thanks just got on and saw this thread first.

PantherFan, please let me know what route you chose, so I'm not on that one!!

 

:D:D:D

Really disappointing to see that the Explorer still isn't stopping in Ketchikan....but I guess the itinerary still appeals to some.

LOL I have no problem with the Saints :D:D:D

[Saintsfan007]

Nice, and I don't have any problem with the Panthers either! Just a little divisional rivalry. :)

 

DW and I are waiting for the sailings to open up. We've never been to Alaska, and are planning something for our anniversary next year.

We have done over 40 cruises 2 of them being Alaska. They are by far my favorites. It took me 8 years to convince my wife to the first time.

 

Seattle (Explorer) is the easiest for travel purposes since the Radiance routes are not round trips.

Thanks for the update...we are looking into a land/cruise trip for summer 2017 on the Explorer but need pricing to see if we can do it.

[Lvscruzn]

We are looking for that type of trip also. Will let you know if we find anything to.

I could not wait I went to celebrity and book a cruise

I love RCCL, but for Alaska, Glacier Bay is a MUST-SEE and unfortunately RCCL doesn't go there.

From what I've read, Holland and Princess have the best itineraries for Alaska.

yep, did Princess back in 2014 and loved it SO much that I'm repeating (with more land-based travel) in 2017

That's the route we are looking at. Have you done that particular one before? Any tips for an Alaska newbie would be greatly appreciated.

[PantherFan]

For the Seattle route we stay right downtown in Seattle so we can walk to the local sites. We go early and spend a couple days in Seattle. We have stayed right on the waterfront at the Edgewater Hotel. 5-6 blocks to Pikes and 7-8 to the Space Needle. Short taxi ride to the pier.

Am so excited!!! Hubby just booked us on Radiance of the Seas, 11 night land and sea, August 14, 2017 and he managed to get us an aft cabin!!! Let the countdown begin!!
