Cabs at Port in Seattle

[overthesea]

Does anyone know if there are sufficient cabs available post cruise or do I need to prebook a cab. If so, any suggestions. Thanks.

I would also like to know the cost of cab fare to/from the airport to the pier.

[Sandra Gail]

Cabs were more than plentiful, helpful drivers. If I remember correctly, I think it was about $25 to airport.

[Cartib]

There is a $20 pp shuttle bus from the pier to the airport.

For the shuttle bus is it just there or do you need reservations? If reservations are needed what company is it?

Thanks

Maybe I'm missing something here. What is the benefit of the shuttle at $40 for two people verses a taxi for $25 (plus tip)?

It is about $25+++ for a cab downtown - Seatac.

[DALLIEDOG]

We sailed out of Seattle twice the past two years aboard the Sky. The first time we took the shuttle and the second year we took a cab.I would highly recommend the cab, as mentioned it's about $25-$30 and more important you don't have to wait for the shuttle, especially upon arrival you can get to the ship ASAP while you might wait for your turn in line for the shuttle like we did for over 1 1/2 hours.(never again)

Does anyone know if there will be cab vans at the port? There are four of us (2 adults, 2 kids) and I'm not sure we'll fit in a regular cab w/luggage.

[Sandra Gail]

Don't know about cab vans but four of us (adults) shared cab. Each with one large suitcase and each had a backpack or tote bag.
