Super Bowl Travel – Three Ways to Score Big

Super Bowl Travel 2020

All eyes will be on Miami when it hosts Super Bowl LIV on February 2nd. You’ve probably had your flight and hotel booked for months. However, now it’s time to turn your attention to your Super Bowl travel details during your stay in Miami. Read on to learn how we’ll make Super Bowl transportation a breeze with our affiliate partners.

The battle for the Lombardi trophy between the Kansas City Chiefs from the AFC and San Francisco 49ers from the NFC is sure to be an exciting finale to the NFL season, and the city of Miami has the extravagance to match. Miami expects to attract over 150,000 people in total, according to Super Bowl Committee Chairman Rodney Barreto. While these visitors get to enjoy the beautiful weather, food, and sports that the city has to offer, they also have to navigate super bowl transportation.

Miami’s notorious traffic issues will only become more intense mainly as travelers arrive. The heaviest days will be on Thursday or Friday and on Monday when most will depart.

Naturally, the influx of visitors will place a strain on the city’s transportation. The Miami Herald reported that Miami-Dade county would likely spend up to $14 million on light infrastructure improvements, and the costs of extra paramedics, police, and security over the weekend. The goal of these improvements is to make Super Bowl transportation easier, but at Delux, we encourage you to be prepared.

And luckily, for visitors to Miami, Delux proudly offers ground transportation nationwide through our trusted affiliates across the country.

1. Choose Your Super Bowl Travel Options in Miami Wisely

One thing to note about Miami is their love of car culture. The idea of joyriding a convertible or low rider through the city streets is a South Florida tradition. Add in the number of custom trucks, import cars and motorcycles, and a diverse but dangerous perspective on driving in Miami emerges.

Finally, data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration points to Florida drivers as the most dangerous in the U.S. Traffic is expected to be at all-time highs given the influx of visitors over Super Bowl weekend. Therefore, it’s essential not to take transportation into your own hands.

As with any significant event, parking in Miami over the Super Bowl weekend will be difficult. In Miami Beach, street parking is $4 per hour, and the nearest parking lot will cost anywhere from $10-30 per hour. Public transportation, like the Metrorail and Metromover, are minimal. They may end up dropping you off miles away from your destination.

If you are new to Miami, our suggestion is to contact us at Delux, and we will arrange Super Bowl travel through one of our affiliates in Miami.

2. Explore Miami’s One of a Kind Cultural Neighborhoods

Traditionally known for its beaches, nightclubs and eclectic mix of cultures, Miami is genuinely a city like no other in the U.S. Before the big game, we encourage you to take a trip to a neighborhood west of downtown Miami. Little Havana remains one of the best neighborhoods in the country to find authentic Cuban cuisine. New restaurants like Café La Trova expertly combine great food and live music for an exciting experience. Older staples like Versailles will provide you with the opportunity to experience Miami’s heritage. A word of the wise from the locals – restaurants in Miami are known to include gratuity in their final bill. Be sure to double-check before you double-tip.

One of Miami’s most up and coming neighborhoods is Wynnwood. The area is known for its outdoor murals, street vendors, live music and galleries. While the neighborhood’s famous Art Walk only occurs the second Saturday of every month, don’t fret. The district truly comes alive as a family-friendly artists maven every weekend.

3. Enjoy Miami’s Nightlife, Responsibly

Truly deserving of its reputation, Miami is the hot spot for parties, live music, and entertainment. Bars and nightclubs stay open until 5 am, and liquor stores in the county are open 24/7. In a city where partying occurs day and night, it’s essential to be cognizant of your surroundings.

If you do plan to indulge in the city’s nightlife, Purdy Lounge, Mango’s Tropical Café, and Do Not Sit On the Furniture all come highly rated. If this is your first time in Miami, plan your time in the city wisely. Following a night of partying, call Delux to reserve a ride back to your hotel or to wherever you are staying.

Conclusion:

We’ve mentioned three tips to ensure you get the most fun out of Super Bowl weekend in Miami with the least amount of stress. While the big game is the reason for coming to Miami, make sure to take advantage of all Miami has to offer. The city’s fascinating cultural scene is evident in its cuisine, live music, art, and nightlife. Call us to ensure all your travels during your stay in Miami will be seamless.

And as always, we appreciate seeing the fun our clients are having. Attendees at last year’s Super Bowl  in Atlanta used 24.05 TB of data, the equivalent of a record 68 million selfies posted from the stands. If you happen to be one of the lucky guests at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami, take this tradition seriously and be sure to send us a quick selfie!

With Super Bowl weekend coming up in just two weeks, don’t leave transportation up to chance. Give Delux a call at 516-883-1900 to arrange a Super Bowl travel through one of our high-quality Miami affiliates.
