sherylc Posted May 29, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 29, 2014 Hi. I will be in Juneau on the Star Princess in June. We are tendering. I booked our own helicopter/dog sled tour with a 0915 pickup (0800 arrival time for the ship). The helicopter company believes we will be fine. I am curious for those who have had direct experience - is this realistic for us to be off the ship? (I am willing to stand in line for however long to get the earliest tender tickets available). Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hazelnut1106 Posted May 30, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 30, 2014 We were on the Star Princess in May and we did not tender at Juneau or any of the Alaska ports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shastatroy Posted May 30, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 30, 2014 Bummer, I've only been there while one or two ships are in port. The Star will be in port on June 6th with 2 other ships, June 18th with 4 other ships and June 29th with 5 other ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CruiseAdict218 Posted May 30, 2014 #5 Share Posted May 30, 2014 We docked in Juneau, but I want to say (don't quote me though) that all early excursions get priority tendering to shore, something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lake5298 Posted May 30, 2014 #6 Share Posted May 30, 2014 We docked in Juneau, but I want to say (don't quote me though) that all early excursions get priority tendering to shore, something like that. Only excursions booked through Princess get priority tendering. Independently booked excursions do not get any kind of priority. If you are Captain's Circle "Elite" level you get priority tendering too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
