We only consider cruises that leave out of Seattle & Vancouver & sadly I don't think I've ever seen an RCCL or Carnival ship leave from either. I'm gonna give Princess a call.

Explorer does round trip Sawyer Glacier from Seattle. Whenever booking opens up for 2017, we are going to try to book a Family Oceanview room. There are only a few on the ship. I figure they will book up quick. I wish there was a balcony option, but I don't think there is one on Explorer that is non-suite.

Just the DW and I went on Rhapsody of the seas in 2014 out of Seattle. Awesome trip. I am ready to go back with my kiddos!

My family of five is booked in one room on a couple of upcoming cruises. One is a Family Prominade stateroom on a Freedom class. The other is a "regular" D3 balcony on a Oasis. Neither of these rooms are suites, but they must be booked from a TA or on the phone. Our kids are young and we prefer to have one room. If you do some research there are some non-suite priced options for a room for five, at least on Royal. I am curious myself to see info on other lines about rooms for five.

We were on Rhapsody last July in Alaska. The bed was awful in our D1. It was like two hammocks pushed together.

Having said that, everything else on the cruise was awesome!

Possibly Derek Lewis, of Adult Day Care fame?

 

Last I heard, he went to Celebrity because Royal would not give him a non-smoking venue.

He was on Rhapsody July 2014 when we were in AK.

I don't know how many there are, buy I just booked a D3 for five people on Harmony for Feb/18/17. It is room number 11538, it has a sofa and a pullman. Was told by my TA that is was the last one.

Train is for sure up and going today,7/28!

DW and I will be on the 12:30!

We have a ticket Monday the 28th, Skagway to Fraser. I think we may have to switch to Plan B. This was a highlight of our trip. Maybe they will get it cleaned up by then!
