Where does Apex provide limo service in Florida?
Our Florida service runs from two offices in South Florida, Miami and Fort Lauderdale, and covers Miami-Dade, Broward and Palm Beach counties, the three counties Wikipedia lists for the Miami metropolitan area. That area had an estimated population of over 6.3 million. We do not operate from offices elsewhere in Florida.
The Miami office dispatches airport, cruise, corporate and event work across Miami-Dade; see the Miami hub and Miami airport limo service. The Fort Lauderdale office covers Broward and Palm Beach, including FLL airport transfers, Port Everglades cruise service and executive transportation. Trips between the two use our Fort Lauderdale to Miami limo service.

Which Florida airports do you serve, and how far are they from your offices?
We serve three South Florida airports: Miami International (MIA), Fort Lauderdale–Hollywood International (FLL) and Palm Beach International, renamed President Donald J. Trump International Airport (PBI) in July 2026. Together they handled 96,180,452 passengers in 2025. MIA is 1.6 miles from our Miami office and FLL 5.2 miles from Fort Lauderdale.
PBI's renaming took effect on July 9, 2026, per its Wikipedia article (accessed 2026-09-28). Passenger totals are each airport's 2025 figure from its Wikipedia infobox; distances are OSRM routes from the nearest Apex office, computed 2026-09-28 without traffic.

Which Florida cruise ports do you cover?

Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale handled 4,773,873 in fiscal 2025, ranked fourth busiest globally. Each is minutes from one of our offices.
Cruise transfers are timed to your sailing, with luggage handled door to door. Details by port: Port Everglades car service; for PortMiami, see the MIA to PortMiami section of our Miami airport page.
| Port | Cruise passengers | Nearest Apex office | Distance (no traffic) |

How are limousines regulated in Florida?
Florida handles limousine insurance and luxury ground TNCs at state level. Section 324.032 sets liability minimums of $125,000/250,000/50,000 for operators of limousines and other for-hire passenger vehicles who prove financial responsibility that way. Section 627.748 lets qualifying limousine networks elect state regulation, which bars local licensing of their prearranged rides.
The table quotes the 2026 Florida Statutes as published by the Florida Legislature (leg.state.fl.us, read 2026-09-28). It is a summary of the statute text, not legal advice, and it does not describe any company's own filings or elections. Airports and seaports keep the right to charge pickup fees and to set where pre-arranged vehicles stage and load, so pickup points can differ between MIA, FLL, PBI and the cruise ports.
| Statute | What the text says |
|---|---|
| s. 324.032(1)(a) | Owners or lessees who operate "taxicabs, limousines, jitneys, or any other for-hire passenger transportation vehicles" may prove financial responsibility with a liability policy "with minimum limits of $125,000/250,000/50,000." |
| s. 324.032(2) | Operators of at least 300 such vehicles may instead self-insure, up to $300,000 per occurrence, with audited financials and excess insurance. |
| s. 627.748(16) | A "luxury ground TNC" connects riders "exclusively to drivers who operate for-hire vehicles … including limousines and luxury sedans and excluding taxicabs"; an entity "may elect, upon written notification to the department, to be regulated as a luxury ground TNC." |
| s. 627.748(17)(a) | Luxury ground TNCs, their drivers and vehicles "are governed exclusively by state law"; counties, cities, airport and port authorities may not require a license for, or set rate, entry or operation rules on, their prearranged rides. |
| s. 627.748(17)(b) | Airports and seaports may still charge "reasonable pickup fees consistent with any pickup fees charged to taxicab companies" and designate "locations for staging, pickup, and other similar operations." |

What vehicles are available for Florida limo and van service?
Both Florida offices book the same fleet types: Cadillac Escalade SUVs, Sprinter vans, executive minibuses for 15 to 40 passengers, and motorcoaches for 40 to 56 passengers with an onboard restroom. Every vehicle has free Wi-Fi, and about 30 percent of the fleet carries a wheelchair lift, available on request.
Tell dispatch your passenger count and luggage and we size the vehicle; groups travelling between counties, such as a Fort Lauderdale hotel to a Miami Beach event, often book a Sprinter or minibus so everyone arrives together. Fleet specifications are Apex's own.
How do I book a limo anywhere in South Florida?
Call the office closest to your pickup, Miami at (305) 707-5837 or Fort Lauderdale at (954) 708-1028, or reserve online. Give us the pickup address or flight number, destination, passenger count and luggage. We recommend booking at least 24 hours ahead; same-day trips are taken when a vehicle is free.
Toll-free reservations are also available at 877-427-1777. Your confirmation lists the vehicle, the quoted rate and the chauffeur's contact details. Online bookings go through our reservation page.
