DENNSDMNCE Posted April 10, 2010 #1 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Our family of three will be traveling independently to Seward to board the HAL Statendam in May. Does anyone know what time HAL starts the boarding process? The ship isn't scheduled to depart until 8pm and our train is scheduled to arrive just after 11am. Will we be able to drop off our luggage at noon or earlier? Also, has anyone experienced catching a taxi from the Alaska Railroad train station in Seward to the cruise ship terminal? I can't imagine that Seward has many taxis and was wondering how hard would it be to catch a ride. We're traveling with a toddler and four pieces of luggage so walking - though possible - might be inconvenient. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1Alaska Posted April 10, 2010 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2010 You should be able to start boarding around noon. A HAL bus will make continuous loops between the train station and the ship. It really is walkable; it is that close! Once on board and you have had lunch, hop back on the free bus and take a ride into town to see the Sea Life Center. YOu will have plenty of time and it is a great place for a toddler! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Budget Queen Posted April 11, 2010 #3 Share Posted April 11, 2010 There is a bin for luggage drop off. I am never in a rush to get on an Alaska departing ship. Yes taxis will be at the depot. It is about 1/2 mile to the ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
