Sample itinerary

Simple 3-part fan plan

  1. Arrival day: Decide whether the trip is beach-first or matchday-first. Compare MIA and FLL, then save hotel-to-stadium and airport routes offline.
  2. Matchday: Plan around heat, humidity, summer storms, and post-match traffic. Avoid stacking beach, match, and airport plans too tightly.
  3. No-ticket fan day: Use official fan zones, established watch parties, and beach/nightlife areas once event details are confirmed.

Common mistakes

What to avoid

  • Booking Miami Beach and assuming the stadium will be nearby.
  • Ignoring FLL as a possible airport option depending on hotel location.
  • Underestimating weather disruption and humidity.
  • Choosing a watch party from social media without verifying venue, rules, or payment method.
