techmom Posted May 15, 2009 #26 Share Posted May 15, 2009 This is making me want to book one right now! We have been thinking of Alaska but I don't know how to handle not being in the sun or hot tempatures all the time. How much is the pool area used? When is the best time weather wise to book an Alaskan cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarthGrady Posted May 16, 2009 Author #29 Share Posted May 16, 2009 This is making me want to book one right now! We have been thinking of Alaska but I don't know how to handle not being in the sun or hot tempatures all the time. How much is the pool area used? When is the best time weather wise to book an Alaskan cruise? The pools werent heavily used. The two middle pools are heated, although the dome pool felt warmer. The hot tubs were frequently occupied, but not crowded. I used the spa hot tub most of the time, and I did use the dome pool twice. It was hotter than the hot tubs!

patattack Posted May 16, 2009 #49 Share Posted May 16, 2009 I also would like to know when is the best time to cruise to Alaska. I will definitely be booking a balcony cabin. I have always had inside or outside, but never balcony. I am planning to book one for 20l0. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
