getting to Whittier from Anchorage

[jlee2070]

Hello,

So I'm considering doing a South Bound Cruise boarding at Whittier... I guess Anchorage (fly in here) to Whittier is about 65 miles.

What do you folks recommend for transportation? I plan to arrive in the afternoon at Anchorage and the Cruise departs at 9pm. I know the train might be a nice trip but don't want to spend the night in Anchorage the day before...

I guess a similar question for the Port at Vancouver (docking around 7am) and departing on an afternoon flight (around 2pm)... Transportation/what to do?

Thanks for the help!!!

In Vancouver - if you can stow your bags - there is a lot to see right around the port area. Ships dock right in downtown Vancouver, steps from shopping, Gastown and Stanley Park. then you can hop a cab or shuttle to the airport - or, if you are in the mood for a little GLAM - book a limo ride :o)
