Seward to Anchorage NCL Transportation

[cynthialanderson67]

We are booked on NCL Jewel and bought air and transfers from them.  I can't find any info on how the transfer from Seward to Anchorage work.  Bus? Train?  Several departures times or everyone at once?  I know we dock way early in the morning and have to be off ship at 9 am.  But then our flight isn't till midnight.  So we are trying to figure out all the details to decide if we could book a tour in Seward then catch transfer to Anchorage later in the day or if we should take transfer to Anchorage then book something there that would pick us up and drop us off at the airport.  Even thought about renting a car for the day once in Anchorage.  Just no desire to spend 12 hours in the airport sitting around.  There are 6 of us in our party.  Thanks for any help you can give me.

You can book Alaska Railroad tickets on their site. The train departs Seward at 6:00 pm and arrives at 10:15 pm. There is also bus service. I read previously that NCL will open transfers around 50 days prior, but we are staying longer in Seward so booked the Goldstar rail on our own.

The NCL transfers will all leave in the morning, after debarkation. If you want flexibility, you would need to book your own transfers.

NCL transfers will drop you off at the convention center in downtown Anchorage. At least they did last year and in 2016.  They will store your luggage there and have shuttle service to the airport several times during the day and into the evening.

Have you considered Salmon Berry Travel and Tours?

Thank you all.  I ended up canceling the transfer with NCL and booking a tour through a private company that included a tour and airport drop off
