Creator's Key Takeaways

I think I've gotten spoiled. So, this is the thing. A couple of my last cruises were what you would consider preview or media sailings.

This sailing is at 100% capacity. And when I tell you, I almost feel there's more kids on this ship than I've seen on Caribbean cruises.

I will tell you so far the food on Ovation was better than Quantum.

The service has been good. Really no no issues at all.

Creator's Tips & Advice

โœ“Get the Northstar on embarkation day for free.
โœ“Consider a balcony for Alaska, but it's not required.
โœ“Pack for cold and windy weather, even in summer.

๐Ÿ†•New to Cruising? This Creator Addresses:

Time change and jet lag โ€” It takes a minute to adjust; use an eye mask for sleep due to long daylight hours.
Cold weather in Alaska โ€” Pack layers, hoodies, sweatpants, and coats; it can be windy and cold even in summer.
Cost of excursions โ€” Balance your budget; some experiences like whale watching are worth it, but you can also explore ports on your own.
