Seattle's Two Cruise Terminals
Ships are assigned by sailing, not just by cruise line, so check your cruise documents. Tell us your ship and sailing date and we'll confirm the pier for you.
Pier 66: Bell Street Cruise Terminal
2225 Alaskan Way, Seattle, WA 98121. On the downtown waterfront between the Seattle Aquarium and the Olympic Sculpture Park, with one cruise berth. Drop-off is in the curb lane on Alaskan Way, right in front of the terminal. Pike Place Market is a short walk away, which makes it easy to pair with a pre-cruise night downtown.
Pier 91: Smith Cove Cruise Terminal
2001 W Garfield Street, Seattle, WA 98119. On the north waterfront near Magnolia, with two cruise berths. Cars reach it from Elliott Avenue W over the W Galer Street flyover, then follow the signs to the cruise terminal and passenger drop-off.
Every Way to and from Your Ship
SeaTac to the Pier
We track your flight, meet you at the airport, load your luggage and drive straight to the terminal's passenger drop-off, with no shuttle stops on the way. The drive usually takes 30 to 45 minutes, longer at weekday rush hour or when several ships are in port.
Hotel or Home to the Pier
Many cruisers fly in the day before and stay downtown or near the airport, which removes flight-delay risk entirely. We pick you up at your hotel or home anywhere in Greater Seattle and get you to the ship within your check-in window.
Pier to SeaTac or Home
On disembarkation day we time your pickup to your disembarkation group, with 30 minutes of free wait time at the terminal, then $1 per minute. From the pier we take you to SeaTac, your hotel or home. Flying out the same day? Ask your cruise line whether the Port's Port Valet bag service is offered on your sailing.
Private Van or Shared Shuttle?
Cruise parties often travel together, with two or three suitcases each. A shared airport shuttle charges per seat, adds a fee for extra luggage, runs on its own schedule and stops for other passengers. A private Sprinter van with your own chauffeur:
- Carries up to 14 passengers per van, with more vans for bigger parties
- Leaves when your group is ready, not on a fixed timetable
- Tracks your flight and waits for the whole group
- Is one flat, all-inclusive price from $250, with no per-seat or extra-luggage charges, which often costs less in total than shuttle seats for a large party
Count Your Bags, Not Just Your People
Tell us how many suitcases you have and we'll send the right vehicle. If the bags won't fit, we send a second one.
- Executive or First Class Sedan: 1–3 passengers, about 3 bags (Executive Sedan from $120)
- Executive or First Class SUV: 1–6 passengers, about 6 bags (Executive SUV from $144)
- Sprinter van: up to 9 passengers, or up to 14 at full capacity, with room for 10 or more bags (from $250)
Pricing: rides start from $120 in an Executive Sedan, $144 in an Executive SUV and $250 in a Sprinter van, all-inclusive, with taxes, fees and gratuity included, no surge pricing and no extra charge for luggage. Your exact flat rate depends on your pickup point and vehicle, and you see it before you book.
Tips for a Smooth Cruise Day
- Book early in peak season. Summer weekends are the busiest days at both piers.
- Leave a buffer if you fly in on sailing day. Missing the ship costs far more than an earlier flight.
- Keep documents and medications in your carry-on. Checked luggage reaches your stateroom later in the day.
- Book both directions together, so your return pickup is locked in at a flat rate too.

Book a private Sprinter van: one vehicle carries up to 14 passengers, so your group of 8 rides together from SeaTac straight to the Smith Cove Cruise Terminal (Pier 91, 2001 W Garfield St).
