4 ships in port - Juneau

I am on the 9/22 sailing of Oosterdam. With it being so late in the season, I was surprised to see there are 4 ships in Juneau the same day as us

4 ships is pretty standard. But, they don't all come in at 7 or 8. In our case, one was in at 7am, we arrived at 8, another at 10am, and the smallest ship at 2.

 

With the vast majority of ships sailing on a Saturday or Sunday, the peak days in Juneau are probably Tuesday,  Wednesday  or Thursday.

Makes perfect sense. I guess I hadn't researched enough and was thinking we'd see smaller crowds this late in the season 😂

The day we were in Juneau, the other ship was Ovation. A monster ship. They left port several hours b4 us and it made for a much less crowded experience in town and at the tram center.

When we were in Juneau last week. The bliss was coming in as we were leaving. Taking our spot.  But there were 4 ships in post at the time.   So there might be 4 ships.  But I think 5 come in daily.   

 

This time lapse video shows the Joy coming into Ketchikan and then another ship coming in.  Then us and the bliss jockeying around.
