Anyway, I came across a very interesting rumor... Basically the rumor is that DCL will be sailing in Alaska in 2008. If that is true, maybe that is why HAL & DVC have not come to a contract agreement
You're probably right. Boy, DCL in Alaska is going to take a bunch more points! I thought the points were high for HAL but for DCL I'm guessing it'll be at least 25% more. It looks I'll be paying cash and doing Princess for my Alaska cruise in '08.
You can't go wrong with Princess or HAL for a Alaska cruise. Both lines have been in Alaska for years and get preferential docking over all the other lines. They both have naturalist on board which is also helpful when you're cruising the inner passage.
