Leaving for our third Alaskan cruise in 19 days. This is what I pack: 1 dress slacks and top for formal, 2 nice (think khakis) for evening with 3 tops, 4 day pants like jeans or thicker slacks with 5 long sleeve tops- one will be a turtle neck that can go under one of the tops, 2 pair comfortable shoes in case one gets wet and one pair slip-ons for every night, 4 pair socks, night gown, a set of cuddle duds, a good fleece, a Lands End jacket, a rain coat, gloves, hat, and scarf. I pack underwear for every day because it takes up little room. Optional for me is a swim suit and a robe.
I hope this helps, and it is strictly what I pack- pack what is important to you. I didn't mention camera , binoculars, etc. because some people want them, some don't. For Alaska you need to be comfortable and able to rewear a lot of your layers.
Thanks, This is pretty similar to what I packed many years ago and what I plan on bringing this time. Now my DH-he needs lots of warm stuff so his is the LARGE suitcase. We are from FL so he is always cold. (Think flannel shirts for him.) I can't believe that we will be leaving a week from next Saturday! Time sure has flown. Let's be sure to look for the Cruise Critic "Meet & Greet" in the Patter.!:cool:

Wonderful review. We are leaving on the Ruby this coming Saturday, May 19th. It will be my husbands first Alaska cruise and my second. It looks like you took almost the same excursions that I have booked. Thank you for all the fantastic information, including weather updates.
