brunolvr Posted August 14, 2005 #106 Share Posted August 14, 2005 We are definitely cruising to Alaska again next year and would like to cruise on the Star again, mainly because she cruises out of Seattle and goes to Glacier Bay and because we love the "Freestyle Cruising". Now we have to decide on a date. Probably 5/21; 5/28 or 6/4. Anyone else planning on any of these dates? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jrmende63 Posted August 21, 2005 #112 Share Posted August 21, 2005 We are booked for May17,2006 on the Carnival Spirit. We have inside rooms but maybe after looking at this board we will upgrade to a balcony! Our flights are booked as well. The thing with the flights is the return flight does not leave until 12:30 AM! so we will be in Anchorage for a few hours! But what to do with the luggage?? Any suggestions? This is our first cruise and first time to Alaska. It is for our 25th anniversary!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike2000 Posted August 22, 2005 #114 Share Posted August 22, 2005 10 of us are thinking of sailing the Coral Princess northbound June 5, 2006.Any one else? I'm not sure wut I think the coral Princess is doing roung trips next year.It is doing north and south this year but will swaping routes with Diamond princess. That is the reason I am on Diamond Princess next year. The Coral Princess was my first choice but was told it was doing round trips next year.

Kylie Posted August 22, 2005 #115 Share Posted August 22, 2005 I have the 2006 Alaska brochure and it says Coral is still doing one way and so is the Diamond. Coral and Island are Monday departures/Diamond and Sapphire are Saturday departures - same itineraries. RT from Seattle are Dawn and Sun on Sat. or Sunday.

Texoma Traveler Posted August 24, 2005 #117 Share Posted August 24, 2005 We'll be on the Carnival Spirit Northbound May 17th, 2006. At this time it will be just myself and a friend but more may be added later. I've booked a balcony on the Upper deck. This is a dream cruise for me and one that I didn't think I would be taking until much later but my aunt gave it to me just because. I'm just too excited for words.

Check the Princess roll call board, I believe I saw an entry for this date already. Enter Island Princess and your date information in the search box and it should come up.
