The downtown pier — closest to the hotels.
Pier 66 — the Bell Street cruise terminal — sits on the downtown waterfront along Alaskan Way, the closer of Seattle's two cruise piers to the hotel core. From Sea-Tac it is about 16 miles, 20–35 min, at $75 flat for a sedan — per vehicle, tolls and airport fees included, no surge on sailing day.
Most Pier 66 embarkations start from a downtown hotel the night before, and that is the easy version of sailing morning: a booked car takes the party and the luggage from the lobby to the pier frontage in minutes, instead of dragging suitcases along Alaskan Way or gambling on an on-demand car in the morning rush. Straight off a flight, the arrival leg is flight tracked and the driver collects you once you have your bags.
Bell Street is a smaller terminal than Pier 91, but the drop-off lane still queues late morning on sailing days — earlier is calmer.
