In the past, when we have rented a one way car rental to board the cruise we drop one person at the port with the bags. The line to get on the shuttle bus is long and loaded with bags. I can usually get on the next shuttle because I do not have bags. The lines in the past have been quite long. If this is no longer true please let me know.

We booked three different excursions in Europe using this group thru Costco. The 1st excursion to ancient pompeii was very inadequate. We were picked up at the port by 730am with another couple. The other couple were on a different excursion doing Naples and Amalfi. Our driver spoke very little English and we were left at the site to enter Pompeii without a guide and an hour before it even opened. The guide who we eventually found only because her hat had the name of the company. She had to call to verify we were even part of her group. If we had not found her she would not have been looking for us and we would have been left on our own and worried about getting back to the ship in Salerno. At the end of our tour the driver was waiting wanting to leave immediately even though we were making one quick purchase. This was not only scary being left with no contact but the rudest driver I have encountered. The other two excursions were adequate but not any better or cheaper than those the ship was offering. I would not use this group in Europe again.

I am hoping that the cruise lines will offer a Baltic cruise minus St Petersburg. With the consulate gone and strained relations a cruise minus St Petersburg would be most welcome.

All hotels do. You simply check-in and leave when you want. There's no law that says you actually have to spend the night in a hotel room.
Most hotels do not let you check-in till afternoon. A day hotel guarantees morning check-in.
Can anyone explain best Seattle areas to stay?

I agree. I have stayed at Cedarbrook Inn and it is an oasis of tranquility by the airport. It is located back in a neighborhood close to airport.
