Creator's Key Takeaways

I have been privileged to go to Alaska several times in my lifetime

if you're going on the Quantum of the Seas or if you're porting out of Seattle at that Pier anyway

we arrived late the night before embarcation and I always recommend that you fly in the day before

if you've got mobility issues let me warn you it is going to be a good bit of a walk on embarcation day

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Fly in the day before your cruise to account for airline delays
βœ“Book a shared shuttle from airport hotels to the pier for convenience
βœ“Print and attach your cruise line luggage tags in advance to speed up bag drop
βœ“Keep all valuables, cash, and important documents in your carry-on
βœ“Request peer assistance in advance if you have mobility issues
