Creator's Key Takeaways

I am one of the administrators in the Alaska cruises with Princess uh Facebook group and we have been getting tons and tons of questions regarding luggage for the Land Tour

Princess is very strict with especially the luggage that you use as your quote unquote carryon

I am here to show you what I took on our Land tour now that has been back in 2012 we have not been on a Land Tour since then

I would not hesitate even with a laptop in it because I can always slide it underneath the seat or snug it up against the seat

Creator's Tips & Advice

Use a bag no more than 17x14x4 inches for carry-on on trains and motor coaches
Pack essentials only, including medications, and use packing cubes for organization
Check the Princess Alaska Cruise Tour supplemental PDF for detailed luggage and travel information
Consider a 29-inch spinner suitcase for checked luggage, but know you won't access it during transit
