Would you fly the same day as your cruise? We almost never do… but this time, we did. Our cruise day started in Las Vegas, and the goal was simple: fly to Seattle, get our luggage, figure out transportation, and make it to the cruise ship on time. Sounds easy, right? Well… with us, anything can happen. In this video, we take you along for the full same-day cruise travel adventure from Las Vegas to Seattle, including the airport, the flight, baggage claim delays, the light rail, a surprise shuttle bus situation, Uber/Lyft decisions, and finally making our way to Pier 91 for the cruise. We also talk through the cost difference between cruise line transportation, Uber from the airport, and using Seattle’s light rail plus rideshare to get closer to the ship. This is Part 1 of our cruise day journey, and we’ll also be sharing the Seattle embarkation and boarding process in the next video. Would you ever fly in the same day as your cruise, or do you always arrive the day before? Let us know in the comments.
