The MIA Mover, opened September 8, is the elevated platform that will transport travelers from the airport terminal to the rental car center; traveling 1.25 miles from the third floor of the airport terminal, across LeJeune Road to the MIA Car Center, the mover can transport up to 3,000 passengers per hour in its eight train cars.
