Dock or Tender in Alaska from Star Princess

[GuardCruisers]

I have been looking for info on different pages to see what the shore access is in ports.  We are sailing with a scooter.

 

Can anyone answer how the Star normally makes port at Ketchikan, Skagway, Juneau, and Victoria?

Normally docked although if there are several ships in port it may be a tender. We were on the Sun Princess doing a "circle the Pacific" cruise when we had to tender in Juneau.

Have you checked the itinerary for the date you are sailing on the Princess web site? It normally mentions which ports are tender ports. The Star's June 12, 2020 sailing is an example. You can also call Princess to verify, but will probably receive the same information that is posted in the on line itinerary.

This has also been our experience in these specific ports. There are websites that list the actual location of each ship in port that day will take, though these can change. We were initially listed as Tendering in Juneau, but ended up docking.

Check your Alaska itinerary.  It will show whether docked or tendered.
