Ilovebreakfast Posted March 27 #1 Share Posted March 27 We’ll be on the Serenity Alaska cruise 7/16-7/23 and I’m looking to book specialty restaurants. Do they still have 2 shows per night and if so, what times. Do they still have a magic show? Can you book the nightclub dinner in advance online? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted March 27 #2 Share Posted March 27 Magic shows, yes. You cannot booked the supper club in advance. As to one or two shows it will depend on the overall occupancy of the voyage. Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ilovebreakfast Posted March 28 Author #4 Share Posted March 28 So if there’s just 1 show, what time would that be and if 2 shows, what times? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruise-y Posted March 28 #5 Share Posted March 28 This is an oft-asked question and unfortunately there is no set answer. On a recent full cruise, we found that there was usually one show at 9:30. But this can be different on other sailings. Dining at 7:30 seemed to work for us, if that helps. You cannot book the nightclub until onboard when the date is announced. The magic show is usually offered at multiple times - in the afternoon, early evening or late evening - and on multiple days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Keith1010 Posted March 28 #6 Share Posted March 28 Nancy is correct. There will not be a Supper Club on your sailing as there will not be a formal night since this is a 7 night cruise. The number of shows and the times vary not only by evening but by sailing based on occupancy and also can vary based on sailing times. There is no way to predict what the times will be on your sailing. Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Librarian is the contact point for magic show tickets. We usually go to the Library the 1st day to get ours. It's a wonderful show if you enjoy magic!

Ilovebreakfast Posted March 30 Author #8 Share Posted March 30 Happy to hear about the magic shows. We’ve always enjoyed them. This will be our first Crystal cruise of less than 2 weeks. Also, the first in a suite. We received the aquamarine suite in the classic design. We will be arriving into Anchorage 2 days prior and staying at the Marriott downtown. If anyone has any recommendations for a full day in Anchorage, or any other recommendations for packing for a 7 day Alaska cruise, that I wouldn’t find by a simple google search, I’d appreciate it. Thank you and safe travels to all my fellow Crystal cruisers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time we were on Crystal in Alaska, the temperatures hit into the low 80s in two of the stops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time we were on Crystal in Alaska, the temperatures hit into the low 80s in two of the stops. And the last time we were in Alaska, during the first two weeks in July, the temps barely hit 50-55 deg during the day, with a wind chill in the 30’s when the ship was moving. Just shows the unpredictable temp swings possible in Alaska. Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Tillie Posted March 30 #11 Share Posted March 30 As someone who has their 7th and 8th Alaska cruises booked for this year, so a semi-expert, weather for the Alaska cruise season is, you pay your money, you take your chances. I've seen it all, so accept whatever and enjoy. Patty 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctjon Posted March 30 #12 Share Posted March 30 Anchorage is a "real" city and you want to take day trip from there to other local areas and tours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Keith1010 Posted March 31 #15 Share Posted March 31 A recommendation for llovebreakfast. Like Patty I have seen it all. Been there the same time or similar times and it has ranged from sunny to warm, cold to colder rainy, cloudy, windy, etc. This is what makes Alaska what it is. My advice is to finalize your packing list a week before your cruise by looking at weather reports for the places you will visit. Like all weather forecasts they are not perfect but it will help for sure. And it is wise to bring clothing that you can layer. Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
