant Miracle Mile is reached in under 10 minutes to the south. Book your rental car in advance during high season (December - April) when prices rise significantly.
Choose a car with a SunPass transponder included to avoid cash toll fees on the highway tolls. Avoid picking up your car on Friday afternoons - traffic on SR-836 toward downtown can double your travel time. Where is the rental car center at Miami airport?
The Rental Car Center is located about 1 km from the terminals and is reached free of charge on the MIA Mover train, which runs 24/7 with 3-5 minute intervals. Do I need to pay tolls on the highways around Miami? Yes, several highways in Miami-Dade are toll roads.
Ask the rental company for a SunPass transponder or choose a package with toll fees included to avoid administrative surcharges. How long does it take to drive from MIA to Key West? From MIA to Key West is about 200 km via US-1 and Overseas Highway, which takes approximately 3.5-4 hours depending on traffic and stops along the way.
We compare prices from all major providers at Miami Airport so you can see the total cost upfront - including insurance, fuel terms and any extras. Most bookings include free cancellation up to 48 hours before pickup, giving you flexibility if your plans change.
