Hoyaheel Posted April 2, 2019 #26 Share Posted April 2, 2019 As noted earlier, not all ships get a Glacier Bay pass (and Coral followed up by surmising it's still going to be just 2 a day) just because the company was awarded the concession. It's possible Celebrity won't have any passes in 2020 (or just a couple) so rescheduling all itineraries isn't an issue..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering of Celebrity might drop ISP next year for Glacier Bay. Actually, I don't remember the exact route into GB and I've been there 3 times on 3 different ships (2 Princess, 1 HAL). I imagine it would depend on whether the ship is doing NB, SB or RT from the lower 48. I don't recall being awake for long before we entered the bay--I was up and out there early on the Star for sure. Definitely remember leaving, though, and going past the huge colony of noisy sea lions not far outside there <g>. But unless the itinerary includes Icy Point (none of ours did), I don't think it would go by ISP which appears about 15 s of Gustavus, which is right inside the entrance to GB and where the NPS ranger boards.

As an example Carnival Cruise line only goes to Glacier Bay 2x a year on average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
