MSC Poesia, Mon, May 3, 2027

MSC Poesia sails from Pier 91, the Smith Cove Cruise Terminal. The previous cruise ends here the same day, so arriving and departing passengers share the terminal.

Book Seatac → Pier 91, Mon, May 3Ride back, Mon, May 10

Busy port day: 3 ships in Seattle (1 at Pier 66 and 2 at Pier 91)

Pier 91 has more than one ship this day, so the terminal curb and the roads to it are busier than on a one-ship day. Book the ride ahead, leave extra margin, and arrive in the window your cruise line assigned.
