Seattle Cruise Port Transfers: Pier 66 vs. Pier 91

In Seattle, the cruise terminal matters: Pier 66 and Pier 91 are different pickup plans.

Cruise transportation in Seattle is not just a short ride. It is a terminal-specific, luggage-heavy, schedule-sensitive transfer that should be planned before sailing day.

Pier 66 Bell Street

Pier 66 is on the central waterfront near Downtown, Pike Place, and many hotels. It is convenient, but waterfront traffic and loading zones still require coordination.

Pier 91 Smith Cove

Pier 91 sits north of Downtown at Smith Cove. It is a different terminal plan, and confusing it with Pier 66 can cost time on sailing day.

Airport-to-ship transfers

SEA-to-pier transfers should include flight number, ship terminal, passenger count, and luggage count. SUVs and Sprinters are common choices for groups.

After the cruise

Disembarkation windows shift. Dispatch should coordinate the pickup around your ship, terminal, and next destination — airport, hotel, ferry, or sightseeing.
