Creator's Key Takeaways

these ships are truly a game Cher as they are very very contemporary and still have all the touches of the other silver sea ships you've grown to love

I've done both and the silver Nova and silver Ray feel a lot more spacious and a lot more open

never book directly with the cruise line when you book through a top travel partner such as myself we get preferred rates and usually an extra amenity

the inclusivity of the shore excursions especially in Alaska where the shore excursions can be quite expensive

Creator's Tips & Advice

Never book directly with the cruise line; book through a top travel partner for preferred rates and extra amenities.
Add your travel agent to an existing booking to potentially renegotiate rates and add discounts or onboard credit.
Order room service breakfast the night before an early excursion day to use as a wakeup call.
