About Fly into FLL for Love Burn
Fort Lauderdale is about 23.5 miles from the gate in a straight line, roughly 2.7 times MIA, and the official road figure is about 30 miles. Take FLL anyway when the rig you actually want is up there, because pickup location beats airport proximity. Driving 30 miles once is better than settling for a listing that misses your pass bracket. Take it too when you land a day early, since a buffer day makes the distance stop mattering. Do not take it when you arrive Thursday morning and expect to make a 10:00 AM entry with a service stop in between. FLL is the other official airport number. Thirty miles is a real drive in a fresh rental, especially a 40-foot pass. Build time for I-95 and for Monday exodus back north after 5:00 PM. Fort Lauderdale Beach is not an overflow lot for Love Burn. Sleep on Virginia Key with the right pass, or don't sleep in the vehicle. We can hand off around FLL when the lot fits.
