There are a few things that come to mind for this post. You are VERY early to expect rates for August 2018? to be a good rate now. What we have done numerous times is find a place that you are interested in....make a reservation with just using your cc number but they don't charge you until your visit (be sure to cancel your reservation if you don't use them).

 

We have used different ways to get a good deal and this time for our May 2018 visit we booked our first Airbnb.com and boy are we happy. We have weekend rates, very close to Pier 91 area and walkable or Uber to Pikes Market area for $200 for the weekend!!! Super cute place and so excited.

 

We also still have a reservation that we made (need to cancel) near the airport at Cedarbrook Lodge for same weekend for $386 which was also a good rate for that time BUT too far away from Downtown for our liking.

 

I have plenty of good information and a $40 off first Airbnb visit if you want to email me at home so I can provide that to you as well as a great private towncar service we like etc. This will be our fourth time to Alaska as it is such a great trip. Email me if you want some discount codes and a lead to the cute place we have reserved for May/June 2018. Compson351@cox.net

 

Happy travels whatever you decide to do ! Charlene

We just booked our first Airbnb for May 2018 as well! I can't wait, and I was so excited to find a place downtown and reasonably priced!

Any idea why there aren't any balcony rooms available?

Got a longgggggg time to wait,:eek: don't cruise Alaska til Sept, sure am getting ansy to read up on what ya'll have ta say!!!!!:)

same here!

Me and DH are booked for the Sept 4th sailing with RCI on the Jewel! Can't wait!

We also did the stay and cruise, but we stayed at the Holiday Inn New Orleans West Bank Tower in Gretna (Nice hotel by the way). We stayed there because it was cheap and it offered free parking during the cruise. We paid $20 for a taxi to the port, but at the time it was cheaper than hotels right next to the port. If you want some other options Google Park and cruise in New Orleans, there are many options to choose from you will just have to research prices and see what is best for you :). Hope you find a good deal! and have fun on the cruise.
