The best cruises to Alaska from Seattle for every type of traveler
What are the best Alaska cruises out of Seattle ? It depends on what kind of traveler you are.
If you're a parent traveling with teens and tweens, you'll probably want to pick a voyage on one of the big, family activity-filled cruise ships operated by Royal Caribbean and Norwegian Cruise Line that sail out of Seattle each summer.
If you're looking to get away from families with young children — maybe you're a retiree looking to travel with people your own age — you'd want to check out the itineraries operated by cruise lines that cater more to couples without kids, most notably Holland America and Princess Cruises.

Other cruises might be best for solo travelers or travelers on a tight budget.
Here we list our top picks for the best Alaska cruises from Seattle for six different types of travelers.
Best for families: Ovation of the Seas
It isn't easy picking the best Alaska cruise out of Seattle for families. There are four world-class family-focused cruise ships in the market, each of which is a contender for the best for families title: Royal Caribbean 's Ovation of the Seas and Quantum of the Seas, and Norwegian Cruise Line's Norwegian Encore and Norwegian Bliss.
All four ships are loaded with all sorts of gee-whiz family attractions, from bumper car pavilions and skydiving simulators on the Royal Caribbean vessels to go-kart tracks and laser tag courses on the Norwegian ships.
Unlike the Royal Caribbean ships, the Norwegian ships also have epic waterslides on their top decks, which in theory, might put them over the top in any listing of the best cruise ships for families based in Seattle.
However, keep in mind that Alaska can be chilly, even at the height of summer, and rainy, too. For that reason, we discount the value of some of the family-friendly attractions on the Norwegian ships, which are open to the elements, and consider the Royal Caribbean ships the best of the bunch for Alaska cruises from Seattle.
Both of the Royal Caribbean ships sailing to Alaska from Seattle are loaded with attractions that are protected from the elements, including those bumper car pavilions and skydiving simulators. In fact, both Ovation of the Seas and Quantum of the Seas were specifically built to operate in areas of inclement weather.
Of the two ships, which are nearly identical and part of the relatively new Quantum class of vessels, we give the 4,180-passenger Ovation of the Seas the nod for best Alaska family cruise ship sailing from Seattle only because it's a couple of years newer. Newer is almost always better in the cruise world.

A cavernous indoor activity area on each of the two Quantum-class ships called the SeaPlex is home to the aforementioned bumper cars, as well as such family-friendly activities as roller skating, basketball and even trapeze lessons. The two-level complex also has upstairs nooks for playing Xbox, ping pong and foosball. It's like one big play zone for families that will keep your kids busy for hours.
Each of the ships also offers one of the most unusual attractions you'll find at sea: A glass-enclosed capsule mounted on a mechanical arm that will take you and your family soaring into the sky for bird's-eye views. It's called the North Star ride.
All the above come in addition to many of the core Royal Caribbean attractions you'll find on most of the brand's ships, including pools, rock climbing walls, casinos, spas and Broadway-style shows, plus lots of eateries and bars.

Of particular note, given Alaska's weather, is that one of the two main pool areas on each of these Quantum-class ships is enclosed.
Best for budget travelers: Eurodam
Our pick for the best Alaska cruises from Seattle for budget travelers may come as a surprise to many cruise aficionados. That's because it's not the Alaska voyages from Seattle offered by the North American cruise line best known for budget sailings — Carnival Cruise Line .
Carnival does offer cruises to Alaska from Seattle regularly with two ships: Carnival Spirit and Carnival Luminosa. However, while Carnival is the low-cost leader in many cruise destinations, that's not always the case in the market for Alaska cruises from Seattle. Often, the lowest starting prices you'll find on cruises to Alaska from Seattle, on both an absolute and per-day basis, are the cruises offered by Holland America .
For the coming year, for instance, as of this guide's posting, there were lots of Holland America sailings to Alaska from Seattle available for under $750 per person for seven nights — some as low as $429 per person for seven nights.
There were very few Carnival sailings available for under $750 per person, with most Carnival sailings starting around $800 per person or more for seven nights.
We suspect the lower starting prices for Holland America ships as compared to Carnival ships on Alaska sailings out of Seattle is because Alaska cruises from Seattle are round-trip voyages. Many Holland America fans who cruise to Alaska choose a one-way voyage to or from the state that lets them add extra days for touring in Alaska at the start or end of the voyage. Such one-way voyages only are available out of Vancouver, British Columbia.
Holland America — the longtime leader in Alaska cruises, along with its sister company Princess Cruises — is particularly known for "cruisetours" to Alaska that combine a one-way cruise to or from the state with multiple days touring Alaska by motorcoach and train.
Holland America bases two ships in Seattle for cruises to Alaska: the 2,104-passenger Eurodam and 1,964-passenger Westerdam. Starting prices for both are relatively similar, but we give the nod for the best Alaska cruises from Seattle for budget travelers to Eurodam as it's a somewhat newer vessel.
Best for luxury lovers: Norwegian Encore
No luxury-focused cruise ships sail to Alaska out of Seattle. Still, you can get a variation on a luxury cruise experience on a voyage to Alaska from Seattle on Norwegian Cruise Line 's Norwegian Encore.
Yes, the 3,998-passenger Norwegian Encore is a cruise ship that generally caters to the masses, not the luxury crowd. However, it has its own "ship-within-a-ship" luxury zone that offers a much more swanky experience for those willing to pay.
At the top front of the vessel, this private enclave, called The Haven, is home to dozens of upscale suites; a sprawling, two-deck-high pool area; a private lounge and bar; and a private restaurant. Only the deep-pocketed swells who can afford one of the suites get exclusive access to these areas.
The pool area, a true stunner, comes with comfortable padded loungers, a pool and whirlpools. Its retractable glass roof is perfect for cruises to Alaska when the weather is iffy. Guests can enjoy the deck, rain or shine.
If living large is your goal, you're not going to find anything better than this — other than with a cruise on a similar Norwegian vessel that also cruises to Alaska from Seattle. Norwegian Bliss, also based in Washington during the summer, is part of the same Norwegian Breakaway-Plus class of vessels and has a similar Haven enclave.
Related: How to turn a mass-market cruise into a luxury experience
Why did we pick Norwegian Encore over Norwegian Bliss as the ship offering the best Alaska cruises from Seattle for luxury lovers? Built a year after Norwegian Bliss, Norwegian Encore offers one big improvement for the upscale crowd as compared to Norwegian Bliss.
On Norwegian Encore, there's a much bigger version of the exclusive, extra-charge Vibe Beach Club sunning area that's on Norwegian Bliss. Home to a full-service bar, cabanas and two hot tubs, the version of the Vibe Beach Club on Norwegian Encore sprawls across both sides of the ship (instead of just one side on Norwegian Bliss) and extends upward to a partial deck above. It's just $99 or more per day to get in.
It's yet one more stylish and upscale area for cruisers looking for an upgraded experience to retreat.
Note that there is one other option for upscale Alaska cruises out of Seattle: A voyage on Oceania Cruises ' 684-passenger Regatta. While Oceania isn't considered a luxury line on the level of Silversea Cruises or Seabourn Cruise Line , it has an elegant feel. That said, given the ship's age (it dates to 1998) and limited venues, we're still in the camp that favors a Haven stay on a Norwegian ship.
Best for solo travelers: Norwegian Bliss
Norwegian Encore and Norwegian Bliss are also our top picks for ships operating the best Alaska cruises from Seattle for solo travelers. Between these two, it's a tossup, though we put Norwegian Bliss in the headline above since, well, we already gave Norwegian Encore a turn in the limelight with the best-for-luxury category.
Notably, both Norwegian Bliss and Norwegian Encore boast large private zones for solo travelers — something you won't find on any other cruise ship sailing out of Seattle. It's a hallmark of Norwegian's newest and biggest ships.
On each of the ships, the "studio" zones, as Norwegian calls them, are made up of 82 special solo cabins and a private Studio Lounge where solos can gather for happy hours and other events. Only the studio zone on Norwegian's 2010-built Norwegian Epic is bigger.
Passengers staying in solo cabins get exclusive access to the Studio Lounge (using their keycards), meaning a maximum of 82 people will share the space.
A special zone for solo travelers is a rare concept in the cruise world, where almost all rooms for vacationers are designed for two people and sold with per-person fares that are based on two people occupying the room.
The solo cabins in the studio zones are small (measuring 100 square feet) but are superbly designed to maximize storage space (something I learned firsthand staying in one on Norwegian Epic).
Related: The best cruise lines for solo travelers
Solo passengers on Norwegian Encore and Norwegian Bliss will also find a sometimes rollicking bar scene, with plenty of counter-style seating in bars that are a great place to meet other solo travelers and friendly guests. We recommend the Sugarcane Mojito Bar on Norwegian Bliss. There, the bartender will muddle your mojitos with raspberry, guava, passion fruit or even jalapeno pepper to spice things up when you're sitting with your new solo friends.
One warning if you're considering booking one of the solo cabins: They've become so popular that they often sell out far in advance and at prices that aren't much better than booking a cabin for two.
Best for multigenerational travel: Discovery Princess
Looking for the best Alaska cruise from Seattle if you're bringing three generations of your family along for the ride? We can think of nothing better than a voyage on one of the two Princess Cruises ships that sail out of the city, the 3,660-passenger Discovery Princess and 3,560-passenger Royal Princess.
Both ships are almost identical, but we give Discovery Princess the edge only because it's newer than Royal Princess. The two vessels were built in 2022 and 2013, respectively.
Princess has long been heralded as one of the best cruise lines for multigenerational travel, in part because its ships offer a little something for travelers of all ages.
Unlike the Royal Caribbean and Norwegian ships mentioned above, the two Princess ships sailing from Seattle don't have top decks heavily skewed to family fun. Instead, their top decks offer lots of quiet and relaxing pool and lounge areas where you can enjoy the experience of being at sea without much hustle and bustle.
That makes these ships more appealing to an older demographic that doesn't necessarily want to be on a vessel that's loaded to the gills with children's fun zones and the younger family travelers drawn to that. Notably, the average age of Princess passengers is around 57, and you'll usually see many couples on board in their 50s, 60s and 70s.
Still, unlike some lines that cater to an older crowd, Princess doesn't ignore the children's market. Both Discovery Princess and Royal Princess offer an extensive children's program that gets high marks from parents, with dedicated Discovery Channel-themed Camp Discovery areas where counselors supervise free activities daily for children ages 3 to 17.
When sailing to Alaska, these ships also offer other kid-friendly events, such as Puppies on Princess, when dog mushers and their newest sled dogs come on board for meet-and-greets (and photos!). In partnership with the Discovery Channel and Glacier Bay National Park, the line also adds such kid-friendly fun during Alaska sailings as a Junior Ranger Program, totem pole decorating and a "Deadliest Catch-"themed crab sorting challenge.
In addition, an onboard Klondike Festival brings added family entertainment, including gold nugget arts and crafts projects, a naturalist exhibition, harmonica music classes and North to Alaska dance performances.
In short, Princess provides an Alaska product specifically designed to appeal to a wide age range. It's the line you take if you want an affordable ship that'll appeal to your 70-year-old parents as much as your 12-year-old kid.
Best for retirees: Westerdam
The best Alaska cruises out of Seattle for retirees, in our view, are the sailings offered by Holland America on both the 1,964-passenger Westerdam and 2,104-passenger Eurodam. We give Westerdam the slight edge for reasons we will explain below.
While Holland America draws some families with younger children, the passengers on its ships skew heavily toward middle-aged and older travelers, including many retirees. If you're nearing or already have hit retirement age and prefer to travel mostly with people who are at a similar stage in life as you, you'll feel right at home on a Holland America ship.
The top decks of Holland America vessels, notably, lack many of the kid-focused attractions found on the top decks of more family-focused ships operated by the likes of Royal Caribbean, Carnival and Norwegian. That often keeps families with younger kids from booking the ships.
What you will find on the top decks of both Eurodam and Westerdam are more serene sunning areas with pools and whirlpools. Depending on your travel style, that might be all you need.
Related: The best cruises for seniors who love to travel
Both Eurodam and Westerdam mostly sail seven-night trips to Alaska out of Seattle. However, for 2024, Westerdam has added an epic new 28-night Alaska itinerary out of Seattle that will include calls in remote areas that most cruise ships never visit. The new itinerary is one reason we give Westerdam the edge among ships when rating the best Alaska cruises out of Seattle for seniors.
It's the sort of itinerary that specifically appeals to retirees with the time (and money) to book such a long trip.
Westerdam is also a slightly smaller ship than Eurodam, and as a result, its demographics on any given sailing are more likely to skew toward a retired crowd. To the extent that families with younger kids book Holland America ships, they are more likely to book one of its larger vessels.
In addition to Eurodam and Rotterdam, two other good choices for retirees considering Alaska cruises out of Seattle are the two Princess ships that sail on such itineraries: Royal Princess and Discovery Princess. Like the Holland America ships, they aren't loaded with kid-focused attractions that draw families.
Bottom line
Nearly a dozen major cruise ships operate Alaska cruises out of Seattle during the summer months, giving cruisers plenty of choice.
What is the best Alaska cruise from Seattle for you? That'll depend on your personal interests and travel style because there are cruises from Seattle that appeal to everyone, including family travelers, budget travelers and retirees.

Port of Call Port of Call (Arrival, Departure)
Seattle, a city on Puget Sound in the Pacific Northwest, is surrounded by water, mountains and evergreen forests, and contains thousands of acres of parkland. Washington State’s largest city, it’s home to a large tech industry, with Microsoft and Amazon headquartered in its metropolitan area. The futuristic Space Needle, a 1962 World’s Fair legacy, is its most iconic landmark.
Considered the "gem" of Southeast Alaska, the city is nestled against the ocean, tucked tight against the mountains and back-dropped by the lush green of the largest national forest in the United States, the Tongass. Visitors will find that Juneau is not only the state's capital, but it's also a melting pot of history, unique topography and jaw-dropping scenery that is found nowhere else on the planet. Whether it's wildlife viewing, glacier trekking, ziplining or just shopping for locally created artwork, visitors to this remote yet extraordinary region will certainly find a bit of "Alaska" to take home.
Skagway, with a population of 862, is located in the Upper Lynn Canal at the northernmost point on the Inside Passage in Southeast Alaska, 100 air miles north of Juneau and 110 road miles south of Whitehorse, Yukon Territory. The City of Skagway is geographically the largest city in Alaska with 455 square land miles. Skagway's history and spectacular natural setting combine to create unparalleled sightseeing and recreation opportunities. Poke around on your own, or select from a variety of commercial tours. Either way, you will be amply rewarded with the sights and activities in and around Skagway.
Tracy Arm, like Glacier Bay, is another fjord in the southeast that features tidewater glaciers and steep 2000 foot granite walls that rise straight out of the water. This steep-sided fjord, 50 miles southeast of Juneau, is highlighted by a pair of tidewater glaciers and a gallery of icebergs that float down the length of it. This 30-mile arm was an ideal choice for novice kayakers as calm water is the norm here due to the protection the steep and narrow fjord wall provide. You are almost guaranteed of seeing seals inside the arm and there is a good possibility of spotting whales on the into the arm.
A city of southeast Alaska on an island in the Alexander Archipelago. A supply point for miners during the gold rush of the 1890s, it is now a major port and tourist center on the Inside Passage. Population: 7,450.
Victoria/Canada
Victoria, capital of British Columbia, sits on the craggy southern end of Vancouver Island. With abundant parkland, it’s known for outdoor activities. The city's British colonial past shows in its Victorian architecture, including stately Craigdarroch Castle mansion. Butchart Gardens, with 55 acres of vivid floral displays, plus statuary, water features and a carousel, is one of many formal gardens in the city.

Cruising to Alaska from Seattle Cruise Port – Introduction
Brief overview of seattle cruise port.
Welcome to the ultimate guide for your Alaska cruise adventure in 2024 from the Port of Seattle! If you’re reading this, chances are you’re as excited as we are about cruising to Alaska.
And let us tell you, we absolutely love Seattle and visited this city several times! We’ve embarked on an Alaskan cruise from this port, sharing facts, personal experiences, and insider tips.
Known for its stunning skyline, vibrant culture, and ports, Seattle is a bustling gateway for over a million cruise passengers each year. With two major terminals, the Seattle Cruise Port is well-equipped to kickstart your Alaskan voyage.
Why Seattle Ports for Cruises to Alaska are Ideal?
You might be wondering, “Why Seattle?” The answer is simple: Location, location, location. Seattle’s geographical proximity to Alaska makes it an ideal starting point for your cruise. Most cruises from Seattle reach their first Alaskan port of call, usually Ketchikan or Juneau, in just about 36 to 48 hours. This means you’ll spend less time sailing and more time exploring the Alaskan charming towns and wilderness.
The relatively short distance—approximately 750 to 900 nautical miles, depending on the route—also often translates to more affordable cruise packages.
Moreover, Seattle’s convenient location extends beyond its ports. The city is served by Seattle-Tacoma International Airport, which offers a wide range of domestic and international flights. Getting to the port is a breeze thanks to the city’s excellent public transportation system. Last time, it took less than 40 minutes.
And let’s not forget, the Seattle Cruise Port is just a stone’s throw away from the downtown area and the city’s heart. The Port of Seattle offers convenience and adds an extra layer of vacation to your trip.
Seattle offers a rich tapestry of attractions, from the iconic Space Needle to the bustling Pike Place Market . Imagine sipping on a freshly brewed cup of Seattle coffee as you overlook Puget Sound, knowing that your next stop is the majestic wilderness of Alaska.
We’ve explored this city on multiple road trips, so you’ll find a comprehensive 3-day Seattle itinerary on our second blog. It’s great to explore Emerald City if you have some extra time before or after your Alaskan cruise.
What’s New in the 2024 Cruise Season
As we look forward to the 2024 Alaska cruise season, there’s much to be excited about. The Port of Seattle invests in new facilities and services to make your journey more comfortable. Whether it’s streamlined check-in processes, upgraded amenities, or new partnerships with major cruise lines, Seattle is committed to making 2024 a great year for Alaska cruises.

Understanding Seattle Ports for Cruises: Terminal Guide
Port of Seattle has two terminals, at Pier 66 and at Pier 91, separated by a few miles, each with its own amenities and advantages. The terminals aren’t located at one spot, so knowing which terminal your cruise line to Alaska departure from is crucial.
Both are located approximately 15 miles from the Seattle Airport, and each is easy to get to, as we describe in detail below. Here’s what you need to know about each:
Bell Street Pier Cruise Terminal at Pier 66
Located in the heart of downtown Seattle, the Bell Street Pier Cruise Terminal is as convenient as it gets.
Cruise Lines leaving from Pier 66: This terminal primarily serves as the homeport for Norwegian Cruise Line and Oceania Cruises.
Amenities : The terminal offers a range of amenities, including luggage storage, a seated waiting area, and even a concierge service to help with last-minute details.
Accessibility : Easily accessible by public transportation, taxis, and rideshares, getting to Pier 66 is a breeze. Plus, there’s ample parking available for those who prefer to drive.
Parking: Pier 66 terminal has parking onsite, with about 1,700 spaces.
Pier 66 address: 2225 Alaskan Way, Seattle, WA 98121
Smith Cove Cruise Terminal at Pier 91
Situated a bit further north, the Smith Cove Cruise Terminal offers a more laid-back departure experience.
Cruise Lines leaving from Pier 91: This terminal is the main departure point for Carnival Cruise Line, Holland America Line, Princess Cruises, and Royal Caribbean International.
Amenities : Smith Cove offers similar amenities to Pier 66 but adds a few extras, like a pet relief area and more extensive parking options.
Accessibility : Although it’s a bit further from the city center, Smith Cove is still easily accessible via public transportation, and it’s just a quick taxi or rideshare away from downtown Seattle.
Parking: Smith Cove Cruise Terminal at Pier 91 in Seattle offers over 1,000 parking spaces for cruise passengers.
Pier 91 address: 2001 W Garfield Way, Seattle, WA 98199
Getting to Seattle Cruise Port: Transportation Guide
Whether you’re flying into Seattle or already in the city, getting to the cruise port is an important part of your journey. Here’s a breakdown of the various transportation options available.
From Seattle-Tacoma International Airport to Seattle Cruise Port
If you’re flying into Seattle-Tacoma International Airport , you have several options to reach the cruise port:
Cruise Line Transfers
Many cruise lines offer transfer services from the airport to the terminal. These are often available as an add-on when booking your cruise, providing a seamless, worry-free transition from air to sea. It’s a great option if you don’t have time to explore Seattle before or after your cruise.
Note: Prices for cruise line transfers can vary, so comparing this option with other transportation methods is worth comparing.
Taxi and Rideshare Options
Both Uber and Lyft operate at the airport, and taxis are readily available. The ride to either Pier 66 or Pier 91 usually takes around 30-45 minutes, depending on traffic, and costs approximately $40-$70. Last time, we paid $60.
Public Transportation
For budget-conscious travelers, Seattle’s public transportation system offers a cost-effective way to get to the port. The Link Light Rail can take you from the airport to downtown Seattle, where you can then take a short taxi or bus ride to the cruise terminal. The total cost is usually around $3 for the train and an additional $8-$10 for the taxi.
Hotels with Shuttles
Several hotels near the cruise port offer shuttle services to and from the airport as well as to the cruise terminal. This can be a convenient and sometimes cost-effective option, especially if you plan to stay in Seattle for a day or two before your cruise.
Some of Seattle hotels with cruise shuttle services are:
- Hyatt Place Seattle/Downtown ,
- Four Points by Sheraton Downtown Seattle Center ,
- The Mediterranean Inn ,
- Travelodge Seattle by the Space Needle .
Our Tip : Always check with the hotel in advance to confirm shuttle availability and any associated costs.
If you prefer the flexibility of having your own vehicle, several rental car companies operate out of Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. This option might be particularly useful if you plan to explore Seattle before embarking on your cruise. Just remember, you’ll need to factor in the cost of parking at the cruise terminal, which generally ranges from $20-$30 per day.
Our Tip: Choose a rental company with the option of returning the car downtown just before the cruise and getting to the ship by Uber or taxi. Last time, before the cruise, we took advantage of this solution to spend some time in Seattle and the surrounding area.
From Downtown Seattle to the Port of Seattle
If you’re already in downtown Seattle, getting to the cruise port is even easier:
- Walking : If you’re staying near Pier 66, it’s often just a short walk to the terminal.
- Taxi and Rideshare : A quick taxi or rideshare can get you to either terminal in about 10-15 minutes, costing around $10-$20, depending on your starting point.
- Public Transportation : Buses also run frequently to both terminals, making it a convenient and affordable option.
Seattle Cruise Port Parking Options
Pier 66 and Pier 91 offer on-site parking for those who prefer to drive. Rates generally range from $20-$30 per day, and it’s advisable to book in advance, especially during the busy summer months.
In summary, whether you’re flying in or already in the city, a range of convenient and budget-friendly transportation options make getting to the Seattle Cruise Port a breeze.
Pre-Cruise Stay in Seattle: Hotels Near Seattle Cruise Port
Whether you’re arriving a day before your cruise or extending your stay post-cruise, finding the right hotel near the Seattle Cruise Port can enhance your overall experience. Arriving in Seattle at least a day before your cruise is a smart move for several reasons:
- Avoid Stress: Travel delays happen. Arriving early eliminates the panic of potentially missing your cruise.
- Delayed Luggage: If your luggage is delayed, arriving a day or two early gives you some cushion time to deal with any issues before your cruise departs.
- Handle Logistics: Early arrival allows for last-minute shopping or even pre-cruise check-in, making your boarding day smoother.
- Explore Seattle: Use the extra time to check out Seattle’s must-see attractions like the Space Needle or Pike Place Market.
- Rest Up: Travel can be tiring. An extra day gives you time to relax and start your cruise refreshed.
Here are some recommended options for the best hotels near Seattle Cruise Port:

Cruise Lines Operating from Seattle Cruise Port to Alaska
First, remember to check which Pier your ship departs from. Here’s a little tip for the most famous lines offering cruises to Alaska. Knowing which cruise lines operate from each terminal can help you plan your day better. Pier 66 is closer to downtown Seattle.
- Norwegian Cruise Line : Offers a flexible schedule, ideal for those who like to go with the flow. We like it for its flexible “Freestyle Cruising” concept. You can read our Norwegian Sun cruise ship review after our last 10 nights of Alaska cruise.

Amenities and Facilities at Seattle Cruise Port
Once checked in, you’ll have time to explore the terminal and take advantage of its amenities. Pier 66 and Pier 91 offer comfortable seating areas, luggage storage, and even concierge services for those last-minute questions or needs. Need to grab a quick snack or forgot to buy a travel essential? No worries. There are vending machines and small shops for your convenience.
Check-in Process at the Port of Seattle
The check-in process is straightforward but can vary slightly depending on your cruise line. Generally, you’ll present your identification and cruise documents at the check-in counter. Some cruise lines offer a streamlined check-in through their mobile apps, allowing you to skip the lines and head straight to your cabin.
Our Tip: Arrive early to beat the crowds, but not too early, as the port may not be open. Check your cruise line’s recommended arrival times to find the best spot time for you.
Step 1: Arrival and Luggage Drop-off
As you approach the terminal, you’ll see designated areas for luggage drop-off. Porters will be available to assist you. Ensure your luggage is tagged with your cruise tags, which usually include your name, ship name, and stateroom number.
Pro Tip : It’s a good idea to arrive during the time window your cruise line suggests to avoid long waits.
Step 2: Security Check
Next, you’ll go through a security screening similar to what you’d experience at an airport. This involves passing through a metal detector and having your carry-on items scanned. You can’t bring liquids, so ensure your reusable water bottle is empty.
Note: Be aware of restricted items on your cruise line lists and leave them at home to ensure a hassle-free security check. For example, drones and knives with longer blades are prohibited.
Step 3: Check-in Counter
After clearing security, you’ll proceed to the check-in counter. Here, you’ll present your cruise documents, identification, and the credit card you’ll use for onboard purchases. Some cruise lines offer expedited check-in through their mobile apps, allowing you to complete most of this process before arriving.
Our Tip: Have all your documents ready to speed up this process.
Step 4: Boarding Pass and Key Card
Once checked in, you’ll receive your boarding pass and key card. This key card serves multiple purposes—your room key, identification on the ship, and payment method for onboard purchases. Keep it with you always.
Step 5: Waiting Area
After receiving your key card, you’ll proceed to a waiting area. Depending on how early you arrive, you may have to wait here until boarding begins.
Step 6: Boarding
When it’s time to board, announcements will be made, and passengers will usually board according to their assigned groups or stateroom categories. Once your group is called, you’ll proceed through the gangway and onto the ship.
Step 7: Waiting for stateroom
Depending on the check-in time, your stateroom may already be available, or you may have to wait another hour or two. Depending on the itinerary, coffee snacks or lunch on the ship may already be served. This is also an excellent time to explore the ship or relax. You can pack your hand luggage swimsuits and hit the pool.
Our Tip: Keep your camera ready. Taking pictures from the ship deck with a Seattle in a backdrop is a great idea.
Step 8: Luggage
Luggage is delivered to the cabins within a few hours, so it may turn out that you will have to wait for your luggage until late in the afternoon. So, it is worth packing a light, warm sweatshirt for check-in that will protect you from the wind while walking and exploring the ship.
