At 9am we leave back to the airport to check in with “Shuttle Express” to pier 91. Shuttle express is a local service that can be pre arranged by internet. By setting up a round trip drop off & pickups each way had an additional savings & only cost $27 each way for 2 people. Shuttle express was easy to find, little wait & very organized. We shared a mini Van with 6 other adults all going to the same pier. Trip was approximate 20-30 minutes.
Seattle has 2 cruise ports. Pier 66 - Located right downtown (Norwegian & Royal Caribbean cruises. Pier 91 is a new port is on the out skirts of town home for Carnival, Holland American & Princess Cruises.
Our paperwork said that the check in began at 12 noon. We arrived at the port 10:30 am and was thru security and in the room by 11:30am. Out of all the cruise ports we have been to Seattle was one of the top 3 a far a fast & easy.
The remainder of the day was spent relaxing. Checking out the boat & heading up on the top deck for sail away. 5:00pm the ships horns blow a loud 3 times and we were off. As Seattle’s down town sky line got smaller the snowcapped mountains in the distance it is 55 degrees & snow on the mountains.
