Seattle terminal

[Lover of Penguins]

What time does the Seattle terminal open to check in? We fly in the morning of our cruise but land at 8:30 AM...I figure we will get to the terminal around 9:30-9:45 after getting our luggage and travel there. Any help will be apperticated.

Thank you all in advance!

Only a guess on my part but I would imagine that you should be able to hand your luggage over to a porter/stevedore/longshoreman upon arrival to the Bell Street Cruise Ship Terminal. As debarkation will be almost ended the terminal will be open but not accepting embarkation passengers quite yet. As always, its a hurry up and wait situation will all cruise lines.

 

If you don't want to wait around the terminal you can walk along the waterfront, stop and get something to eat, people watch, etc. Not knowing if you will have carry-on luggage it's a fairly easy walk to Pike Market. Lots of vendors at the Market and across the street is the original Starbucks if interested.

You will be able to drop your bags when you arrive at the terminal. It is right on the main street,,,, not your traditional cruise ship terminal. Taxis are dropping off in the through traffic lanes and you are handing your bags to the porter on the curb.

 

Have a great cruise. Alaska is beautiful!

The waiting room is ok, they typically won't start boarding until 1130am. Pike's is an excellent suggestion.

Drop bags at terminal and go,up,to Pike Place Market.a couple of blocks away.

Get flower bouquet at flower stalls , watch salmon toss, take in the view of Elliot Bay then back down to Pier 66.you can bring the flowers on ship . We usually board around 11.. NCL has the best cruise terminal in Seattle. Princess and HAL are far away in Magnolia Pier.

Enjoy the beautiful views of the emerald city.
