CaptainWoody Posted May 24, 2021 #3 Share Posted May 24, 2021 Yep. Nice to get the formal confirmation. We're booked on the Bliss in October. I had given up on Alaska this year after they cancelled both our May and original October bookings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have a 15 day cruisetour with Princess next June to Alaska and B2B Caribbean In January. I just want to be able to poke around the towns and see more local stuff. Did they revise the itinerary with Victoria removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they revise the itinerary with Victoria removed? Having lived in Alaska and cruised there several times, I recommend you look at the daylight hour chart I offered in the other NCL Bliss thread. The new revised itinerary (without Victoria) has glacier viewing from 5-9p.m. but for the October sailings the sun sets before 6:00. Of course, they may revise the October sailings to account for lack of daylight, but it's something to consider late in the season. With all that said, I'm also considering a late season sailing. I know what to expect from weather and daylight. Like you, I just want to sail :). However; I won't book until very last minute. I expect the late season Alaskan sailings will be heavily discounted.

Thanks, didn't know if they would extend the time in Ketchikan since they are not stopping in Victoria. Glacier Bay is beautiful was on the Jewel in September 2019. Will decide in the next day what I am doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
