Creator's Key Takeaways

I'm going to Alaska today on a last-minute cruise that I got the most incredible deal I paid 298 for the cruise fare plus taxes and fees came to 592

I used some Alaska Airlines miles for my flight so I ended up paying six dollars actually five dollars and 60 cents for a first-class ticket

I booked a scenic transfer that is gonna drop me on for the ship around 1:30 today I just landed a 9:30 so four hours from now I'll be boarding

I have heard that it could take up to three hours for them to get your luggage to your room so you don't want to be without something for that length of time

Creator's Tips & Advice

Book transfers early as Princess stops accepting reservations 10 days before sailing
Bring a jacket for cold weather at national park stops

YouTube Video Description

Traveling from Seattle to Whittier, Alaska for a Princess cruise that I booked last-minute at a crazy low price! Princess stops accepting reservations for their pre-cruise transfers 10 days before sailing so I was unable to use their service, instead I took an ACT transfer bus which included a stop at a national park on our way to the port. Alaska cruises are always a completely different experience to Caribbean trips, from embarkation and demographics to scenery. I'm excited to bring you along for this adventure!
