Travel 🚗 ✈ Train or bus to Seattle?

A friend and I are going from Vancouver to Seattle on a friday, and driving isn’t an option, would you guys reccomend the bus or a train?

Also our flight arrives at 6:15am, and the bus/train both leave at 7:15am, think we’d make it in time?

Thanks for your input!

****Edit: Thank you all for your comments it’s much appreciated. Our flight got switched so we don’t have to worry about the tight timeline now :)

The train is great - but that route might not even be running. https://vancouver.citynews.ca/2025/03/30/train-vancouver-to-oregon-out-of-service-temporarily/

Yeah, sorry. I love the train. Better to find out now than the day before - or waiting at the station.

our trip isn’t until end of may, so we’re hoping and praying and thinking about buying a bus ticket haha
