The Miami International Airport (MIA) has more than 1,000 take offs and landings per day, and more than 569,000 passengers fly into and out of MIA on average each week.  150 cities and four continents are easily within reach of MIA.  Additionally, the Fort Lauderdale / Hollywood International Airport (FLL), located only 25 miles north of Miami, provides additional flights and non-stop service to even more destinations.
