hi everyone!, after 25 cruises, mostly to warmer climates, we are ready to try Alaska. Just wondering since the late spring/summer is in season, has anyone cruised in October and enjoyed it. I know its cold, but is it perhaps rainy as well? Prices on the Encore are incredibly cheap, then theres the free airfare for 2nd person, but I am not sure if I can trust NCL not to put us on a multi stop flight from NYC. Any imput is appreciated! thx
