Getting to Pier 91 (Smith Cove Cruise Terminal)
Pier 91 is the Smith Cove Cruise Terminal, at 2001 W Garfield Street on Seattle’s north waterfront, between Magnolia and Interbay. It has two cruise berths, so on busy summer days two ships can be boarding at once, and the roads in can get crowded.
Cars reach the terminal from Elliott Avenue W over the W Galer Street flyover, then follow the signs to cruise passenger drop-off. Your chauffeur knows the way in, drops you at the terminal curb with your luggage, and on the way home meets you as you leave the terminal.

Tips for Pier 91
Ships are assigned to a pier by sailing, not just by cruise line, so check your cruise documents. Tell us your ship and sailing date and we’ll confirm Pier 91 for you.
- Allow extra time on summer weekends, when both berths at Smith Cove can be busy on the same morning
- If you fly in on sailing day, leave a good buffer: missing the ship costs far more than an earlier flight
- Keep passports, documents and medications in your carry-on, because checked bags reach your stateroom later
- Book your return ride at the same time, so your disembarkation pickup is locked in at a flat rate
Drop-Off and Pickup at Smith Cove
On sailing day your chauffeur drives in from Elliott Avenue W over the W Galer Street flyover, follows the signs to cruise passenger drop-off, and unloads your luggage at the terminal curb, where porters take checked bags.
On disembarkation day your chauffeur texts you when they are in place. Once you have collected your bags and left the terminal, you walk straight to the car, with 30 minutes of free wait time counted from your disembarkation group.
