Tips for Cruising from Seattle
- Alaska is the primary destination: The vast majority of Seattle sailings head to Alaska from May through September. This is a seasonal port -- winter offerings are limited.
- No passport required (sometimes): Round-trip Alaska cruises from Seattle that don't stop in Canada may not require a passport (a birth certificate and ID suffice). Check your specific itinerary.
- Arrive early for Pike Place: The cruise terminal is near downtown Seattle. Arrive a day early to visit Pike Place Market, the Space Needle, and the waterfront.
- Compare with Vancouver: Vancouver is just 140 miles north and also offers Alaska sailings. Sometimes the same itinerary is cheaper from one port vs. the other.
Set up a price alert on any sailing departing from Seattle, Washington. You'll get notified when the price changes.
