Gregrat Posted February 11 #1 Share Posted February 11 We thought we would throw this out there to you more well-seasoned Crystal folks. A reliable source at Crystal tells me that Serenity will be back in Alaska in the summer of 2006. Here are the two options we have come up with for an Alaska cruise. 1. Stay in a standard room with veranda and do a Back 2 Back for 14 days. 2. Upgrade to an Aquamarine Suite for the 7 nights and not do the Back 2 Back. We would love to get your feedback on this.

doglover214 Posted February 11 #2 Share Posted February 11 Do the back to back. The veranda room is fine, and you’ll want to stay on the ship as long as possible! 10 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skybluewaters Posted February 11 #3 Share Posted February 11 In my opinion, the marginal utility of upgrading from a standard room with veranda to an aquamarine suite is minimal compared to the ability to double the number of days you get to spend on the ship. I don't like to use the term "no-brainer," but it's the best description for this choice. Enjoy Alaska! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare goldengatecruisers Posted February 11 #4 Share Posted February 11 Staying in the smaller room for longer days is my answer as well. I promise you will not want to get off the ship. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEAV Posted February 11 #5 Share Posted February 11 Another vote for 14 days. A no-brainer for me. Now the real challenge is going to be securing a stateroom on a 2006 voyage! 5 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregrat Posted February 11 Author #6 Share Posted February 11 The SHIP is our destination as well. The itinerary is just icing on the cake for us. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whipsnade Posted February 12 #7 Share Posted February 12 Right now they are offering suite upgrades. Contact your TA. You might be able to get Aquamarine for price of smaller cabin. If that doesn’t work out get smaller and stay longer. Try for one closest to midship elevators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That current suite upgrade offer is only on 2024 cruises - the OP is looking at 2026 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted February 12 #9 Share Posted February 12 I agree with all that said do the 14 days in the verandah room for 14 days rather than a suite for less days. Keith 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know Beav, I read over that original post 3 times before I posted it and didn’t catch that mistake! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
