Flying from Miami International
Miami International is American Airlines' largest hub for Latin American flying — over 60% of all US-to-Latin America traffic routes through here. Three terminals N, S and CW are connected by the MIA Mover people mover, with Metrorail Orange Line and Tri-Rail commuter trains both running from the airport to downtown and Fort Lauderdale. International long-haul east-coast schedules favour MIA over JFK; Caribbean and Latin connections are the deepest of any US airport.
