Seattle cruise port news. 1  On May 16, 2016, Explorer of the Seas - the largest cruise ship on the US West Coast - arrived in Seattle. The ship's inaugural Alaskan cruise season had scheduled 7-night round-trip itineraries from Seattle to Alaska (Juneau, Skagway, Tracy Arm Fjord) and Canada (Victoria BC).
Alaskan cruises consist of two basic routes: the Gulf of Alaska, which covers the waters of Glacier Bay and the Kenai Peninsula, and the Inside Passage, which covers the eastern spur of the state next to Canada. The Gulf route tends to experience choppy seas more often, making the calmer summer months a better bet.
