A Regent Seven Seas Cruise vessel en route from Vancouver to Whittier reached the newly established Whittier Cruise Terminal on September 11, 2024, during a persistent rain. Ten sprinter vans were employed to transport passengers from the ship to the terminal where they were subsequently taken to Anchorage by bus. Luggage was transferred from the ship to the terminal building and loaded onto trucks destined for Anchorage. Regent Seven Seas Cruises operates as a wholly owned subsidiary of Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings.
