SEATTLE disembarkation @ PIER 91 & genr'l SEA ?

[4275princess]

Disembarkation 5/14 (Thur) in SEA. Princess advised luggage trans is avail with AIRTRAN airline @ $15pp. I plan on using the Princess Transf @ $49pp back to SEATAC. Is a 1:03 flight reasonable?

 

I may book a 5/15 (Fri) flight @ 11p, how much time would I allow to get from downtown to SEATAK? What is the most reliable/cost effective way to the airport? I've considered hotel car or Shuttle Express....any comments on transportation would be appreciated.

 

If I stay overnight, will there be cabs lined up @ Pier 91, any idea of cost for (2) to a downtown hotel?

 

I've considered staying @ the HOTEL MAX. They have a rate of $169 for Thur night, but offer a special for ($99+tx). Anyone stayed here...comments about hotel/location? Is this a safe area/centrally located?

 

I plan on doing the space needle, market & was advised could walk to either or take the momorail for $2. Suggestions for other "sites" as a "must see".... dinner near loc for about $25pp?

 

THANKS in ADVANCE for ALL your HELP...I rely on CC for all my cruises
