Customer service oriented. Flight routes serviced by the world's most recognized airlines. Focused on future improvements. That's what has helped make Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport one of the fastest growing airports in the country.

- Non-stop service to more than 55 U.S. cities.
- International service to, Canada, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, Mexico, Latin America and South America.

- Wireless connectivity throughout the airport for convenient laptop operation and Internet access.
- Four modern terminals with many restaurants, gift shops and business centers that put an end to "terminal boredom." There are also separate areas for departures and arrivals, with arrival gates located in close proximity to baggage claim areas.
- A Rental Car Center featuring 12 nationally known car rental companies and more than 5,400 rental cars-all under one roof.
- Many ground transportation options, including: shared-ride vans, taxis, buses and connections to the Tri-Rail commuter system linking Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach counties.
- Easy access to major roadways that include: I-95, I-75, I-595, U.S. 1 and Florida's Turnpike to destinations in South and Central Florida.
