I agree with most of what your said. As for Alaska, I have never been there, but from what other people that have been there have told me is that the ships that are there now are the largest that can handle the area. The Wonder is about as big of a ship that can handle the rivers. A larger ship may not fit, plus the Panama Canal issue until it is complete.
The Celebrity Solstice goes to Alaska, on basically the same itinerary as the Wonder, and it's a huge ship (122K GT), pretty similar in size to the Dream/Fantasy (129K GT). It goes into Tracy Arm just fine, and that's about the tightest fit in the itinerary. The Grand Princess, Crown Princess, Golden Princess and Ruby Princess also go to Alaska are are quite big (110K - 115K GT). Compare to the Wonder at 83K GT.
