Pre- and Post-Cruise Transportation

We're going on our first cruise later this month. Sapphire Princess to Alaska. We're doing a pre-cruise night through Princess at a Seattle hotel and two nights post. We understand that if you fly in the day of the cruise that Princess will get you from the airport to the ship. So, if you're doing the pre-cruise night at a hotel, will they get us from the airport to our hotel and then to the ship the next day? Coming back after the cruise, will they get us to the hotel from the ship?
Thanks in advance for any answers/advice you might have on the subject.

I'm sure that Princes will not have any reps at the airport to assist you
if you fly in one day early for your cruise. However, you should check
with the hotel to see if they offer free transporation from the airport to
the hotel. Some do and some don't. I don't know Seattle at all and
don't have any idea of the cost for taxi service.
If you included Princess transfers with your cruise tickets, then
Princess would provide bus service from the dock to your hotel.
Many cruisers prefer to take a taxi rather than wait for 30 or 40
people to load up a bus.
You may do a search for Seattle on the Internet and find out
information about transportation and sight seeing tours of the city.
Good luck.
Here's wishing you fair skies and calm seas for your cruise.
