Anybody book 2007 cruise yet ? I wanting to buy my brother a cruise up there for his wedding present ? My dilema is Princess says they have 21 new tours ? But when I call no one will answer the phone so I can see what one they have and there web site under Shore excursions has only the 2006 listed, I heard rumor that there is an Airboat tour at the Mckinley lodge for 2007. Does anyone who booked know if this is true ? I wanting to book them a trip to Denali and then to Princess Mckinley to do a fishing, atv and hopefuly Airboat ride as he is a lover of these things
The 2007 Alaska cruises have been open for booking since around May 2006. I would talk with a cruise oriented Travel Agency that can help you sort out all the different tours. Alaska is a short season and many of the sailings are already sold out. Balcony's can be difficult to get when booking late.
I am leaving on June 16, 2007 on the Norwegian Star for Alaska - Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway, Sawyer glacier, etc. How should I dress at that time and anyone else out there going at the same time?
The real key for dressing in Alaska is layers. Layers offer the most in flexibility and warmth when needed. The weather can be cool and rainy, for at least some of each day. When you're on the ship, cruising past glaciers, you're going to want to be outside, on the deck, watching the scenery go by. Those outside deck areas can be very cold when cruising past or anchored near a glacier, but being outside is something you don't want to miss.
"If you can't see the mountain tops in Juneau, it's raining. If you CAN see them, it's about to rain."
