Creator's Key Takeaways

It's only $3, and an Uber usually costs somewhere in the range of 80 on up. We're about to show you that process.

But for three bucks, I think it's well worth it. For sure, versus an Uber. 80, 90, maybe 70 if you're lucky.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Take the Link light rail from downtown Seattle to SeaTac to save significant money compared to Uber.
Be prepared for hills and heavy luggage if walking to the station.
Allow more time for the train (45-60 minutes) compared to an Uber (30 minutes).

YouTube Video Description

An Uber from downtown Seattle to SeaTac Airport was going to cost approximately $80—but Seattle’s Link light rail was only $3 per person. Saving $77 sounded like an easy decision until we had to tackle Seattle’s hills with all our cruise luggage! After our Star Princess Alaska cruise, we spent the night at the Renaissance Seattle Hotel. The next morning, we walked to Symphony Station and boarded the Federal Way-bound train to Airport/SeaTac Station. We show you the complete journey, how long it took and whether the extra walking and luggage handling were worth the savings. This option works best for Alaska cruise passengers staying in downtown Seattle before or after their cruise. Link light rail does not depart directly from Pier 66 or Pier 91. Fares and schedules can change, so check Sound Transit before traveling: https://www.soundtransit.org/ride-with-us/how-to-pay/fares #AlaskaCruise #SeattleAirport #LinkLightRail Chapters 00:00 $3 Seattle Airport Train Before or After an Alaska Cruise 00:28 Walking Downtown Seattle With Cruise Luggage 01:25 Finding Symphony Link Light Rail Station 02:20 Link Light Rail vs Uber: Price and Travel Time 03:18 Federal Way Train to SeaTac Airport 03:31 Airport/SeaTac Station to the Airport Terminal 04:13 Finding Your Airline at Seattle Airport 05:10 Seattle Airport Lounge, Food and Drinks 06:11 Busy SeaTac Airport and Our Next Flight 07:00 More Hubbard’s Journey Cruise Adventures ❤️ Love Traveling with Us?
