With Princess cancelling 2020 Alaska cruises, wondering how you will get to Skagway?   Buy a boat in Seattle or Vancouver?"    Fly in on your own?  Take the Alaska ferry?  I am seriously interested... Not being sarcastic🙂⚓️⛴🌈🛳🐬🐋🌅🙂

Princess has two ships still sailing Alaska starting in July form Seattle. Emerald and Ruby.  FYI Holland America also has two ships sailing. The Eurodam and Koningsdam.  At least as of now they are going

They have no updates in the website, but why ask here?  They have an 800# you could call tomorrow and inquire. 

 

I also imagine if there are cruises in late summer, the border will also be open again.  Not because of the cruises, but just because it's a sign of getting back to some resemblance of normal.

I tried the 800# and no answer that is why I tried in here.  Maybe I will try again tomorrow. Thank you

 I know PCL cancelled all of there Land and Cruise tours that includes the buses and trains for the rest of the season.  However what about the train in Skagway? Will the train be running or is that closed down as well?  Thank you!!

So I did call again, only because the first time I called the person really sounded like she was very new. I called back and they are not letting people disembark early. You must stop and start on the dates that the cruise has for the itinerary. She stated the Jones Act, but I don't think that applies in my situation. However it sounds like it is across the board. :(

I have done this before with Holland America for a different cruise. I have a cruise set for July on NCL Jade. I called them to see if I could get off early in Newhaven (Edinburgh) on the 13th instead of the last day on the 15th. I was told no they don't do that anymore. Does anyone know anything about that. I kind of want to call back to see if I can get a different person, because the other person seemed new to NCL. I just don't want to waste time if this is in fact true and they don't let people off in earlier ports. The trip is Hamburg to Hamburg. Any input would we great. Thank you.

I bought this cruise when they had explore 4 so it came with the signature package. Could I upgrade to the Elite Package and just pay the $10 more per person per day?

Thank you. Will be looking that up

I don't know if this was talked about much or not, what did they do during the dry dock? What was done to the ship? Was it just a quick touch up or a major refer? Just wondering. Thanks!

If I book a spa cabin on Holland do I get any extra perks to the spa? Do the cabins get anything extra. Thank you

Thank you. That was helpful. The pictures of the whale was amazing!

I am going back to Alaska this May. Going on Holland America Oosterdam. Should I buy whale watching with the cruise line or use a vendor once we get into port? Any advise about this. DH and I want the best experience seeing whales. What are your thoughts I would really appreciate it.

How much is it to purchase a beverage package? I can't seem to find that on Oceania's website. Thank you.

I heard that the NCL Escape is chartered 11/5. Is this true? I don't know if I have ever really heard of a big ship being chartered. I wonder how often something like this happens.

Is there a fridge in the studio cabin and does that include the Epic?

Yes we plan on getting a cab there and using one again to go eat breakfast somewhere. If anyone has any ideas on a good place for breakfast somewhere as well that would be great. Thanks for all of your help :)

We are leaving May 15th on the Getaway. My husband just got air and it arrives in at 6:40 am and the sooner we can check our luggage the better. It is early I know. Just don't want to sit and wait at the pier all morning. Any suggestions for us?

What time can I drop off my luggage at the Miami Pier? Our flight gets in pretty early and I don't want to haul luggage around all over the place :) Thanks for your hep

I also would like to know what Vibe is. Thank you :)

If I get the Aurea Experience does that come with drinks, Beer, wine and cocktails? I am not familiar with MSC. Thank You :)

Leave with luggage and all. Not to return.

What would happen if someone just walked off the cruise and flew home from lets just say Ketchikan and didn't get back on the ship? Just curious really.

If I choose late dinning and one day I want to eat earlier. Can I still go to the main dinning room but at the earlier time?

Is their different tiers for let's say for someone who cruises princess for the first time compared to someone who cruised princess many time. Are there any extra benefits?

Can we bring a personal iron or steamer?
