Where'd you go hiking/running? Need ideas for next time I'm up there. I hit up AB Mountain, was an awesome workout but way too foggy to make it to the summit, unfortunately.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I just ran through town; nothing special or hard. Check out the Dewey Lakes trail system for hiking.

Look for the Northern Lights tonight if it’s clear 

I’m currently on ovation and would keep the package as a contingency. The staff is great and very  accommodating, but a lot of tables are unavailable due to social distancing.

Great photograph -- beautiful weather. You hit the sweet-spot there. Was anything still open in Skagway in October or was it mostly closed for the season?

We totally lucked out. No rain in any port last week or this. I hiked and ran in Skagway, so I’m not sure what was available. White pass RR is running. I saw lots of passengers returning with packages, so I’m assuming some stores were open. Town is just very quiet.

I take it WJ isn't open for dinner yet? Must be packed to the gills in the theatre and Two70.

Correct -WJ is not open for dinner. 

Today in Skagway

Um okay.

Leaving late  2 hrs I would thought an announcement would have been made.

Sorry to have bothered you.

 

No bother. There was no announcement that I heard. It just had no impact on the cruise.

That itinerary change shouldn't apply to this Friday. The weather will be better along the way. If you're on for three weeks, you lucked out in getting a change-up with Ketchikan. Congrats.

 

How have the crowds been aboard the ship? Steadily increasing each week or still at 35-40%

Increasing by about 500 each week. I’m hearing 3000 next week  but that’s unofficial. WJ is packed. Fortunately, I’m not impacted; I only go to 2 places - suite lounge and coastal kitchen. 🤣

You are having good weather today and yesterday.

But, why did ship leave 2 hrs late  from Juneau? Even Celebrity left before your ship

 

No idea. The captain didn’t consult me. 🤣

I’m currently on Ovation for 3 weeks 

Millie (and Ovation) today in Juneau

We just got off a 5 night Summit sailing & yes , the Oceanview was open for dinner. However the dining room was fabulous!

Thank you!

Here are pics of Millie yesterday in Ketchikan.

A good resource is the Celebrity App.   I had to look it up because I never went up there at night. 
 

For the upcoming cruise it is showing open even for late dining. On Equinox they had no self service and staff to place items on your plate. 
 

 

Thanks. I did see this in the app; I just didn’t trust it and was looking for independent confirmation. 🤣 looks like I’ll be all set.

Why wouldn't it be?  I don't mean that as a snarky question; just legitimately confused.  We were on the Millennium in August and of course it was open at dinner, but I wonder if I'm misreading the question.

 

Because it’s been closed for dinner on the 7 cruises I’ve been on since June

Thanks so much for this thread. I booked the 10/19 cruise today (while on RC Ovation for 3 weeks). I already had the 10:27 canal sailing booked, so now I’m on for 23 nights. 
 

Millennium and Summit are my favorite ships. 
 

anyone know if the buffet is open for dinner? I’m guessing it’s not. 

I’ve done Radiance several times in the past and if hands down has the better itinerary. However, I’m currently on Ovation for 3 weeks and this ship is amazing, especially the solarium. I’d still lean towards Radiance, but I don’t think there’s a wrong choice. Ovation does not disappoint.   Just depends on your priorities.

This has been answered.

I read the thread and don't appreciate your unnecessary hostility.

Florida has a similar site, but it is open to all shot providers (i.e., all shots providers enter data into the site) This way any shot you have in FL is recorded and searchable (no handwriting to decipher!). It is helpful in looking up if someone had the XYZ shot and don't remember when (or if). 

I live in FL. what's the site?

Looking at booking a 3 night cruise on the Dream for the first time in a long time. Do they beds in balcony staterooms split in 2? Thanks.

I hope they keep everyone but the suite guests out of the suite lounge permanently.  If Pinnacles (or anyone else for that matter) want access, they can cruise in a suite.  I'm tired of coming in and finding it mobbed.  

I agree, and I'm Pinnacle

I’m sailing Friday and still don’t have a cabin assignment 

In Ketchikan 

No Sitka. Leaving Ketchikan now for Seattle. 

The sun is out! Whales spotted off starboard side.
