Pier in Seattle?

[Jon65retired]

Can anyone tell us which pier Princess uses in Seattle in 2009? Thanks very much.

Princess and Holland America Line dock at adjoining ports on Alaska Way. I believe it is Pier #91. Of the two ships in port Princess is on the right or north side and HAL pas enter on the south side. Pier 32 in down town and NCL and Celeb. go out of if. Hope that helps.

Hi Gipper

 

Thanks for the info on the switch of piers in Seattle. We will be taking a cruise on the Golden in August and would have headed down to the pier by Safeco field. This must be the first year that Princess and HAL have used pier 91. Too bad because you miss a nice view of Downtown at sailaway.

I booked the Courtyard Seattle Downtown/Lake View and Mapquest showed that it was only 2.71 miles away from the Pier (specifically Pier 91), did I make a mistake?

 

Thanks,

Pier 91 is currently being built so yes it is a brand new terminal. It is north of the downtown area, in the Magnolia area of Seattle.

 

In the past Princess and HAL used Terminal 30 which was south of downtown. The cruise building at Terminal 30 has apparently already been torn down.

 

Celebrity and NCL use Pier 66 which is next to the Edgewater Hotel and across from the Marriott Waterfront.

You'll just miss a direct view of downtown. You should still be able to get a get panoramic view leaving from pier 91 as the will still have to pull into the shipping lane in Elliot Bay on the way around Magnolia. (my fave restaurant is right in that area

Thanks for the information. We are cruising on NCL and then Princess so we'll use both piers.

so glad I read this. I did not know they were changing piers. I would have gotten an unhappy shock when I drove to the wrong spot this summer!

 

Thanks for posting.

Can anyone suggest a hotel near Pier 91, or is it close enough to downtown that it would only be a short cab ride.
