mamma0233 Posted May 22, 2019 #3 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Virtually every shop on every stop of your cruise will offer a variety of smoked salmon to ship home...no worries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sppunk Posted May 22, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 22, 2019 It’s often cheaper to just order online and not while in Juneau or Ketchikan. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted May 22, 2019 #5 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Many years ago we were introduced to "Salmon, Etc" in Ketchikan. We still order from them --JMO -- best smoked salmon around. I get the packets not the cans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knittinggirl Posted May 22, 2019 #6 Share Posted May 22, 2019 We've used the riverboat discovery salmon from Fairbanks. We took an excursion eleven years ago, had some shipped to us, and have been using them ever since. If you buy it onboard and fly home, there may be TSA issues. At the time, they asked all of us if we had cans of salmon in our carry-ons. Don't understand their problem, because, that salmon isn't a liquid.

Rare Hlitner Posted May 22, 2019 #7 Share Posted May 22, 2019 It is always wise to price out (before the cruise) what it would cost to simply order the same (or similar) product online. Just Google something like "smoked salmon from Alaska." Once you are armed with the online prices you can compare to what it costs to buy and ship from Alaska and which is the best value. And if you are a member of Costco you might want to check-out the Smoked Wild Sockeye Salmon which is all sourced from Alaska. I have had the Costco stuff and it compares well (and sometimes beats) what we have had in Alaska. Hank 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I do the run between Seward and Juneau you get into Juneau before seven and one can watch the fish coming off the boats and up the cover right into the Taku plant. You know the fish is fresh and they catch lots of Salmon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I laugh every time I read a comment waxing poetic about "oooooh fresh King Crab at Tracy's"..... Tracy's King Crab is frozen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
