Transportation from Whittier to anchorage ?

[maggieq]

How do we find out our options for return flights if we embark in Vancouver?  Should that info be on the cruise line website.    Time we should allow for transportation and checkin for flight home?  Thanks,

You can arrange a cruise line transfer to the Anchorage airport.  The cruise line will let you know the earliest time to schedule flights.  Princess and Holland America both cruise in and out of Whittier and transportation to the airport will be by bus or train.  You can also schedule your flights through Holland America’s “flight ease” and Princess probably has a similar flight scheduling service.

Most flights out of Anchorage to the east coast are redeyes.  You will probably have most of the day free with a flight in the evening or even later.

Princess = EZ Air

Both of these are great options. When I went in 2016 we took the transfer from Anchorage to Whittier. It's significantly cheaper than going through the cruise line.
