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).
Alaska cruise season runs from May until September, when the weather is comparatively warm and the seas are safest. Winter is not conducive to cruises, with choppy seas and concerns about ice.
