The concept represents a travel package designed for individuals embarking on cruises from Port Everglades. It bundles hotel accommodations, parking facilities for the duration of the cruise, and often, transportation to and from the port. As an example, a traveler might drive to Fort Lauderdale, check into a participating hotel the night before their cruise, leave their vehicle at the hotel’s parking area, and utilize a shuttle service provided by the hotel to reach the cruise terminal. This arrangement simplifies the pre-cruise logistics for travelers.
Its significance lies in offering convenience and reducing stress associated with travel arrangements. Benefits include secure parking for vehicles while travelers are at sea, a comfortable pre-cruise overnight stay, and streamlined transportation to the cruise terminal. Historically, this type of packaged service evolved in response to the increasing popularity of cruises and the demand for comprehensive travel solutions that address parking challenges and pre-departure accommodations.
