enough of the america stuff.........the drive is about 3.5 hours, if you want to get to the pier with enough time to feel "OK" with I would leave orlando at about 11:30. The traffic gets quite thick as you approach the "gold coast" of florida on I-95 and can be very unpredictable, especially if you have not done this drive before, the Turnpike is an alternative, yet you stop a few times to pay tolls, and that can slow you down.......advice to you.....look into Southwest Airlines, cheap airline that I know fly's from Orlando to Ft. Lauderdale, and the FLL airport is actually a 4 min cab ride to the pier, they actually have many rental car centers for the airport that are located closer to the pier! The flight is 45 mins....however with the 1+ hour check in you really only save about an hour in time.....IMHO go back to Orlando another time to see anyother parks!
