808cruisers Posted April 9, 2023 #1 Share Posted April 9, 2023 Going to try for the 1:15 Lumberjack show (1 hr) before 3pm Ketchikan port departure. Is this is too close for comfort? It's 3 minutes away from cruise dock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MBP&O2/O Posted April 10, 2023 #2 Share Posted April 10, 2023 Private visit or ship arranged visit? 3pm departure will mean be on board by, probably, 2:30 pm latest. Too close imho. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
808cruisers Posted April 10, 2023 Author #3 Share Posted April 10, 2023 It's private, a walk over from the dock. Maybe I could leave the show 5 mins earlier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the ship is docked at berth #1, it is close to the Lumberjack Show, but if at berth #4 the walk is > 1/2 mile. Do you know for certain which berth the ship is assigned? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And when we were there, we were anchored out, requiring us to wait for a tender. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next 2 cruises to Alaska we are considering are also both tender ports (Ketchikan), due to the increased number of ships in Alaska.
