    Dinner Dress in Alaska

    I am from Arizona and get cold easily. I also don't own many dresses appropriate for cold weather. Having said that, I wore my summer dresses with a light shrug and was just fine. I never had a night at dinner where I felt cold. Now walking outside on deck was another story. We really expected...

    You are all going to have so much fun! It was the highlight of our trip. The dogs and musher were great and the ice field landing was beautiful. Never would I have guessed we would have had so much fun! I am so excited for you to experience this excursion and am wishing we could join you...

    We went to Tracy's and I wish we could have gone back! I will definitely try and get back there someday. It was the best crab we have ever had. We had the sampler (not sure what it was really called) and it was a good size lunch for 2 of us. We had early dining and lunch was late. I could...

    We booked through DCL and also did the Knudson Cove excursion. We tried to book privately but I had a hard time finding someone who wasn't already booked or contracted through DCL. I think we could have done it cheaper, but I have no complaints booking through DCL. I hope he has a great time!

    We did the salmon fishing and we ended up having a good time. I have to admit that it wasn't my favorite excursion (we zip lined in Skagway and did the helicopter to the dog sled and ice field in Juneau) but it was good. It was rainy and cold but our captain, Kyle, was very nice and tried to get...

    Just returned from Alaska 6/3-6/10 ... AMAZING

    Our boys (12 & 14) actually spent a lot of time in the clubs. It was our first cruise and first time in Alaska but they got to see so much at the ports they didn't mind hanging with some friends. We had to make them spend an hour with us while viewing Tracy Arm. We saw a ton of wild life and...

    Hi! We are from Peoria but my husband works on your side of town, in Mesa. Looking forward to meeting you on sail away day! I think I am going to be a little chilly on this trip!

    Set your DVRs!

    You should. I think it showed up in my guide as "Ameri". It is channel 194 in AZ. Don't know if channels changed based on region. Looks like the only new show is Monday night. :tinker:

    For those of you who are veteran cruisers...What time do you actually get off the ship? I am thinking about transportation to take us back to the airport, but don't know what time to schedule it for. DCL says we are off the ship at 8am. Is that accurate? Thanks for the help! Jenna :tink:

    We booked the Salmon fishing through DCL. We looked into booking on our own but the company I had seen good reviews on actually does the tour for DCL. We are doing this in Ketichan at the beginning of June. I can let you know how it went when we get back if you would like. :tink:

    We booked the St. Regis Hotel on Sunday. It is a boutique hotel that has free breakfast also. Had great reviews on hotels.com. I was looking at the Pan Pacific also, but it looks like it is all sold out for the 2nd. :tink:

    Yay! Another Arizonan! Welcome to the group. I have a 12 year old boy also (and a 14 year old boy). There are several boys in our group around that age. We are still trying to figure out what types of warm stuff to bring. The cooler weather is going to be a shock for sure. I heard to...

    We just booked a special helicopter tour through Coastal Helicopters for the Juneau stop on 6/7. This tour is a 3-1/2 tour that consists of a helicopter ride to have an hour long dogsled experience AND a 20 minute landing on an icefield. Normally, companies only offer one or the other. In order...

    **** Vancouver FAQ Thread **** A few updates in main post!

    I didn't purchase it so I didn't find out what hotel it was. I chickened out after they told me i could have a room at that price. Made me nervous because I saw that Priceline only guarantees double occupancy and we have 4 total for the room. I am holding off for now. May end up going with...
