Cruise passengers arriving at the Port of Seattle this summer will be able to check their luggage through to the airport and receive an airline boarding pass before disembarkation.

Excellent. They've had issues with long check in lines, so this will definitely expedite the process. 

On our last Alaska cruise, it took us nearly two hours to check our luggage because of the crowds.

That's no good. Are there certain cruise terminals that are known for long lines? Which are the best?

Two hours to check luggage at the airport or cruise terminal?

At the airport after the cruise.

At the airport after the cruise, not at the terminal.

This sounds great.  I can't wait to hear more info about this offer as I will be doing the Alaska cruise in September!

Delta already has this service in Seattle.  When we returned from our Alaska cruise, my dad & his wife were flying Delta.  They were able to check-in to their flights & check their bags right there at the port.  It was a very nice service.  The rest of us were on Southwest and had to lug our bags to the airport.
