Not Alaska but what I wore on QV to the Norwegian Fjords similar weather cold and rainy https://boards.cruisecritic.co.uk/topic/2876076-a-cunard-cruise-what-i-wore/?do=findComment&comment=63824857

Whilst a sweet idea I don't think his employer would welcome the distraction from his work. OK maybe close family but not sure I would want my kid accosted by random strangers 🤔 bit icky 🤢

This what my DH did on QV and on gala nights he wore his dark suit with a dickie bow tie one night and a business tie the other. Hth

Olbia Sardinia Italy 2019 we were on Marella Explorer 2

You would think they could put a bit more effort and imagination into the ports of call, same old same old could have been cape Verde, madeira, morrocco etc 😴

Lots of info on Cruise Fashion and beauty page Cruise Fashions & Beauty - Cruise Critic Community about Alaska wear. Most ships are fairly casual during the day and business casual at night baring Cunard who still have formal and smart attire nights. hth

On the day we are scheduled to be in Juneau in 2025 there are 6 ships due in at the same time 🙄🙈🤔 looks like will need to get excursions sorted out pdq with all those peeps descending on it.

The day we are scheduled in Juneau there are 6 ships due in 🙄🙈 in that case is it preferable to do a ships excursion or just get a private one booked early. Probably looking at either whale watching or dog sled camp 🤔

We are looking to book Virgin for our Alaska cruise out of Seattle June 2025 as they offer direct flights from London, is it best to book as soon as they are available for best price or wait a bit, ive been watching the same dates for 2024 and to me it looks like they get more expensive as you get nearer departure date? we'd be looking to book Economy Delight or possible Premium (business) if we can get a good deal. thanks in advance 🙂

We have,Alaska booked for next year and I pretty much plan to take what I took on our QV trip to the Fjords though slightly pared down due to luggage weight restrictions. I have crepe navy dress and some black silky evening pants that will dress up with blingy tops that will be for smart attire nights. I'm sure you'll be fine. There's lots of Alaska attire suggestions on the fashion board in cruise discussion forum hth

This was on their face cloth page. 😊 "It’s less than one month until Queen Anne’s momentous inaugural season, including her sold-out maiden voyage sailing on 3 May, and the official naming ceremony in Liverpool on 3 June. On Monday 3 June, all eyes will be on Liverpool Pier Head, which will be alive with activity in the lead up to a dazzling naming ceremony set to start from 4pm. Emma and Matt Willis will host this incredible event, and we’re proud to announce that they will be joined by Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and Liverpool Institute for Performing Arts, with a unique, one-of-a-kind celebratory performance. Later in the evening we’ll be keeping the celebrations going as we’re joined by more special guests, leading up to what’s likely to be one of Queen Anne’s biggest sail away parties ever. Special guests for the voyage itself include legendary musician Midge Ure and West End and Broadway star Rachel Tucker, who will be performing live. Whilst former World Champion boxer Frank Bruno and Olivier award-winning actress Celia Imrie will be hosting captivating Insight talks. If you are not able to join us in Liverpool, be sure to follow our social channels for exciting updates!"

I believe Cunards Queen Elizabeth is to be home ported in Miami winter 24/25 to do Caribbean sailings this is due to the New Zealand banning of cruise ships where she would normally before winter.

A lot depends on whether you are going West to East or East to west? Layers is the name of the game there's no such thing as bad weather only bad clothing choices so go prepared for all eventualities. Regardless of where we're going we always pack a light wind/rain mac being Brits we're used to 4 seasons in one day lol 😆

This is exactly what our OBC is used for our next 11nt trip.in Brittania works out at $29 a day for 2 of us so we got $330 each OBC so one lot of it will cover gratuities and the rest go towards our drinks bill cheers 🥂🍾

Didn't get an email but saw it on face cloth and agree tad pretentious a buffet is a buffet lol 😆
