ALASKA CRUISE: What I Wish I Packed & Shouldn't Have Packed || Alaska Cruise Packing List

Key Moments
Editorial Summary
The creator shares her personal packing experiences and recommendations following a seven-day Alaska cruise on Royal Caribbean's Radiance of the Seas. Having completed twenty-eight cruises, she provides advice based on her realization that she was underprepared for the specific climate of Alaska in May. She emphasizes that temperatures in the 50s in Alaska feel significantly colder than in other regions, leading her to suggest heavy layering and the inclusion of a puffer jacket. The creator highlights several essential items she was glad to have, including beanies, a belt bag for excursions, sunglasses to combat glacier light refraction, and a portable charger. Conversely, she regrets not packing warmer clothing for formal dinners on the ship and suggests bringing fleece-lined leggings or extra layers to prevent leg discomfort. Regarding footwear, she advises travelers to limit themselves to three pairs of shoes to save space for souvenirs. She concludes by noting that while the trip was beautiful and adventurous, the weather requires much more preparation than a typical warm-weather cruise.
