One of the biggest and most important reasons to bring your kids on a cruise, or any vacation for that matter, is making lasting memories.♥️

The best time to cruise is when school is in. It’s less crowded and less kids. Pre Covid when our kids were all younger we would take two cruises a year. One with kids and one without. It was wonderful. We have amazing memories. Two of of three kids are adults now and so the way we cruise has changed. Enjoy the time with your kids.

‘I want $500!’ Way to teach Jamesy young! She’s going to go far in life! I’ve only ever been on RC cruises and I’ve always loved them! This ship is my next big goal in life and now I’m even more excited to make it happen after seeing this!

Alaska is my favorite state! I lived in Anchorage for 5 years in the early 1970’s. You could drive 15 minutes out of town and be in places you’d swear no one had ever been there before. Beautiful place to live!

I’m so glad you had a good experience while visiting my hometown of Sitka on your cruise. I grew up here and I’ve lived here many years. I’ve always thought it is the most beautiful place in the world.

As a travel agent….please get passports! If you ever are on a cruise that goes to other countries and u miss the ship or get sick/hurt there. The passport will be extremely helpful to get back home or to a different port to meet up with your cruise ship. Glad y’all had an amazing time! I will be on the Disney wonder for 8 days on an Alaskan cruise in September. 😊

Is a passport necessary for an Alaska cruise if u are cruising out of Seattle and you are a US citizen? passports have a huge wait time right now
@DisneyAdulting
@DisneyAdulting Год назад
@@Tbaby9361 As far as I know for Alaskan cruises out of Seattle you should be fine with just birth certificates. However, each cruise line has their own set of rules regarding passports. So I would definitely check with whatever cruise line you’re sailing with.

We're going on a Disney cruise to Alaska, out of Vancouver in June...do you know if we'll be okay using a birth certificate for a 2-year-old? I just think it sounds crazy to get a passport for such a young child, but EVERY article I read says something different. Update: I found out he definitely needed a passport, so we did an expedited one thinking it could take 4-6wks & it literally came in a week & a half. I'm very happy we got it taken care of in plenty of time. Whew!

You guys look like you had a wonderful time. We went in early June last year, it rained the entire time and was our worst cruise to date. My 2 and 3 year got sick. I hope we can go back again one day when they are older and told to go in July or August. It was $10k down the drain by the time we paid for airfare, balcony cabin and cancelled excursions. We love RC but it was a learning lesson for sure.

This was so helpful. We have a 6 year old and twin 4 year olds and just did our first Disney Cruise (The Wish). I feel exactly the same as you guys. We found ourselves saying why did we even come too, because it's really hard yet still so fun and worth it. That was very well put. We didn't feel guilty leaving them at the kids club either. We are now planning the RC Alaska cruise on Quantum.

My favorite thing I’ve heard is to not call it a vacation and instead a family trip since traveling with kids is work and I love that perspective. Also not sure if you’ve heard of the bumkins smock for violet similar to a bib but long sleeve and goes over clothes and they have it in Disney! We take it everywhere for our 18 month old.
