Seattle-Tacoma International
This will be the primary airport you will fly into when cruising from Seattle. The airport is located about
30 minutes from the ports. The airport is also surrounded by a large number of hotels and restaurants
within a 5 minute drive of the airport.
Finding Your Ride
The layout of the SEA
Airport is very easy to navigate. It has a bit of a boomerang shape to it. Once you reach the baggage claim
on level three you will be met with escalators and elevators to take you to the fourth floor. There you will find six sky bridges leading to the parking garage.
Your taxis will all be on the fourth floor of the parking garage where you can
find them quickly. Additionally you can take the Link light rail into the city by following the signs for
the Link light rail.
The quickest way to get to it is to take Skybridge 6 and follow the signs. Cost for the light rail is 3$ per
person one way. Down one level to level three is where you will find your shuttles and rideshare pickup.
