How far away are the West Palm and Miami airports, and how do you get from those to the hotels we're talking about. That transport from the airport to the hotel seems to be what most people complain about if it's difficult.

Ft Lauderdale is a smaller airport, at least it was 15 years ago. I used to get better prices quite often flying out of West Palm or Miami. So being closer to the FTL airport is a benefit for some but perhaps not for all. Anyways I hope to have some time tomorrow to make some more calls on the hotels.
