Haha - same here! I refresh every once in awhile to see if I can book it, but if not, then 🤷‍♀️

Thank you for the tip on Bartell's - I was looking for a sundries market nearby to grab some snacks and wine!

I did see that as well. I checked for the day my Ovation sailing was scheduled to be in Juneau, and there's 5 ships there that day. Still doesn't explain why it seems those of us checking our sailings this summer have seen this mysterious port disappearance/lack of ability to book excursions from a large number of itineraries. I'm half tempted to reach out to the independent tour company we've booked through to see if they have heard anything...

Same for me on our Ovation sailing departing June 2nd...

We just got off Allure (hopefully similar comparison since it's Oasis class), and had CP-facing balconies. If the doors were closed and the handle locked, there was very little if any noise. I'm a light sleeper and had no issues. If the handle was not fully locked and/or the door was ajar, there is definitely some background noise. For the most part it was nice music and not too much distracting noise.

Yes, we generally tip $20 per tour (for reference, there is usually 4 in our party - 2 adults, 2 kids).
