brunolvr Posted January 27, 2008 Author #352 Share Posted January 27, 2008 We did the Canada/New England cruise and it was a great cruise but I found myself comparing the scenery to Alaska, and C/NE came up short. :( We are going back to Alaska this year.:D Hi, Judy! A B2B to Alaska sounds like a dream come true to me! Wish we could do something like that. I'll be looking forward to seeing your pictures! What made you decide on the Veendam over Princess? -Sandy- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judynorth Posted January 27, 2008 #354 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hi, Judy! A B2B to Alaska sounds like a dream come true to me! Wish we could do something like that. I'll be looking forward to seeing your pictures! What made you decide on the Veendam over Princess? -Sandy- We wanted to do a different itinerary this time since we had been to the same ports twice. This time we are going to Sitka, Haines, and Seward as well as the others that we have visited before. We are also going to Hubbard Glacier this time. Also, the B2B was cheaper than a B2B on Princess since HAL gives you a price break for the 14 day cruise. Now I see that the Princess 14 day on the Tahitian Princess is about the same price as the 14 day on the Veendam. When we booked back in September is was considerably more expensive than the Veendam. We have never cruised HAL before so it will be a new experience. Needless to say, we are excited about going to Alaska again.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brunolvr Posted February 5, 2008 Author #360 Share Posted February 5, 2008 It looks like there will be a lot of Cruise Critics invading Alaska this Spring and Summer (and even early Fall)! Hope they'll be ready for us! I'm sure we'll all be ready for our Cruises!:) Hopefully everyone will take lots of pictures and write reviews and post them online for all of us to see, read & enjoy!

atudorquene Posted February 9, 2008 #367 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Well, first cruise if you don't count a miserable time on a ferry from Crete to Santorini in 1987, LOL! We are looking forward to a cruise to Alaska to celebrate my Hub's Birthday, he was born in Sitka, and that is supposed to be a stop, and it is also for our 23rd Wedding Anniversary, so we decided to splurge.

stired Posted February 10, 2008 #374 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Well, 4 of us went for the 1st time to Alaska in 2007 on the Coral Princess, with an 8-day independent land tour. Had the time of our lives, thanks to advice on these boards. I figured I probably wouldn't go back for another year or two, but a friend of mine wanted to go on a small ship and I just couldn't resist going back! So we are booked on a short 5-day, 4-night trip in July with Cruise West in Prince William Sound. We also added on a few days before and after our cruise to do a glacier landing in Seward and bear watching at Brooks Falls. Can't wait to go back!!!
