I e-mailed Seattle Cruise park, asking about the valet parking etc. This was there reply:
Hi
Yes, we have changed our procedures this year to accommodate increased demand and keep the prices lower while costs skyrocket. The cars don't leave the lot during the week. We basically just park them all in lines for the week then space them out in a loading section for easy return the morning you arrive. The process is pretty easy. You just pull into the lot and we load the shuttles right up front where you pull in and then one of our valets will move the car.
Then today I found out that the Seattle Pride festival parade is on June 26th the day we cruise. They are estimating that there will 500,000 people plus in attendance in and around the Seattle Center and in the downtown area . I'm thinking about canceling my reservation at the Seattle cruise park and catching the Princess shuttle from Sea-tac airport.
