Rare rheathslc Posted August 20, 2021 #326 Share Posted August 20, 2021 2 hours ago, wondertwinsmom said: Also, according to him Ombuds description am I right to assume that the weather for Glacier Bay was once again rainy and with low Visibility like last week? After the first group posted such beautiful pictures I was hopeful but it seems that has not been the case for the rest of the sailings. Crossing my fingers that September will bring a few days of sun here and there 🤞 September in Alaska is my FAVORITE. In the 7ish years I lived there (on and off) I found September to be colder but typically a little drier. But I'm also more familiar with the Anchorage/Seward/Whittier area vs the Southeast so it might not hold true for that area. Hope you get great weather!

I do have a question that I don’t believe has been asked yet: Are there any local Alaskan beers onboard? Yes! Here is what is available to order through the app: Alaskan Husky IPA $6.75 Alaskan Kolsh $6.75 Alaskan White $6.75 All available on the beverage plan. Hope this helps. 7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sent an email yesterday to the grouponboardservices and heard nothing, but now I will send it directly to Diana. Is Jasper the CD? Jasper is the Hotel GM Dan is the CD & i heard he's getting off Diana Hall is working remotely and can only access the office email. But she will answer (or the supervisor Pam Dyachenko will) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have some b2b's coming up and would like to know. Thank you. We kept our same Medallion. We were told the battery in them lasts about 2-3 weeks. We were able to use it for our new cabin about 8am on turnaround day but it still worked for the old one long enough for us to move our things. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question for CPAP users...is there an electrical outlet on the nightstand or behind the bed? Our cabin did not have one. There were only two USB ports at the head of one bed. The first thing I requested when we got on board was an extension cord, and they set it up that day and strung it across the room from the desk. The steward removed it and coiled it every day, and I uncoiled it and plugged it back in every night. We passed other open rooms during the cruise, and I saw extension cords in their rooms too. The rooms in general didn't have many electrical outlets. Our room had two US outlets (at the desk) and the two USB outlets (at the head of one bed). There were also other country outlets. We asked guest services for some adapters, and they said we'd have to buy them from the shops if we wanted them. It appears from the last post that different cabin configurations may have different outlets. It was easy enough to get a heavy-duty extension cord once you're on board, though. You can also request distilled water through the personalizer for your cpap. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purple Gallinule Posted August 20, 2021 #344 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Just looking at webcamketchican.com and it looks like a beautiful day. We can see the ship sitting at the dock and cannot wait to board on Sep 19th. We just got our COVID test appointment at our doctor's office, so that is taken care of. Thank you to all for your great posts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted August 20, 2021 #346 Share Posted August 20, 2021 Did anyone make a note on the breakdown of passengers by Captain's Circle level?

Most ports have some sort of local brews, too. I've been to Skagway Brewing Company, Devil's Club Brewing in Juneau, and had local beers at the restaurants in Icy Straight Point, as well as at a bar towards Hoonah. I saw Sitka has a microbrewery too, Harbor Mountain Brewing, which is about a mile from downtown. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DH is going to try to get the details from her tonight or tomorrow and if he does I’ll post them. First place had 14xx days I think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
