Thank you so much for your time and effort. It was a joy to sail along with you through your pictures and the information you passed along to us future passengers on that beautiful ship.

[erdoran]

thanks so much for all the love and time you put into this - very helpful to DH and me in decisionmaking and in eagerly anticipating our first Alaska cruise!

Disembarkation.

 

They set the gangway at 6:00. The ship was cleared was cleared for self walk-off and complimentary Port Valet at 6:40. The Port Valet, which allows you to check overweight bags at no extra charge, was VERY popular.

 

Color tag bags which were suppose to be available starting at 8:00 am, we’re not available until 8:40.

 

There was a short line for Customs and they were only doing a passport check.

 

Shuttles to the airport cost $20 per person and leave frequently as soon as they fill a bus.

BirdTravels,

I have been lurking here all week. Really appreciate the huge effort you put into this trip report. Amazing photos, plus all the little details you covered. Thanks!

Walking Around the Bliss - The Social

 

On the Bliss, The Social replaces Headliners and the Skyline Bar on the Escape and Bliss on other megaships as the night time club. It has a main room for the comedy shows and small side lounges for a ultralounge feel

Are the menu's in the three main dining rooms the same as each other every night?

Did you book your shuttle to the airport prior to sailing?

Where can I sign up for bus shuttles?

Also thanks to people like you, we will have a better cruise experience starting 6/23.

Thanks to all who take the time and pictures so we can have a better cruise!!

Q replaces the Supper Club on the Escape.

You can book at guest services or as you exit the terminal, they will sell you a pass. Lots and lots of buses continually leaving.

 

Because of the very limited street capacity at the terminal, NCL is pushing Port Valet and airport shuttles.

Not today.

Walking Around the Bliss - La Cucina

 

 

Since there is no open flames in the galley, they have fake flames in their “wood burning” pizza oven

Another question about the shuttle. I use a walker. Do the shuttle buses have a place to store this?

 

The Port Valet and airport shuttles sound like a great idea to me!

 

Once again, thanks for the amazing photo travelogue. Really appreciate all the work you did to make it happen. I feel like I know absolutely EVERYthing about the Bliss after your review. :)

Could you get a good selection of wines from the Cellar without having to pay extra above what was covered by the free beverage package?
