Alaska bound

The Norwegian Spirit departed this afternoon, headed for SE Alaska, with stops in Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, and Prince Rupert, with nearly 2,000 guests dreaming of whales and bears, and all-you-can-eat buffets.

This cruise season Seattle will host nearly 700,000 passengers on over 170 departures. We at the Bent make a point of waving goodbye whenever we can. The ships return to early in the morning to wave hello.

There is a major economic benefit to Seattle, more than 1,700 jobs, $59 million in payroll, $208 million in business revenue and $5.9 million in state and local taxes in 2004, as well as potentially significant environmental impact.
