Would you recommend cruise transfer from AK port to SEA? Norwegian

[beth1299]

Our family of 5 is doing an Alaska cruise from Seattle in a couple of weeks. The ship is scheduled to be back in Seattle at 6:00am and our flight leaves SEA at noon. Should I prepurchase Norwegian's transfer for $135 or bet on Uber? We all have TSA pre-check and would like to eat breakfast on the ship if that will be offered. Thanks for any advice you can provide. We know what to expect from Florida ports but first time doing Seattle. We did not purchase our airfare through Norwegian.

Have you checked into Seattle Express?  We’re planning on “walkoff” and using them. Our flight is 11:50. Still have time to do breakfast onboard.

I think your question presupposes that having Uber arrange for transportation is less reliable than the charter bus service arranged by Norwegian Cruise Line. Given that the chartered bus will need to wait for all of its passengers to arrive at the coach, and have baggage loaded, while Uber will depart as soon as you and your family are ready to go, I would likely reject the presupposition. That is, I would anticipate greater reliability on having Uber arrange transportation for your family alone, than in having Norwegian Cruise Line arrange transportation for you family plus 40 other passengers. Have I understood your question correctly?
