The best tip by far is to have a balcony stateroom, it is priceless, especially for the glaciers. When everyone else is scrambling topside for a good vantage point, you can be in your private room with a perfect view…. Again, priceless!

I experienced an Alaskan cruise in August 1996 on Princess Cruise line. It was the original Love Boat ship! What a glorious trip. Taking a helicopter ride to walk on a glacier was amazing. An Alaskan cruise is a must 🎉🎊😉🦋

@@Eatsleepcruise1 Neptune Suites are awesome. Eurodam, Zaandam, Koningsdam (aft balcony Neptune) are the 3 we have done Neptune suites. Nieuw Amsterdam (Alaska Aug) and Koingsdam to Hawaii from San Diego are up next. The level of service you get is awesome. We especially enjoy the Neptune Lounge for all concierge services. Koningsdam you get Club Orange access because Pinnacle Grill does not offer breakfast. All the other ships breakfast is in the Pinnacle Grill which is included. Pack lightly, because you get laundry services included with room. We especially enjoyed that on our 14 day full transit Panama Canal trip from Florida to San Diego. Allows room for all the souvenirs you end up buying and on longer voyages we had 3 dressy nights. Just sent suites and dresses to laundry and get them back the next day. It’s nice having such a large room especially on long voyages. After balcony Neptune has a massive wrap around deck to enjoy. Large room is nice on longer voyages. We enjoyed the Aft Balcony Neptune because of the awesome views. But, we found being at the back of the ship makes for a long walk, especially returning from an excursion day. Neptune Lounge is mid ship and even that seemed like a long walk after a while. I highly recommend trying it, but you could find yourself never wanting to book a lower level room after the experience. Safe sailings

Neptune Suites are pricey, however, we have splurged 3 times for special occasions or itineraries. Fortunate to have done aft Neptune suite on Nieuw Statendam and Koningsdam. Have booked one for a future 14 day Vancouver-Alaska itinerary. It is difficult to go back to a balcony after that experience, but we have done many balcony cruises as well. Love Holland America. Will be 4 star mariner’s this summer.

If doing a one way, the flights TO Ancorage have better flight times than those FROM Anchorage. Plus the southbound fare is often the cheaper one.

This is American centric. We have just come back from our first Alaskan cruise. We are from Australia. Can you remember people from other countries cruise Alaska too. So can you do centigrade as well as Fahrenheit in temperatures also kilos as well as pounds.

I know this is a dumb question, but how do I find a travel agent? Is the best TA someone who lives nearby, someone where you go into their office and discuss cruises? Or is it a cruise expert online? We do not know any others who love cruising like we do, so no friends to ask their experience...

Have fun! Which cruise line? We used BorrowLenses, but we think they were recently merged with another company. We rented a Sony FE 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6 G OSS Lens for a Sony alpha 6400. What type of camera do you have?

My suggestion is to not use Uber to get to your airport. I had a RC Quantum of Seas cruise booked for 5-20-24 and never got to the airport because of UBER not picking me up. Got charged and refunded for 7 rides that didn't happen.🥴
