Yeah it was REALLY bad foggy weather that morning. It cleared for a bit when we were at Mendenhall Glacier. Just enough to get some decent pics. But I can see why they cancelled helicopter tours.
Absolutely no way they could fly. If you saw people on the lake. That was me, there was 31 people. As you said above I wish there was a plan B for the glacial viewing. I just felt a bit cheated, I understand why we skipped it.

Regarding the ship missing the Glacier, that's unfortunate. I feel for you all.
Do you know if the Tracy Arm excursion small boat was able to get up to see the glacier?
Wasn't an option due to a short stay in Juneau. The helicopter tour's where canceled also. Unless you booked kayak or canoe trip you missed the glacier. Those trips where very limited due to time constraints and the national forest service only allowing limited kayaks and canoes at one time.

I was on the same trip aug 25. I didn't have any issues getting in the go karts. They refunded the unlimited pass when closed due to weather. It was a bit rocky the first night. The food was ok it got better as the cruise went on. I had some meals that where crap such as fried chicken. Other items such as the lamb chops and mushroom ravioli where on point.
The water slides where fun. Not for every one I did enjoy the large one that hangs over the boat. You go in a chamber and the bottom falls out and off you go.
I was beyond pissed about not seeing the glaciers. It's really the main in reason many people go. I found it unacceptable that a 20 second announcement was all we got. I did get to experience mendenhall glacier as I did the kayak excursion that I booked on my own.
Overall we had fun got some amazing pictures went into the Yukon. It was my first NCL cruise not sure I would go again due to skipping the glaciers. I understand weather. It cleared up fast and It seemed that they just said screw it lets skip it. Princess so far has been my fav line due to the amazing food and service. I'll try one of the new RC ships next. The wife has been on them but not me.

Had interior room on Bliss deck 5, I bid $95pp for 2 people and got accepted yesterday. $190 more I am now in a connecting balcony room (not being connected to another room) on deck 8! We are leaving the 25th so I guess it isn't sold out.

Is it still free to call from cabin to cabin from the in cabin phone? I would just pay for the app but we have a senior in a different room and they don't have a smart phone nor will they be learning how to use one in the next 2 weeks.
Bliss...why such a mediocre itinerary?

I was on the Bliss and been on the skyway countless times. I doubt it's safe to sail a ship that size under the bridge. The center span height would clear, the width would be dangerous.
