I absolutely recommend the snorkeling excursion. You can find them online listed as Snorkel Alaska. Both times I have gone was in September, and you don't get cold. The wet suits are really thick and you are covered from head to toe. The only part not covered is just a little area around your mouth where the snorkel goes. It's an amazing adventure and you will see huge starfish, and lots of them, as well as other sea life. The guides will bring up things for you to see. Due to the thickness of the wet suit, it's hard to go underwater. The guides have weight belts, and if you are an experienced snorkeler, they will let you use them as well. They also have life preservers for people that are unsure about it.....we had a guy in our group that couldn't even swim, yet he snorkeled!
This sounds sooo cold!

\]I start in the morning with Bloody Mary's and Irish coffee, beer or fruity drinks during the day on sea days, then at night Martini's or Vodka Gimlets. I sleep good at night.Good Advice!

You can request an iron from your room steward.
They will bring it to your stateroom. And come back quickly to collect it since it is a fire hazard (you can't hold on to it, you have to be ready to iron when it comes).
Thank you!

can you request an iron, Or is there an ironing room?

I will not have time to get knives in Anchorage- my tour arrives at my hotel at 8PM and I fly back to Florida the next day. Are there other places to buy them? (Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, and tour into Denali.

my wife says they are useless, she always brings her own hair drier
Ye, they are the kind you have to hold the button the whole time to dry hair

Is there a difference between the two main dining rooms? DO they have the same menu, or are they different?
-
Norwegians new larger ships (Epic, Breakawy) cater to solo cruisers. They have a whole setion of solo rooms and a solo lounging area.

When I cruised in March, when you came back from your excursion,, they collected them and gave you a fresh one. (Glory)

At least Carnival replaced he ports. I have been on a cruise where 2 ports were cancelled and all they gave you was $75 OBC.
-
Formal Night on Carnival..means lots of money for them, with a photographer in every nook and cranny grabbing people to take pics. That gets annoying, paticularly when you take several cruises a year.
-
The dollar is strong, but the Canadian dollar is gaining ground 2 weeks ago $300 USA dollars got you $400 Canadian. today, it is about $377.

The knives look awesome, and a really different type of gift. Are they expensive?

I am on the Norwegian Sun and just looked..we are at berth 4. I have to meet my Experience Alaska tour (Wilderness tour and crab fest ) at the statue by the visitors bureau at Berth 2. How far of a walk is that? It there a shuttle?
-
What did you bid up to? If you bid and were awarded anything in the Haven, the concierge there can get you into anyplace at any time (as long as you are not a large group).
Sorry, just realized you said Sun which doesn't have a Haven, but suites have a concierge which might have the same pull.
From a balcony to a mini suite, and I hear the mini suites are awesome on the Sun.

I am doing a seven day cruise, followed by a 4 day Land tour. Are there opportunities for a float plane/helicopter ride there, especially to see glaciers? Or is this really only a Ketchikan etc. thing to do?
-
Yes, and she said it sometimes happens....what a load of crap..NCL TA's are not the best, and their website sucks!
-
I just called..All of my reservtions were knocked out when they upgraded me-i got my bid..Did not get the times I wanted..Not happy right now! I booked the restaurants 2 months ago! They said to go to guest services once on board to try and get better times... :mad:
-
I made three specialty dining reservations on the Sun and now I cannot find the reservation page anywhere to check the times. I even did a search for dining reservations, got no results...

I will let you know in 8 days! We are staying at the Marriott residence Inn Downtown.
