Early EZ Air flight from Seattle

[JudithLynne]

I am looking at booking Princess EZ air flights from Seatac after a cruise in Sept.  I notice that the Princess EZ Air program lists allowable RT flights as early as 11:20 AM.     We have returned from many cruises using Seatac and have always been there very early so I am considering this flight over a mid afternoon flight.  We will be in Victoria the night before.

What would you do?  Thanks for any advice.

FYI, on the West Coast Departures board, the earliest recommended flight is 11am. With the new route to the airport, it is pretty quick.

Curious, what's this "new route to the airport" you speak of?

The route that replaced the old elevated freeway along the Pier 66 area. Took it in 2019...zipped to the airport.

To the OP- will you be docking in Seattle or Vancouver? You mentioned

that you will be in Victoria the night before which really does not indicate your

final disembarking location. If Princess says that the earliest flight that is ok

is 11:00 am then I am sure it would be fine. The port is not too far from Seatac.

You would get early disembarking time and normally this should be fine, barring any

unusual difficulties.

 

Also, unless Canada opens their ports, you may not need to worry about this at all.

Thank you all for you helpful responses.

Nini....we will disembark at pier 91 in Seattle.  

CruiserBruce, I forgot about that new route.

I am now feeling encouraged about this early flight.  As we are  Elite, we should have no have no problem getting off the ship early.

Thank you all.......

The question is moot since Canada has announced no cruises until at least Feb 28, 2022.  We assume your cruise involves Alaska with a required stop in Canada but because of the recent Canadian announcement all Alaskan cruises for 2021 will be cancelled.

Thanks Hank...I did figure that out but the information I received will be helpful in the future.

I think the Alaska 2022 season will be packed! So I would make reservations now.
