Don't know whether they shuttle to the cruise terminal, but I can highly recommend the Holiday Inn Ft. Lauderdale Airport. Don't be put off by the Holiday Inn branding; the pool area is an oasis with a large covered deck served by the restaurant. It is a gem that would otherwise be skipped over. Stayed there 1 night last year, and won't look elsewhere if we have another overnight need in the area in the future.

Celebrity Equinox 7 night next year with several at-sea days, and a so-so port call where we'll likely stay aboard. Going to splurge for the Premium Drink package, and my author wife will want Premium wi-fi (so may as well go Premium Access for the additional room service and reserve seating perks). Will we be better off going AI and then upgrade, or just cruise only and purchase the 2 packages ahead of time? Thanks!
