Creator's Key Takeaways

We have yet to do a West Coast cruise port yet. So, for us, this is going to be a learn experience as well.

Port Valet is amazing out of Seattle. Check your bags from the ship and they will check them with the airline and you pick up back at your homeport.

NCL Pride of America is the only year-round Hawaii cruise ship that operates exclusively from Hawaii.

Book early. Alaskan cruises and excursions are expensive.

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Use Port Valet in Seattle to check bags from the ship to the airline.
βœ“Explore all levels of Pike Place Market for discounted meals.
βœ“Board cable cars at California and Market Street in San Francisco to avoid lines.
βœ“Take Uber to Queen Mary in Long Beach to save time and traffic.
βœ“Download offline maps and use transit apps for self-guided tours.
