What about luggage on the Alaska with 3 day land cruise

[RetiredRich]

We have been looking into the Alaska from Seattle with 3 days inland that ends in Fairbanks.  Can we just carry a 3 day supply of luggage and ship the big ones home.  It would be a hassle lugging around the 10 day supply of luggage.  Sure would like to book that cruise.  And appreciate comments from those that have.

Check luggageforward.com they will ship your bags to your door. 

 

We live in Georgetown Tx and each 50 pound bag shipped to FLL or San Diego from our doorstep is $144 each, one way. You can also book it going home.

Unless it has changed, when we did a land tour after the cruise they put our luggage under the bus and left it there and we used a small bag.  Someone with more recent experience should respond.

We did the 3 day extension in 2019 and HAL handled the luggage for the 3 days, we took train to Anchorage, then to Denali and then bus to Fairbanks. We only touched the bags when they delivered them to our hotel rooms. It was no big deal.

HAL is very good about moving luggage around Alaska.  They will give you tags to separate luggage that you need for land and that you don't.  Everything will end up with you on the last day. At least it did for us last year.  Book the cruise, you will love it!
