My 1st time to Alaska so far, and I say so far because I WILL be back, was the 8-day Vancouver to Seattle on Ovation May 11th thru May 19th, 2023. It was everything I dreamed of and more! Out of Ten cruises that was my favorite! Three weeks later while at work, I would daydream about the entire experience. We also had amazing weather with the exception of Sitka, which had some rain. From the two days spent prior in Vancouver, to the day we spent in Seattle, just gorgeous weather! We got so lucky and I'm forever grateful! The one terrible part of the cruise was embarkation at Canada Place. It was an absolute chaotic mess!! I understand that has happened in the past and still goes on there today. I saw this year's May 9th sailing had to deal with the same nonsense. I don't understand why that port can't get it together. Perhaps it has to do with customs?
We did not get to see the glacier due to ice, but after having been on a glacier at Skagway dog sledding, I was ok with us not passing by. I really feel for the people on the sailing for May 9th with the itinerary changes, but hopefully it works out well and I'm sure they will still have a blast.
You were so right about May 9th sailing being the best …. We had booked it & they changed it at the last minute 😩😩
Well bummer! I'm sorry to hear that... What did they change it to? Are you still going?
Canceled Sitka & shortened time in Ketchikan…. Replaced Sitka with Victoria. It was just a few weeks ago they announced… too late to make any changes but probably wouldn’t have if we could … NCL had an itinerary we liked (were originally booked on) but it was almost $2000 more so were giving RC a shot.
Gotcha, yeah, those aren't really upgrades to the itinerary. But I'm sure it will still be a nice cruise... Alaska is so amazing!
Im on the May 9th cruise as well. Most complicated planning ive had to do lol. Cant wait.
Have a blast! Keep me posted on how it goes!
Same!
I’m booked for the cruise leaving May 9 from Vancouver. I can’t wait!!
Awesome! Let me know how it goes!
Same!
Me too
Have a great time!
I’m on the May 9 sailing. I got a recent email that Sitka is being skipped and replaced by Victoria.
ahh shoot. Well, It will still be a good trip - just gotta make the most of it, right? Let me know how it went when you get back!
It will still be a great cruise!
For us that have done Alaska 6+ times, no glacier and only 3 port stops is just fine. The 8-day is probably sold out because there is alot of Ausie that are doing b2b2b. I am on the Hawaii- Vancouver leg.
Makes perfect sense!
Thanks. We are on July 19th. I guess we will cancel all 18 people since this is the worst one.
This is always the challenge, right? What's the right cruise for you? The one that's the right price, right time and with the right people. I'm guessing y'all are going to have an amazing time!!! I hope you'll let me know how it was when you get back! I love hearing from everyone!
The record scratch? LOL funny.
I thought so. :-D
