Creator's Key Takeaways

I would say that the discovery princess is a wonderful ship to take to Alaska

the crew was absolutely fantastic didn't see a cranky crew member in the lot

I would absolutely repeat the cruise that we just did absolutely love taking the discovery princess to Alaska

the volume in the Piaza was really loud you could not carry on a conversation

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Make dining reservations in advance, especially when the ship is full
βœ“Try to eat during off-peak times to avoid crowds at the buffet and main dining room
βœ“Use the International Cafe for 24/7 dining options when other venues are crowded
βœ“Ask for Sunny in the Juno dining room for excellent dinner service

πŸ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Ship crowds during peak dining times β€” Plan meals early or late, and use alternative dining venues like the International Cafe
Loud atmosphere in the Piaza β€” Be aware that the Piaza can be very noisy, which may affect comfort
