quack2 Posted April 26, 2022 #1 Share Posted April 26, 2022 I have the booked the Jewell Garden Glassblowing excursion in Skagway in mid-June through Holland. While it shows up in my itinerary, the time has been removed. Also, the downloadable excursion pdf document no longer lists it an an excursion. Is this another one that has bit the dust?

I am booked for early May on Princess. The time still displays and I show confirmed, but I cannot access any further details. I also checked the Jewell Gardens website and there is no information about 2022. I guess I will know more in about 2 weeks and can post an update.

I forgot to look at the other tour sites to verify. I guess I need to find a different option 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
strickerj Posted April 27, 2022 #5 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Same thing happened with my Butchart Gardens tour in Victoria - there's no longer a departure time listed, and it's gone from the shore excursions catalog. (It was scheduled for 6:30 PM, but we now arrive at 8:00 rather than 6:00.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
quack2 Posted April 27, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted April 27, 2022 Interesting that as we get closer to ships returning to Alaska, the number of cancelled excursions is increasing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the answer is just like everywhere in the world, shortage of staff; https://greeleytribune.net/tourists-are-returning-to-alaska-this-summer-will-there-be-enough-staff-to-manage-them/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abugarcia1 Posted May 2, 2022 #8 Share Posted May 2, 2022 That is too bad as we were hoping to visit Jewel Gardens and have been watching their website and Facebook page for updates which there have not been any since last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EarthByShip Posted May 6, 2022 #9 Share Posted May 6, 2022 We are on the July 31st Noordam sailing. We too got an email canceling the Glassblowing. Now our morning is free until our afternoon excursion. Maybe just enjoy an unhurried breakfast on the balcony. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelight Posted May 9, 2022 #10 Share Posted May 9, 2022 I am also very disappointed that this tour has been cancelled. I was really looking forward to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
