Best way from airport to pier in Seattle?

[WesC]

We are arriving in Seattle the morning our ship sets sail for Alaska. What is the best way for 6 people with luggage to get to the pier? Thanks!!

We only have a four people and didn't want to worry about anything on that day, so we hired a car service (Seattle Limos). The cost is $40. With six people you might require a larger vehicle and so the cost may be higher, but we were just going for "no hassle." I'm sure there are also some cabs that are large enough for six (mini-van size). For four, the cab rate and the limo rate were basically the same - so we went with the limo service. There is also shuttle bus service from the airport - these are listed on the SEA-TAC website if you want to investigate those further, but for us, and four tickets, there was no price advange either.

Take a look at the one-way rental with Thrifty to see whether they have a deal on a minivan. Thrifty tends to have rather reasonable rates, and they have a place on Pier 48, right in-between the two cruise terminals. They give you a free van ride from their lot to Pier 30/66.
