travelinmoma Posted June 3, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Hopefully this will clear up any questions people have about port valet. This is from the Explorer of the Seas. We flew SW with a 1:10PM flight. It worked beautifully! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelinmoma Posted June 3, 2018 Author #2 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Hmmm...I'm not sure why it is sideways. Sorry. If you can't read it, I'd be happy to answer any questions. I will try to type up the most important info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelinmoma Posted June 3, 2018 Author #3 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Highlights: No service fee; no need to check in at airport; receive your boarding pass onboard; international and domestic flights accepted (only domestic on Delta); no overweight baggage fees. Eligible Criteria: Must disembark between 7:45-9 (they let us go around 7:20); your flight must depart on the same day your ship arrives in Seattle AFTER 2PM; you have a confirmed reservation with one of these airlines: American, Alaska, Delta, Horizon, Jet Blue, Southwest *****Southwest flights can be between 11AM-4PM only*********** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoyMouse Posted June 3, 2018 #4 Share Posted June 3, 2018 We used Seattle’s Port Valet Saturday coming off of Ruby Princess. It was wonderful. Our bags were waiting for us in Phoenix with no issues. Even the Lyft driver to SEATAC was impressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsbadguy Posted June 4, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I have a 4:55 Pm flight booked on Southwest Airlines, so I guess that will not work. For the other airlines was there any time limit on the flights? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
travelinmoma Posted June 4, 2018 Author #6 Share Posted June 4, 2018 For other airlines is just said "after 2 PM" with no end time. I had friends flying Alaskan Air with a 6:30 flight, and they were able to participate. This was what Royal sent out. It might be different for other cruise lines even. I'm not sure.

MommytoAsquared Posted June 5, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Ugh - I read the recent post about "Southwest flight between 11 and 4 only". We have a 430 flight so I called the Port Authority today to verify. They told me it depends on the cruise line. I think previous poster was on Princess. But it makes sense for other cruise lines as well...Previously, SWA would not take our luggage more than 4 hours before our flight. Has anybody on Southwest and Carnival had a flight later then 4 and used the Port Valet luggage service? Our flight is at 430. If this is correct, I am going to change to an earlier flight. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlsbadguy Posted June 5, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 5, 2018 I had the same question as I have a 4:45 PM flight on Southwest after cruising Celebrity and got the same answer from Port Valet when I emailed today. I posted on the Celebrity board to see if anyone has used Port Valet yet and to see if that was the case. For my destination the 4:45 Pm flight is the only nonstop, so will need to change airlines if that is the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syesmar Posted June 13, 2018 #9 Share Posted June 13, 2018 When To Arrive At Airport? We have a flight that leaves in the evening. If I take advantage of this service, how much time do I need to give myself to arrive from the Light Rail and go through security? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
