Sail Date: May 2009

This was our first cruise, so prepare yourself for the "cruise newbie" gushing to follow. We wanted to celebrate our 15th anniversary in a special way, and the Celebrity Infinity cruise to Alaska exceeded our expectations.

Pre-cruise: I arranged air and ground transportation myself. We flew out of Sacramento to Seattle on Southwest; flight began about ½ hour late, but landed close to on-time. We took Shuttle Express to pier 66 without any trouble—their check-in and pickup takes place in the parking structure, easily accessed by skywalk. Make sure you can tow all your luggage—practice at home! Arrived at pier at about 4:00 and checked in our luggage.

Check-in: There was some confusion about where to check in, but I suspect it may be that the dock keeps changing procedures, and not all the cruise check-in staff gets the correct info. We checked in very early, and were given numbered squares for later departure. We walked over to Pike Place Market to buy a snack and flowers. (Next time we will take smaller carry-ons so we can explore with more freedom.) We arrived back at the pier at about 6:00, but the ship had not arrived yet. Departure was scheduled for 7:30, so we checked into the waiting room. Actual boarding time was about 8:15.

Cabin Review

Lots of storage space. About midway between elevators and main lobby, but not too close to either.
