WHY BOOK YOUR PIER 91 TRANSFER WITH KAMO

“Pier 91 has a single road in. On a turnaround Saturday, that road is the entire problem to solve.”

Pier 91 is the terminal people underestimate. It is further from downtown than a map suggests, the approach is a single road, and on a summer turnaround morning several thousand passengers arrive inside the same three-hour window. That is the whole reason this service exists.

We Know The Magnolia Run

Pier 91 sits north of downtown in Magnolia. The distance is not the problem — the single access road on a turnaround morning is. We time the pickup around it.

Room For Cruise Luggage

Cruise cases are not carry-ons. Tell us the bag count when you book and we size the vehicle around the luggage, not just the headcount.

Your Rate, Fixed Up Front

Quoted before you book and confirmed in writing. Nothing runs while the terminal queue moves, and the rate does not change because the road did.

*Estimated rates only. Cruise pricing moves with the season — Alaska turnaround days between May and September are the busiest of the year and can carry higher rates. Your final price is confirmed in writing before you book and varies with the date, time of day, exact pickup address, vehicle availability, luggage count, tolls and extra stops. Trips between midnight and 5:00 AM and certain public holidays carry a $66 surcharge. Gratuity is not included.

What The Pier 91 Drop-Off Is Actually Like

The terminal itself is straightforward — a proper covered drop-off with porter service, so once you are through the gate the handover is quick. The bottleneck is the road in, not the kerb.

Pier 91 is further from downtown hotels than most passengers assume. The Magnolia approach adds time a map does not show, and the single access road backs up badly when two ships are turning around on the same summer morning. That is the variable we plan around, and it is why we ask for your boarding window rather than a pickup time.

Getting dropped at Pier 91 when your ship is at Pier 66 is the most expensive mistake in this whole process. Confirm the terminal on your cruise documents before you book anything.

Sizing The Vehicle For Cruise Luggage

A sedan — Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Cadillac XTS or Lincoln Continental — takes two travellers with two large cases comfortably. An SUV (Cadillac Escalade, Chevrolet Suburban or GMC Yukon) suits four with full luggage. A Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van seats up to 14 with real luggage room. Browse the full fleet.

Cruise luggage is the reason most groups size up. Two passengers with two large cases each fit a sedan. Four with full cruise luggage want an SUV. Six or more — or anyone travelling with a wheelchair, a stroller and a fortnight of bags — wants the Sprinter van. Tell us the bag count, not just the headcount; that is the number that decides the vehicle.

Pier 91 Transfers: Common Questions

How much is a car from Sea-Tac to Pier 91?

As a guide, a sedan is around $95, an SUV $130 and a 14-passenger Sprinter van $220. Full estimate table above. These are estimates and your final rate is confirmed in writing before you book.

Is Pier 91 the same as Smith Cove?

Yes. Pier 91, the Smith Cove Cruise Terminal and the Magnolia cruise terminal all refer to the same place at 2001 W Garfield Street.

Which cruise lines sail from Pier 91?

Pier 91 handles most of the large Alaska ships out of Seattle, and assignments change season to season. Your terminal is printed on your cruise documents — check it rather than assume, because Pier 66 is 20 minutes and a completely different traffic pattern away.

How early should we arrive at Pier 91?

Work backwards from your assigned boarding window rather than the all-aboard time, and add an hour on a summer turnaround Saturday. Tell us your boarding window and we will set the pickup for you.

How long does it take from a downtown hotel to Pier 91?

Fifteen to twenty-five minutes in normal traffic, longer on a turnaround morning when the access road is queued. It is further than most people assume from the downtown core.

Can you take a large group to Pier 91?

Yes. A Sprinter van seats up to 14 passengers with luggage. For more than that we run multiple vans on one booking and one schedule so the party arrives together.

Do you meet us at baggage claim if we fly in the same day?

Standard pickup is curbside at arrivals. Meet-and-greet inside the terminal with a name sign is a paid add-on for sedans, SUVs and vans. We track your flight from three hours before pickup either way.

What if our ship docks late coming home?

Tell us the ship and the scheduled arrival and we monitor it. We hold the vehicle against your disembarkation group rather than a clock time. Dispatch is staffed 24 hours — call (206) 333-9605.
