New to HAL.

We have a cruise to Hawaii finishing in Seattle. We want to go to top of space needle then onto the airport but keep our luggage secure.

HAL have a airport transfer which includes a tour of seattle first. Does anyone know if the luggage stays with the tour bus rather than get transported to the airport separately?

Also, does anyone have any other ideas of how to keep luggage secure whilst visiting the space needle before departing for the airport later in the day.

Yes the baggage does stay with the bus -- your better bet if possible is to check out luggage direct which will allow you to basically put your luggage out the night before and then not worry about it until you get home. they check you into your return flight, provide boarding passes for $17 per passenger I believe + airline baggage fees will be billed to your onboard account. That way you could either tour Seattle on your own or take the ship's tour and transfer and still not have to worry about anything but your carryons.

I note that chriscc lives in England.
Is luggage direct now available to non-US citizens for international flights?

As far as I know -- Luggage Direct is only for US citizens flying in the US.

Take a ship's tour to see Seattle -- luggage will go on the bus with you.
