Wowie Zowie!  Awesome itinerary. I believe this is on Ruby Princess. I wonder if I can convince my wife to go back to Alaska yet again.

[MJC]

Nice!! That is very tempting, and we like the Ruby too.

[SSAtlantic]

Trying to convince my DH this is better then a B2B on Sapphire or Coral but he is not going for it.  Will keep trying!

[TM]

Looks like an awesome cruise.  But on the Ruby?  That ship seems to be jinxed.

[travellingnana]

We’re doing this cruise. It’ll be our 6th one to Alaska. I’m calling this our “farewell tour.”😁

[Outerdog]

Save you all some clicks...

I can't wait to meet you.

[DougH]

It looks great but the price is crazy high. I also looked at the 17 day from Seattle and price is high also

You do know it's bad luck to be superstitious, don't you?

There is a 16 day RT Los Angeles for 1/2 the price. We just were amazed by this itinerary.

Yeah...but half your cruise is just getting to/from Alaska area.

That is way we decided to go with this one. 8 sea days out of 16 seemed a little much. 

 

[memoak]

We have booked the 17 day from Seattle since we are a 3-4 hour train ride away. The best thing is getting to Glacier Bay, Hubbard and College Fiord all in one trip. And who ever gets to go to Wrangell

Yep.  While we do like sea days...with an Alaskan itinerary the focus should be Alaska...not sea days!

I did not see this option or I would have booked this. Please don't tell my husband.

We did get to go to Wrangell years ago on a RCCL Alaska cruise. There was a very bad storm and instead of going to our scheduled port(don’t remember which one it was) he went into Wrangell. There is a very good dock and it was a lovely small Alaska town. Not commercial like the normal ports. People were very friendly and it was interesting to hear about living there. There was a Native Alaskan Historic Site within walking distance of the pier. The place to buy souvenirs was the local ships chandlery.

So glad I saw this thread.  Just booked!  We just got back from a 10 day Alaska on the Ruby. It will be our 5th trip to Alaska - 3rd time RT out of SF, so easy.

Hope you won't mind if as we get closer, I have a million questions. We are so excited. It has been over 52 years since I have been to San Francisco and I am so excited to see all of these new ports.

And there’s nothing like sailing under the Golden Gate Bridge!

Sure!  Looks like there is already a roll call started too.

[cr8tiv1]

Princess has 3 new long cruises to Alaska for 2025.  
 

LA round trip 

San Francisco round trip

Seattle round trip

 

I wonder if this is a test market?  Or are they trying to win back their seasoned cruisers that they have alienated.

 

Very popular

Very expensive
