Just wanted to let everyone know that I have the cruise compasses scanned and posted, along with some other info sheets. Here are the links (which I have also added to my [URL="http://alaskacruise2013.blogspot.com/"]blog[/URL].)

I also have the shore excursions booklet, but I did not scan it, as it is very lengthy. One other set of sheets I did not scan on principle are the shopping guides. BUY LOCALLY!

I had some time this morning, so I added the shore excursion pamphlet:

Thanks for the scanned documents. I'm sure that took some time to do. I appreciate seeing all the details in advance of my NORTH bound cruise in ONE WEEK!

Starting June 28, Capt Göran Peterson is aboard.

He was present at the Captain's Corner talk on board the last day of our cruise, and Captain Sindre introduced him.

What ship will Captain Sindre go to?

oh man, I just realized I posted this in a really old thread and didn't mean to bump it. But this was my question..

Your formal nights were Day 2 and Day 5? We're on the RT Vancouver sailing on Sept 6th. I am trying to figure out if we will be the same. I would think so given Juneau is an earlier day than Ketchikan. And also, the Mystery Dinner is on the 11th in Giovanni's Table and I'm inclined to think they would not schedule that on a formal night, or would they?

He is on vacation. He explained that two masters alternate for each ship.

So you are on a B2B, Northbound first, then southbound?

[quote name='sr4mjc']Your formal nights were Day 2 and Day 5? I am trying to figure out if we will be the same.[/QUOTE]

Remember, the compasses I posted are from southbound. I don't know for sure what schedule they follow for the northbound. Since the ports are in a different order, it may well be different.

[URL="http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1879117"]HERE[/URL] is a link to a thread I created with Alaska reviews from this year.

[URL="http://boards.cruisecritic.com/showthread.php?t=1867761"]HERE[/URL] is a review from earlier in the season for northbound. You might want to look through that to see when the formal nights were.

Just make sure you are looking at the same itinerary before you make firm plans!

Hope that helps!

[sr4mjc]

We are neither Northbound or Southbound, but RT Vancouver! It's the last cruise of the season. I guess it's anyone's guess!

Although on the NB route the Mystery Dinner is on a casual night so if our Mystery Dinner is on Day 6 (the only date to book in the Pre-Cruise Planner), the formal night is likely on Day 5. And on your cruise the Mystery Dinner was also on a casual night, Day 4.

I can't imagine why they'd want that on a formal night.

Very neat to hear. Looking forward to meeting this engaging captain.
