LACHIK Posted March 28, 2017 #1 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Sorry if this question has been answered elsewhere. Alaska cruise on Pearl in August out of Seattle. What is a safe time to book my flight home if ship arrives in Seattle at 8:00 am? No idea how long it takes to get off ship and get to airport. Thanks.

Markanddonna Posted March 28, 2017 #2 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Truth be told, you really can't predict. We didn't have any problems with NCL disembarkation and have taken Seattle Express back to the airport. The problem has always been the long lines at SeaTac, mostly with Southwest Airlines. You often have MANY thousands of people disembarking from other ships too. The lines can be ridiculous. So, my advice would be to not schedule a flight until after noon, and that is even cutting it close UNLESS you disembark as early as allowed.

Rare www3traveler Posted March 28, 2017 #3 Share Posted March 28, 2017 For Seattle, weekends in the summer months are prime freeway construction time. The weekend of August 6th and 7th is also Seafair weekend with the Navy's Blue Angel flying overhead- some traffic slow downs for that. The is also the weekend that the Seattle Mariners are having a special event prior to their 1 P.M game- another traffic nightmare. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamasylvia Posted March 29, 2017 #5 Share Posted March 29, 2017 That is what we are doing for our May cruise on the Pearl. We don't want to have to rush off the ship and ruin all the relaxation of the cruise. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
