Pro Tips From Creators

The most-shared advice for Road Warrior Rick.

  1. Book at least one balcony room for the group to enjoy Glacier Bay in peace

  2. Use the ship's app to skip long lines for specialty dining reservations

  3. Get out on deck for Glacier Bay instead of staying inside the Observation Lounge

  4. Factor in at least one full hour to get off the ship and through bus lines in Juneau

  5. Pack layers and water-resistant shoes for Alaska's unique challenges

  6. Book dinner reservations early as they can be a challenge to secure.

  7. Use the Indulge Food Hall for efficient meals and better coffee.

  8. Consider a balcony cabin for transatlantic sailings due to more time spent in the cabin.
