I hope you do see a bear :) You're going to have an amazing time!

Yes, Juneau was the only port that we tendered; however, this cruise only tenders every other week--at least that is how it was this year. So we were just on the unlucky week that tendered, maybe you will be lucky. If you have a celebrity excursion with a start time soon after arriving in Juneau, you will be given priority to get off the ship. I would recommend this honestly. We originally were not going to a celebrity excursion in Juneau, but decided to just to get off the ship more quickly. For us, it was less stressful than getting in line to get a tender ticket and potentially not being able to get off the ship for several hours.

What time did the ship arrive in port? We are due to arrive at 6 am and I am hoping to walk off by 7.30. Not sure if it is doable,we are looking at a tour for 7.30 pick up.

We docked at 6am. The earliest time to walk off was 7:30 (self-disembarkment). That's what I did and was off right at 7:30, if not a few minutes before. I think the tour should be fine, unless there is some rare issue that delays the ship, but walk off at 7:30 is definitely doable.

Friday--Disembarkment Day

I chose the self-disembark option, because my flight was at 11:18am from SeaTac. My mom, dad, and brother didn't fly out until 6pm, so they chose the latest disembark time (9:30am). I went to the gangway line around 7:15am and it was so long, I got a little nervous, but just before 7:30am it started moving. Once it begin to move, the line went fast. I got off the ship, handed in my customs form, and went straight to get a taxi. I was in a taxi by 7:32am, and at the airport just after 8am. Baggage check and security were also short and I was at my gate by about 8:25am---3 hours early!! :( I got some food, and worked on an application for my new job (I had interviewed and was all but hired, but never filled out an application). My flight left on time. I flew Delta and it was a nice easy flight. I was home by 8:30/9pm.

Unfortunately, SeaTac/Celebrity does not do the valet luggage transfer anymore, so my mom, dad, and brother had to go to the airport right from the ship. They had a nice leisurely final breakfast at the Oceanview Cafe, and then waited in one of the public areas until their number was called right at 9:30. They had to wait a little bit for a taxi, but not too long. At the airport that had to wait until 2pm to check in their bags, so they just sat and waited for several hours. Not ideal, but they had no other choice. Finally the flight left at 6:00pm. They had to change planes in Arizona and then took a red-eye back home to Columbus. Landed around 5:30am and were home by 6:30/7am----LONGGGGGGG day for them!

Final Thoughts

We had a fantastic vacation! We loved the cruise, we loved Celebrity, we loved our Veranda rooms and the specific deck 8 starboard side forward location, and we LOVED Alaska! My mom, who was most nervous about whether she would like cruising, is already talking about other locations to cruise. My dad and brother would be on another cruise in an instant, as would I. I'd do Alaska again in a heartbeat as well, although I think I'd like to cruise to other locations first before repeating Alaska.

Thursday-Victoria

Most of this day was at sea, so we had a relaxing breakfast and the Oceanview Cafe. We went to Amanda's Titanic Last Song lecture which was really interesting. At 3pm we went to the Illusionist which we also really enjoyed. After the Illusionist, we went to pack up our room before Victoria. I also went to the guest relations to see about printing my boarding pass for the next day because I had a fairly early flight out of Seattle. The line was long. They had a separate line for airline check-in and ticket printing, but it was slow and then I realized I didn't have my credit card to pay for my checked bag, so I got out of line and decided I'd return later that evening.

We got off the ship soon after docking in Victoria. We walked to town--about 15 minutes and a very pretty walk. We saw Parliament, the Empress Hotel, and walked down the main street. We went to a few of the shops and Lulu lemon. Lulu prices were the same as in the USA, but since it was Canadian dollars it worked out to be a little less for the products :)

There wasn't much else to do, so we walked back to the ship and went to the Oceanview Cafe for dinner. They stayed open serving dinner later for this port. We got back around 8:30/9 and enjoyed a relaxing final dinner aboard the ship.

After dinner I went back down to guest relations with my credit card, but was told I would have to go to use the computers in the library! I was a little annoyed because I saw people using their computers and printing tickets earlier in the day, but now I would have to pay to use the internet just to print my boarding pass. It's about $5 for 5 minutes, so I logged in and raced to get check-in, pay for luggage, and print my ticket. I did it all in about 4 and a 1/2 minutes, but that time is what cause us to go over our OBC more than the 23 cents that we had originally. Not a huge deal, but a little frustrating that they wouldn't print it for me at guest relations like they had earlier. And it turns out that I had plenty of time at the airport and didn't even need to have pre-printed anything.

We were certainly sad that it was the last night. We had a wonderful vacation! I'd go back in a heartbeat.

Disembarkment day to come....

Wednesday-Sea Day

This sea day was more relaxing than the first day at sea. There were less activities that were interesting to us, so we had more time to just enjoy the day. The seas were a little rougher that day. I took Zumba class in the morning and one lady left after 5 minutes because she was about to be sick. My mom also felt victim of the seas. She was fine in the morning, but made the mistake of going to the Sky Lounge on Deck 14 for the Art Auction. Being at the front of the ship and high up didn't settle well with her stomach. She spent the rest of the afternoon watching a movie and laying in bed. I told her to take 2 Dramamine (she only took 1), and to sit in the middle of the ship on a low deck, but she didn't listen to me. I did notice a lot of people were sitting in the middle of the ship on lower decks, so I assume it was due to the seas. My dad and I actually spent part of the afternoon in the Sky Lounge on Deck 14 and had a great time (clearly we were not bothered by the seas). This afternoon was one of my favorite times on the ship. There was only one couple and one small group up in the lounge with us and we all spent the time whale watching. We saw a TON of whales blow. They were all over. No jumping or anything super exciting like that, but it was still really fun.

I went to the Amade show that evening by myself. I enjoyed it, especially the section with the three female dancers on wires in the air and dancing with three male dancers that were standing on the stage. That section was beautiful! After the show, we went to the 2nd "evening chic" night and our final time eating in the MDR. My mom did make it, but barely. At dinner I forced her to finally take two Dramamines and drink ginger ale. Those, with the combination of being on deck 3 and at the back of the ship caused her to feel much better by the end of dinner. Sometimes daughter knows best :D

Dinner was so good. I got the Beef Wellington. It was something I've always wanted to try, so I was happy to finally have the chance. My dad and brother got beef wellington too, plus a lobster to split.

Wonderful meal to end our MDR experience with!

We went to the casino after dinner and then went to a few of the shops to spend the rest of our OBC. I got a ridiculously expensive Michael Kors shirt and my brother got a Nautica shirt. My mom got some Chanel eye liner and decided to purchase our embarkment photo from Seattle ($25!! :eek:). And my dad got two hats. It was kind of fun buying things without worrying about prices since we had our OBC. We were also glad that we did our shopping that night, because the next day was very crowded! Especially since it was all closing when we got to Victoria.

In the end we went over our OBC by $5.23 (should have only been over by 23 cents, but more on that extra $5 later).

All and all 3/4ths of us had a nice day at sea.

Glad you guys are enjoying the review.

Tuesday--Skagway

We took the 8:30 am round trip White Pass Train to the Canadian border and back. It was a gorgeous ride! It was nice to see some of the inland areas of Alaska. Our train lucked out actually, because there was a train traffic jam at the Canada/USA turn around spot, so our conductor took us all of the way up to Fraser, Canada to turn around. We got to see a little more beautiful scenery and the best part was--during that extra section in Canada we saw a BLACK BEAR! :) I was so excited. Bears are my favorite animal, although I prefer not to see one while hiking. A bear from the train was perfect. He was wandering around right by the train tracks and then after the turn around he was still in the same spot, so we got to see him twice.

After the train, we went back on board to eat lunch at the Oceanview Cafe, and then it was back off the ship to explore the city of Skagway. We were surprised with all the jewelry shops (Skagway and other ports as well). We stopped in one out of curiosity and the employee told us they come up to open up shop in the summer months and then go back to their homes in the Caribbean to sell jewelry in the fall, winter, and spring months. Apparently summer is a slow time in the Caribbean (who knew!!!).

My brother walked to the Drudge that he saw from the train. He's really interested in that type of thing, so just wandered in the direction until he found it. He said there were gold panning tours there, but he was able to pay a $15 entrance fee to enter the grounds. He got to sit on the drudge and watch a video and a few other things, so he enjoyed it a lot. On the way back, he noticed some laundromats that advertised having showers as well. Apparently some houses in Alaska don't have showers, so people shower at the laundromat! Crazy! Such a different world.

We boarded the ship around 5:00. My mom and brother went to "Not the 3 tenors" (I believe that was the show that night). They said it was good, but they wished they had sang more and talked less, because they were quite talented. But the comedy was part of their act I guess. I stayed in the room and enjoyed some cheese, fruit, (both picked up from the oceanview cafe) and wine (the bottle that I boarded with in Seattle) on the balcony. It was a gorgeous day weather wise, so it good evening to enjoy the balcony.

Again, we went to the MDR for dinner.

Drinks and Dining Info

We did not do any of the specialty dining, we figured the cruise was enough money and food was included so why pay more. Obviously mannnyy people enjoy the specialty restaurants, and maybe on another cruise we will give one a try, but we were not disappointed with the included food choices--MDR, Oceanview Cafe, and Hamburger pool side place.

We also did not do any drink packages. We had quite a bit in on board credit and are not huge drinkers, so we just purchased all drinks with our OBC. My mom does not drink, and my dad, brother, and I only got 1 drink each at most per day. I also used the OBC for my vanilla latte at Cafe Al Bacio. We did each bring on a bottle of wine, a 12 pack of bottled water, and my brother brought on Coca Cola because he likes to have one per day, but didn't want to use the OBC to do so. And the Oceanview cafe had water and juices available 24 hours a day.

Monday Morning--Endicott Arms and Dawes Glacier

This was the morning (early morning--6am-10am) that made our Veranda room truly worth it. We ordered breakfast to our room, put on layers, and spent 4 hours taking in the beauty and pure air of Alaska. It was incredible! At Dawes glacier the captain spun the ship so both sides of the ship had a view. When the port side of the ship had the glacier view I went to a public deck to view and was glad that I did because that is when the glacier had a significant sized calve.

Monday Afternoon--Juneau

We tendered in Juneau. We were going to do the white or blue bus to Mendenhall, but due to the tendering we got nervous about the delay getting off the ship, so we used part of our OBC to purchase the 2pm celebrity excursion to Mendenhall. We were one of the first tenders off because of this and were off to the glacier. I loved Mendenhall. Thought it was beautiful. We hiked to Nugget Falls, which was fun. We only got about 90 minutes at Mendenhall and I definitely wish we had longer, but oh well. We tried to avoid spending money on food at the ports since we got it on the ship, but we did stop at a Korean BBQ food cart for chicken and pork skewers when we got back from Mendenhall. Perfect snack! $4 for a skewer.

It rained some while we were at Mendenhall, but as we got back to Juneau the sky cleared and the sun started to peer our which gave us perfect weather for the tram. We went up Mt. Roberts Tram and hiked around there. After that we went to a few shops and then got a tender back to the boat. We still were able to catch our 8:15 MDR time which was nice. Because of the early morning and long day in Juneau we headed to bed soon after dinner.

Saturday--Sea Day

I went to Zumba class in the morning and my mom walked around the outside track. Zumba was fun, the teacher was great and there were all levels in attendance. We ate at Oceanview cafe for breakfast and lunch. Both meals were good, my mom loved the eggs made to order, my dad enjoyed the waffles, I liked the mini biscuits with some eggs, and my brother isn't a big breakfast eater so didn't eat breakfast.

We spent the day going to different activities that the ship offered. We went to Brent Nixon's Alaska talk--as many have mentioned in the past, it was great and I'd highly recommend it. We saw part of the Hot Glass Show--it was interesting, but long. We also went to the evening theater show--Broken Strings...it was ok. Dinner was at the MDR--first formal night. Everyone that I saw was dressed nicely. We hit up the casino after dinner and played some slots--we lost quickly.

Sunday--Ketchikan

We pulled into Ketchikan early on Sunday. Being on the starboard side we were able to see the town from our room. Got some nice landscape/general Ketchikan pictures from the balcony before we got off the ship. We had breakfast in the Oceanview Cafe before we got off. We had a slight issue in the morning which sent me into a slight panic. I was going to leave it out of my review, but thought I'd share so others can avoid the potential situation as well. The morning of Ketchikan I went to our safe to get our excursion tickets and wallets out and the safe wouldn't open. I was entering the correct code, but kept getting an error. I used my birth year as the code so I wouldn't forget. I immediately told our room attendant and he called his manager. Well, this manager was the only person that I encountered the entire cruise that wasn't quick to fix issues and wasn't very polite. All and all it took an hour for her to come. Our room attendant called 3 times and we went to guest relations and they called one time. She finally came when we were headed back from guest relations and she beat us to the door by 1 minutes. Well she apparently couldn't wait for one minute even though she was told we were on our way. So our room attendant had to call AGAIN! She finally came and wasn't very apologetic or nice about it. She told us that the safes malfunction sometimes and this was a common problem. So just be forewarned...get items out of your safe early in case you encounter a problem. I had to rush through breakfast in order to make my 9:30am meeting time for my excursion, I made it though--phew.

My brother and I did the Bear Creek Zip Line excursion. We purchased through Celebrity prior to the cruise. The price difference between booking through Celebrity and Bear Creek itself was about $10 so it was just easier to book through Celebrity. Zip Lining was awesome! I am scared of heights, but had no fear on the course. I think its the fact that I'm holding on to the handles while zip lining makes me feel more comfortable and secure.

My parents spent the morning wandering around Ketchikan. They did the Totem Pole Park and something else. They also tried to go to the Southeast Alaska Discovery Center, but were told they were closed on weekends due to lack ticket sales. I'm surprised they didn't cater their hours to cruise ships.

We met up with my parents in the afternoon at Creek Street. We wandered around there and hit a few of the shops throughout Ketchikan and then headed back to the ship around 2:30/3. There was a bit of a line to get back on, but it went fairly quickly and the hot chocolate we received when we boarded was a nice touch.

We went to the Sky Lounge for a drink and to relax before our 8:15 MDR time.

Embarkment Day

Check out of the apartment we stayed at was 11am (I remembered the company we rented from--Stay Alfred). We walked out of the apartment doors at 11am on the dot! My cousin offered to drive us to Pier 91 before heading back to Portland which was nice! We got to the pier around 11:15/11:20, but there was a loooong line to the drop off point. Once we got out of the car our luggage was whisked away, we said our goodbyes to my cousin, and we were off to check-in. First was the line to go up the escalator. The line was pretty long, but went fairly quickly--10 minutes or so. Once we were up the escalator, we waited in line to go through security and show passports. That was also pretty quick--less than 10 minutes. The final line was to officially check-in. This was the longest/slowest line, but still not bad. Once we got in the check-in line to being fully checked in it took about 20-25 minutes. Concierge class got to skip all of these lines and had their own check-in, but being in a Veranda room we stood in all the lines. It honestly wasn't bad at all, all of the employees were nice and helpful and tried to get everyone through as quickly and efficiently as possible.

Finally it was time to board! We walked right on, received our champagne and mimosas and then said "now what?" This was my second cruise (and second on celebrity) and the rest of my families first, so we weren't sure what to do. The crew was so nice and helpful our entire cruise, but stepping board onto the ship was the one time we wished we had a little direction. My mom, dad, and brother were hungry, but we didn't know where the buffet was. Luckily, as we got on the elevator I randomly pushed the correct deck number (didn't notice the directory on the top of the elevator at that point). So, we found the Oceanview Cafe (buffet), observed our myriad of options for lunch, and filled our plates. It was crowded, as it was most of the cruise during meal times, but we were lucky and found a table for 4 fairly quickly. Around 1:15pm an announcement came over the loud speaker telling us the rooms were ready. The announcements in the Oceanview cafe is my second and probably last complaint of the entire cruise---I wish they were louder, most of the time I could not hear what was being announced. Waiters came around to tell us the rooms were ready as well, which is how we officially knew. We finished up lunch and headed to our rooms. Since our luggage was not yet there, there wasn't much to do in the room. We checked out the room--good size for two people. King sized (I think) bed--which we had split, a couch that could hold 3 people, and bathroom with a decent sized shower; and of course the balcony! :) Deck 8, starboard side, toward the front, no obstructed view. A perfect spot! Something I liked about our room placement on deck 8, was that the inside rooms opened to the port side, so we only had doors on one side of the hallway. This reduced door-slamming noise and hallway traffic. Another bonus of deck 8, is the deck is only cabins, so hallway traffic is limited mainly to people with rooms on the deck. I kept thinking how obnoxious it would be to be on deck 3 when everyone is walking through your hallway to get to the MDR (maybe it's not bad--I can't say, but it just seems like it might be a little loud around dinner times).

My mom and I set our purses down, and took only my phone (to take photos) and sea passes, and were off to explore. We wanted to get a lay of the land and see what all the ship had to offer. Everything looked great and we were so excited to spend a week on board. I also signed up for a Zumba class for the following morning when we went to check-out the gym. We checked out manicure/pedicure pricing, but man oh man was that expensive! We said no thanks and keep moving.

Next was the safety drill. Our safety drill spot was the theater. Not much to tell, we went, we saw a video, we left. The only thing I was curious about was those people that were no shows (since it's mandatory). They called them off at the end of the drill, but I don't know what happen.

Back to the room and our luggage as arrived. We unpacked a little--my mom more than me. I put a few things in drawers, hung up a few things that might wrinkle and then was over it. We also met our cabin steward and his assistant. We asked them to empty the refrigerator, separate the beds, and for an extra towel. All requests were quickly taken care of. Both were wonderful! We went up to the deck 12 for sail away. It was an overcast day, but a nice day to be outside.

Back to the rooms once more to shower and change for the show. The first nights' show was a comedian. We were not impressed. A group of girls next to us LOVED it! But we didn't think he was that funny. We also thought Brent Nixon's intro was a little odd, but I had heard such good things about him that I insisted we go check out his lectures the next day. My dad has some hearing issues and had the hardest time understanding him so refused to go to his lectures--he was MUCH more clear and understandable during his lectures as my mom and I found out the next day so I wish my dad had given him a second chance--but oh well, his loss. (My brother, a Cavs fan was busy watching the Warriors and whoever they were playing in basketball, so didn't attend the show).

Then it was off to dinner. We did Traditional dining at 8:15. I was not happy about this time originally (my mom chose it), because I usually eat at 6pm. But with ports until late in the afternoon and evening, and an early evening pizza or pasta snack from oceanview cafe, I actually really enjoyed the 8:15 time. We ate in the main dining room every night except Victoria night, and thought the food was excellent. We weren't thrilled about the top chef menu and maybe one other night also, but the "Classic favorites" (I think that's what they called it) had good choices, so those were an easy back up if nothing else appealed to us. I had the chicken from the classic side a few nights and enjoyed it a lot!

After dinner we were pretty tired so it was off to our cabins and to bed.

I wasn't going to write a review, because I've seen several others from the same cruise, but I've noticed that it seems like most cruisers on here had Suites or Concierge class (at least most reviews seem to be). So I thought I'd write about my experience on a Veranda.

Background

I traveled with my parents and brother (we are all adults). We booked the cruise in mid-march of this year--must later than most people I've noticed, but got the pick 2 deal (we chose $150 on board credit each, and prepaid tips). We had two veranda rooms on the 8th deck. We did the room guarantee because it was cheaper and all that was left to pick were rooms with obstructed views, so we figured the worst that could happen is we get a the obstructed rooms. We lucked out because our rooms were about 4 doors away from each other and had no obstruction. We were starboard side toward the front of the ship. Good location and pretty quiet--only noise was neighbors...there was 2/3 year old kid laughing and running around till 10pm. Not a big deal.

Seattle

We arrived in Seattle on Wednesday. My mom and I came from New Jersey. My mom was visiting me prior to the cruise for my grad school graduation. We had a direct flight on United, left around 12:30pm EST and arrived at 3:00pm PST. Easy flight! My dad and brother were flying from Ohio. No direct flights from there so they went from Columbus to Oakland to Seattle. They flew Southwest and their Columbus flight left at 5:00am EST! So they had a looonnng day! They arrived in Seattle around noon PST. My dad and brother took an Uber from the airport to the apartment we rented for two nights. The apartment was in Belltown. It is on AirBNB, but we rented it directly through the company. These apartments are set aside for short term rentals. (I'm blanking on the name of the company we rented through, but I can find out if anyone is interested). Check-in wasn't until 3:00, but we were told if the key was in the garage lock box then we could get in early. My dad and brother were in luck, because when they arrived around 1pm the key was there. When my mom and I landed at 3pm, we also took an uber to the apartment. We walked to Whole Foods (about 15-20 minute walk) to get food for dinner and breakfasts.

On Thursday, we met up with my cousin that drove up from Portland. We did Pike Place (saw the first starbucks, bought some cheese, saw the fish throwing, and beautiful flowers). We then walked to Pioneer Square to take the Seattle Underground Tour. On the way we saw filming for the second Fifty Shades of Grey movie. None of us are fans, but it was still kind of fun to see. They were shooting a car chase scene, so we saw the car zooming around a corner, stop, back up, and do it again. After the underground tour--which was pretty interesting, we ate at some restaurant (again I can't remember the name--sorry). We then met up with my cousins friend and we all went to the Japanese Gardens. My dad had the best time feeding the huge fish. We did the Olympic Sculpture Garden and saw the Space Needle (we didn't go up). After all of that my dad and brother went back to the apartment, but my mom, cousin, cousins friend, and I went to some burger place for dinner (and unsurprisingly I forget the name again). It was quite good.

Seattle was nice! Good weather--overcast, but no rain. Next up Cruise!

I'm sure by now you've already booked her flight, but 12:30pm flight is no problem.

I had an 11:18am flight from Sea-Tac a few weeks ago. I was on the Solstice, but we docked right across from the RCL, also at 6am. I did self walk off at 7:30am. The line to walk-off started to move a few minutes early and I was in a cab by 7:34am! And at the airport by 8:05. I then checked my bag, went through security and took the train to my terminal. I was soooo early for my flight.

Unless there is some rare problem, you should have no worries.

No passport is required for Skagway 3 hour train. Did it three weeks ago and we didn't need a passport because we didn't get off the train. Our train even went all of the way to Fraser, BC because the Canada/USA border turn around spot was too crowded when we arrived.

Just a note for birth certificate and ID...they must have the same last name. My mom temporarily lost her passport before our cruise (she found it so it ended up not mattering) and celebrity said she must also bring her marriage certificate to prove her name change. So just FYI--in case that might affect you.

 

Thanks for the photos! I've gathered that your cruise was the only one in May to actually enter. I'm hoping we didn't miss much, but sadly I'm sure we did!

What is the difference? I know that Tracy and Endicott Arms' start from the same spot, but go off in different directions. So at Endicott we just saw the other side of the mountains on one side as we would have from Tracy Arms. Both have a glacier at the end. But people keep saying that we missed out by going into Endicott rather than Tracy Arms. I thought Endicott was a gorgeous and I'm happy we went that direction because we were able to get quite close to the glacier.

Now it makes sense, I thought you said y'all didn't enter Tracy Arm at all... Did we enter it on 5/27 sailing? I may have been asleep [emoji50]

No we did Endicott arms and Dawes glacier on the 27th sailing.

I was on the May 27th-June 3rd cruise, and we had a wonderful time. We did not encounter any envelopes, so it seems odd that you did.

We also quite enjoyed the buffet and MDR food. The only night in the MDR that we were not a fan of was the Top Chef menu, but luckily they always have three choices that are they same each night so we order off that side instead of the the Top Chef choices.

As for the 18% on certain things, that is expect because your general gratuity for the room attendants and MDR waiters. Both our room attendants and MDR waiters deserved the general gratuity that is put onto the bill (although we used one of our promotion items for free gratuities), they were great!

As far as excursions, we bought them from celebrity and were quite happy with them. Ziplining in Ketchikan was great! Bus driver there and zip lining guides were fantastic. Train in Skagway was nice. The commentator wasn't amazing, but we enjoyed the ride and views, and saw a bear! So that made the entire thing worth it. In Juneau we were going to take the blue bus to Mendenhall, but last minute decided to buy through celebrity (used part of our OBC) only because we were tendering and wanted to get off the ship quickly. The bus driver wasn't great--driving was fine, commentary not so much. But we enjoyed Mendenhall and hiking to the waterfall.

We had a great time! Absolutely loved Alaska!

Oh no! So what are you suppose to do with your luggage in Seattle after the cruise? Many flights to the east coast are red-eyes, so we'll have all day in Seattle. Can't very well sight see around the city with all that luggage.

Thanks for emailing and for all the responses.

Even though I still think $30 is ridiculous, at least it includes the entrance fee. Guess we will go that way to the glacier.

It's been $20, What you aren't considering is the added - new- Mendenhall access fee. Yes a cab would be cheaper, $35 range plus the admission fee of $5 http://www.fs.usda.gov/detail/tongass/news-events/?cid=STELPRD3839697

 

You will need phone number to call for a cab pick up at least a 1/2 hour prior to needing it.

Does the $30 round trip bus blue include the admission fee?

So these blue buses that everyone talks about to go to Mendenhall Glacier are now $30 round trip per person this year!! That's outrageous! It was only $15ish round trip just two years ago!

There will be 4 of us, would a cab be economically better? How much should I expect to spend on the cab?

Is there a public city bus? Or another way to get there?

Who did you book your cruise thru? If Celebrity you can call them. If through a TA dining can only be changed by you calling the TA.

AAA. So kind of like a travel agent, I guess. Thanks! I'll call them

I apologize if there is already an answer to this question somewhere on this board, I couldn't find it.

We are currently set for 8:30 traditional dining. I would like to change to Select. Do I have to call? I tried changing online, but I can't find where to do it. I was only able to view my dinner time, but wasn't able to change it.
