5 ships in port at Juneau

[baxley]

I noticed that there will be 5 ships in port while we are at Juneau. Has anyone else had this experience? Did this affect your being able to take shuttle busses to Mendenhall ? Or were there too many people on the trails to the falls? Just wondered....

I've been in Juneau with 7 ships. Yes, there can be lines for shuttle buses, no way to predict what you are going to encounter.

We had 4 while in Juneau last week. No problems with the shuttle but the streets were really crowded.

We had several ships in dock and it was my impression that many passengers had lined up excursions early, and they were the people in a rush to get off the ships, and wait for excursion transportation. Others got off to peruse the town. The early 9a.m. shuttle had about a dozen people on it. Vendors are selling the one-way or round trip tickets well before that.

don't worry as all the ships came in a differnt times. the streeat were crowed but later in afternoon a few ships left. It was not crowed on the bus because there are so many different tour up there, don't worry.

There were 5 ships in port the day that I was there. I agree - the ships arrive at different times, so crowding isn't a problem. The main issue with having 5 ships is that one will have to tender. We were the last to arrive, but it was the Sea Princess that had to tender - maybe because it's a smaller ship?
