TRAVELISMYTHING Posted July 6, 2011 #1 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Anyone have experience with either of these companies? I am trying to find transportation to/from airport to Westin hotel and then port to airport. Also, do you think we will do OK just getting a taxi from Westin to the port or should I arrange transportation for that too? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CupKayke Posted July 6, 2011 #2 Share Posted July 6, 2011 http://www.downtownairporter.com/ SeaTac to Downtown Seattle from $12.50 From their website: The Downtown Airporter is your easy, affordable transportation option between SeaTac Airport and downtown Seattle! We're the least expensive option - compare our rates, starting as low as $12.50 pp (one way with roundtrip), with a taxi at $35, one way. And, kids 12 and under ride free. Service operates between the airport and the following hotels: Crowne Plaza, Fairmont Olympic, Grand Hyatt, Hilton, Renaissance, Sheraton, Warwick and Westin. Ask your hotel front desk staff or call Downtown Airporter for details. By the way ~ we haven't used them yet ~ I was going to do a towncar or limo and then remembered them tonight so we will be using them for service to the Warwick. I can't recommend them (or not) until after September... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mapleleaves Posted July 6, 2011 #7 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Which pier ? If you look in the Seattle Sticky above there is info on taxi and town car fares. Keep in mind that both are stationed at the airport so no reservation is needed (also in the Sticky) This is a recent thread about towncars and fares. http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?p=29512770#post29512770 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan G Posted July 7, 2011 #9 Share Posted July 7, 2011 as mentioned there are towncars stationed at the airport regulated by the Port of Seattle. Flat rate of $45 to pier 66 and most $55-65 to pier 91. From Westin you can ask the bell guys but a cab is very reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
