2-Night Cruises Out of Seattle, Washington

A cruise is a great way to relax and unwind from the everyday pressures of life. Unfortunately, many cruise itineraries require such a large block of time that it can be difficult to find the time to get away. This is especially problematic in cruise ports with less traffic, like Seattle, Washington. Less traffic means less itineraries, which in turn means less short cruises. Even out of the Port of Seattle, however, there are a couple of cruise lines that offer itineraries as short as two nights.

Holland America Cruise Line

Holland America offers the majority of two-night cruises embarking from Seattle, Washington. There are really only two options available to those who are looking for a two-night cruise. First, Holland offers itineraries from Seattle to Vancouver. This voyage is especially well-suited to those who want to include a little off-ship activity in their cruise experience.

The other main offering from Holland is a cruise with only one port, Seattle. This two-night cruise simply embarks from the port, heads out to the Pacific and then heads back into port a couple of days later. Interestingly, Holland also offers a small number of one-night cruises out of Seattle. Fares on the two-night itineraries start at around $160 per person for an inside stateroom. Suites generally start around $300 per person.

Princess Cruises

Though it doesn't offer nearly as many short itineraries as Holland America, Princess does occasionally offer a smattering of two-night cruises embarking from Seattle. Princess also offers an occasional one-night cruise, as well. Most of Princess' itineraries offer service from Seattle to Vancouver. Occasionally, however, itineraries may be offered that travel south to either San Francisco or Los Angeles. Princess' two-night cruises out of Seattle generally have a price tag starting at around $150 per person for an inside stateroom. Suites, on the other hand, usually start at around $320 per person.

Other Cruise Lines

The vast majority of two-night cruises out of Seattle are handled by Holland America and Princess, as described above. Sometimes, though, other cruise lines will offer a two-night cruise out of Seattle. Other occasional providers include Carnival, Norwegian and Alaska cruise lines.

A great way to find specific itineraries is to use a travel services website, such as Travelocity or Priceline, to see what all of the different cruise lines are offering in the near future. Both of those sites have search engines that allow you to specify both the embarkation port, as well as the number of nights you'd like to spend on your cruise. You can also search by price, destination and other relevant factors.
