It would be a waste of money  for Botany Bay with only one ship a day. Ft lauderdale  has about 10 or more berths  and might warrant this sort of set up...and where would it start, not everybody flies in to cruise and It has no long term parking there,  not worth building for the small number that would use it.

Botany may have two berths eventually,what would the container terminal be from the domestic airport,5 km.

They essentially do this at many overseas ports (i.e Buenos Aires, San Diego) where passengers are checked in and then taken to the cruise ship some distance away.

If botany was up and running white elephant could be scold to developers.

Plenty of money to spend.

You're on the money there. I could not believe how many cruise ships were tied up in  Ft Lauderdale for the start of our Panama cruise. Many of the local hotels seem to be almost exclusively for cruise passengers and run their own shuttles to the port. Then, at the end, San Diego. Not only cruise ships but also warships. IIRC San Diego is the biggest naval port on the west coast.

 I do have a psychology degree, so I think s/he is a little afraid of me. As I once saw on a T-shirt "Keep talking, I'm diagnosing you"
