The 48 hours before you board are where an Alaska cruise either comes together or starts falling apart.

Most people do not realize Seattle has two cruise terminals three miles apart. This guide tells you which terminal your ship uses, which hotels are closest to each pier, and how to get there without guessing.

Inside: terminal addresses and parking costs for Pier 91 and Pier 66, hotels near each terminal, flight timing, what to do if a flight is delayed, and a 48-hour checklist from documents to embarkation morning.
