ddg64 Posted June 6, 2008 #26 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I know this is going to sound stupid, I was only at the Whittier cruise terminal once and Carnival handled everything for me. Is the PWS tour close to where we board the ship? I guess what I am trying to find out is once you get back from the tour how are you getting your luggage to the ship. There are several shops next to the where you board your ship that sell tickets to the PWS tour. We walked into the first one and they called PWS and they had a van pick us up and take us to their dock. It is not far to walk, but too far to carry luggage. They kept our luggage locked in the van all day, then after the tour, they gave us and our luggage a ride back to the ship. They also offered to take our luggage to the ship for us while we were on the PWS tour, but we had not tagged them yet, so we just waited. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beachside395 Posted June 6, 2008 #27 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Help! I was checking prices to ride the train to Whittier from Anchorage on the day of our cruise. I believe it said "No checked baggage." Anyone know if that is true. If so, where do you put your bags? Overhead? This would be our only opportunity to ride the ARR. Thanks, Terri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
