I really don't understand what the issue is with booking the transportation. I just checked DCL website regarding transportation and it does say only available through April 2024.
Airport Transfers
Ground transfers between Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport and Port Everglades and Miami International Airport (MIA) are available for purchase through April 2024. Airport transfers are available on embarkation and debarkation days only.
I can only assume they only have a contract with the company providing the transportation through April. Hopefully they will have this resolved and not leave us hanging. The one advantage of using DCL transportation is not worrying about the port arrival times. I think it is a little strange (frustrating) that we can book a room at the Hilton at least as far out as our December cruise but can not book the transportation yet. The only reason we booked the Hilton Marina was for the DCL transportation. It's a shame that Ft Lauderdale doesn't have an onsite hotel like the Hyatt at Orlando. Would have made things a lot easier flying in the day before the cruise.
