As the 2024 cruise season officially comes to a close in Seattle , city and port officials marked a significant milestone — the full electrification of all three cruise terminals. The Norwegian Cruise Line’s Jewell departed from Pier 66 today, capping a busy season that saw 276 cruise ship calls and 1.75 million passengers. Port of Seattle officials anticipate nearly 2 million passengers for the upcoming season in 2025.
"The average traveler that’s coming to see Alaska is a little more environmentally focused than folks who might be going on a booze cruise to the Caribbean," Felleman said.While not all cruise ships are currently equipped to connect to shore power, the Port has set a 2027 deadline requiring compliant ships to dock, making it a standard for vessels entering Seattle.
