Thank you for showing off the Brightline experience! Who knew that the future of US train travel would be in.. Florida? What the heck? 😮👍👍

The bathrooms are much bigger than the one on an airplane and it is wide enough for a wheelchair. If you need one and the two times I rode Brightline the bathroom was always clean.

Brightline is building a station in Tampa and a new stop near Port Canaveral!

We just rode BL from Orlando to Ft Lauderdale for our cruise from Port Everglades. Beautiful train, nice staff, caught cab to our hotel since it was dark when we arrived. Live in Ohio so won't ride often, but locals should use it

If you can’t take the escalator or stairs for some reason such as you’re in a wheelchair or you have something bigger to carry like a baby buggy, etc. then there is an escalator.

I took the same route recently.
That was one of the best train experiences I've ever had, and i am from Switzerland

Earlier this year I flew into Fort Lauderdale, took Brightline to Miami, and then an Uber booked through Brightline to my pre-cruise hotel. So simple and low-stress! I just booked another flight to FLL and cruise out of Miami, and am definitely using Brightline again.

Brightline is an interesting development in Central / South Florida. The main issue I have seen with it is they still have dozens of level crossings where roads and rail intersect. This results in reduced speeds and hold ups. Unlike in Europe where trains have been more widely used for decades and most intersections are bridges or tunnels meaning they can be much quicker.

Than you, thank you, thank I've been waiting for this video. 🎉🎉😊😊

Hi Morgan, I'm an Uber driver in my 10th year. Regarding Uber and Lyft, instead of asking the driver who he or she is there to pickup, know their name, match their face and vehicle with the photos that's on the app and greet them by saying "hi ____" thank you for picking me up. The driver will reply and say your name.

I was in West Palm a few weeks ago and they have some thing called the circuit which is an electric bus very small more like the size of a van and it is free and it regularly comes to meet the Brightline and can take you anywhere in West Palm in Palm Beach

It’s about time Florida got some train transportation! Glad it worked well for your adventures!

Brightline was great when we flew into Fort Lauderdale to take cruise out of Miami. I ended up saving about $150 flying into Ft Lauderdale instead of Miami. Brightline is great! I will say Uber was not the best choice for ride-sharing. I found Lyft to be more reliable while in Florida.

Hey Morgan, Denise here from Toronto, Ontario. Thanks so much for this video. I’m booked to take the Brightline in January. I’m booked on the Celebrity Reflection departing on Jan 20th but planning on visiting my sister a few days before the cruise. So I’m flying into Orlando, visiting with her and hubby and then on the Friday before my cruise I’ve booked the Brightline to take me down to Ft. Lauderdale. I did this in September So I appreciated the walk through you did and told me where you get your luggage. Thanks for always doing such a great job and keeping it real!

[deborahwilliams]

Brightline was fully placed in service around September so it is very new. We see/hear it fly through our town several times a day.

I love using the train. Wish they would do the same for Texas. Austin, Dallas, Houston, Galveston would be so convenient and more cost effective than short haul flights.

[Pantherjonvideos]

Nice! Going to be doing Brightline to go from Orlando to Miami to catch my Virgin cruise in March!

[arlene]

Just an FYI, Morgan. They are going to build a station at Merritt Island for Port Canaveral cruises sometime in the future, but not really sure how far Merritt Island to Port Canaveral is.

[walkermedr]

I am going to use Brightline after Disney and before a Princess Cruise in January

Thank you for the video! This is very helpful for my upcoming cruise. I fly into Miami and depart from Fort Lauderdale!
