Creator's Key Takeaways

I have been to Alaska 12 times. I have never seen the northern lights.

It's an immersive Alaska cruise experience, and I think it's the very best way to go to Alaska.

The food is phenomenal. The staff is phenomenal. Props to Uncruise and Dan Blanchard for such a great product.

She's magnificent. So well, and then one last ship we want to talk about because of Alaska, uh my very first trip up north uh in the '9s, uh was to see a ship called the Prince George.

YouTube Video Description↓

In this latest episode of "A LIttle Bit Of Ship Banter", ship historians Peter Knego and Dan Trachtenberg discuss Knego's latest cruise to Alaska on board UnCruises' vintage coastal steamer-inspired WILDERNESS LEGACY. Everything from the Northern Lights to calving glaciers and pods of orcas was featured. The two also discuss new and encouraging developments with the sleek, nuclear-powered SAVANNAH and her possible future as a preserved ship in her namesake city and Knego shares the story of his visit to the PRINCE GEORGE, the 1948-built Alaska liner and cruise ship that burned from stem to stern just weeks later. #cruiseship #classicships #oceanliner #nssavannah #uncruise #wildernesslegacy #princegeorge #sunkenship #fireatsea
