bellebaby Posted May 2, 2013 #26 Share Posted May 2, 2013 We like to do the first cruise of the year: -Less kids -Less bugs -More snow (Living in South Texas we don't get snow, so we like to see it.) Agreed.... We leave next week... B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PathfinderEss Posted May 2, 2013 #27 Share Posted May 2, 2013 We'll be going on our 8th cruise to Alaska and have traveled every month except for September. I think June is the best month. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localady Posted May 3, 2013 #28 Share Posted May 3, 2013 Thanks for the suggestions, I booked the trip this morning for June 2 on the Oosterdam. Hopefully this will be the first of many Alaska adventures. Guess I need to look at booking the 14 day Alaska cruise for 2014 while on board.... I wonder what my wife will say when I gently tell her at dinner that we are going on a cruise in 4 weeks for our 1 year Anniversary. I already booked LeCirque and a couple of other nights in the Pinnacle, now I need to book some excursions. Thanks all for your help, this is why I love CC Congratulations! It sounds like a wonderful way to spend your first anniversary!! I am sure your wife will be thrilled and may tell you she needs to go shopping..... ;):D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themerle Posted May 3, 2013 #29 Share Posted May 3, 2013 I been twice in May and twice in July. I think I enjoyed the times that I went in May better than the July trips. When I think of Alaska, I think of snow and we did get to see snow on both trips in May. The next time I go I think I would like to go late in the season just to see an even greater difference.

St. Louis Sal Posted May 4, 2013 #30 Share Posted May 4, 2013 As you can tell from all the responses, the weather will be whatever Mother Nature chooses. I've done June, July, August and Sept and had just about every kind of weather possible from 76 and sunny (in Ketchikan-go figure) to sleet and snow while glacier viewing and one of the biggest wind storms leaving Ketchikan heading back to Seattle. Just wear layers and have a wonderful time. And do book the 14 day trip for next year; I've done it twice and it's fantastic.
