Had signed up for Port Valet to have our luggage taken from the ship to the airport. Tried to verify with Carnival and they didn't offer it. Disembarked with no problems!

Appreciate your feedback. The HUB (carnival’s app for everything while on board) still has a long way to go, IMHO. Glad you mostly enjoyed your cruise.

Overall I really enjoyed the cruise. I was a solo traveler and met some really awesome new friends. Loved all the ports there was so much to do. Wish I could spend more time in each city. Definitely check out the lifts in hoonah and get some crab legs!
Great Cruise to Alaska
