tcudarling93 Posted January 28, 2023 #1 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Looking to book an Alaskan cruise - Seattle round trip. We are trying to decide between Royal Princess and Holland America Eurodam. Both visit Glacier Bay. Thoughts on which one would be better? A group in their 50’s - no kids.

Rare Bostonjetset Posted January 28, 2023 #2 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Both Princess and HAL are considered leaders in Alaska cruising so you can’t really go wrong with either. Royal Princess is considerably larger than Eurodam and as such I would give the edge to Eurodam. Smaller ships are a plus in Alaska. Also, HAL ships have a full promenade deck so more sheltered outdoor space. Royal Princess lacks this. Demographics onboard should be similar. Food is similar between the two lines. Princess has a slight edge in evening entertainment but that’s not usually a priority on an Alaska cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaktreerb Posted January 29, 2023 #3 Share Posted January 29, 2023 Eurodam is best for Alaska. Great viewing areas and probably fewer kids. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTJ Posted January 30, 2023 #4 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Holland America Line and Princess Cruises are both owned by the same company (i.e., Carnival Corporation & plc). Some differences between the two brands, but much is the same, and neither line will say that they are "better" than the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
