What is the past port to fly into as far as distance, ect. They all seem so far..lol? Thanks Nat!

I don't know what you are asking. Past port? New England to where?

LOL...sorry Dave, the word is "best" not past?
To fly into Seattle or Vancouver, ect?

Nat,
That would depend on which cruise you are looking at. If you are doing a roundtrip cruise out of Seattle than of course Seattle is best. If you are doing a North Bound cruise out of Vancouver you most likely would want to fly into Vancouver and out of Anchorage. Once I did a North Bound out of Vancouver ending in Seward. I flew into Seattle and took a four hour bus up to Vancouver. I don't think it is worth wasting all the time.

Nat,
I agree with Cruise Fanatic, also you may have a choice of which city to leave from depending on which cruise you pick, so that is something to think about, I had the pleasure of living in Seattle for 6 years and love the city but Vancouver is a beautiful city as well and I have taken a cruise from Vancouver. If you can pick your port and have not been to either city, which city interest you the most? It is a hard choice for me since I haven't been back to either for a few years. You can't miss with either port to leave from to head to another beautiful place...ALASKA ! http://bestsmileys.com/thumbs/7.gif

Thanks, we are looking into Princess, what is the main difference between the inside passages and the northbound/southbound as far as viewing?

Let's not ask the same thing in numerous threads. It gets confusing. Continue with the itinerary discussion here .

Since the question about the flights appears to have been answered, I'll close this one.
