Will definitely take another Alaska cruise but at a different port further north and hopefully make it back to Skagway. First time sailing on Celebrity but decided to book again while on the ship to another destination. Staff was pleasant, kudos to the captain for finding another port at the last minute when unexpected mudslide at Skagway closed the port, was really looking forward to the train ride. Also didn't get to Tracy Arm due to visibility but the captain took alternate path which was breathtaking as well.

Food and Dining
5 out of 5
The main dining had many options, did not visit the specialty restaurants. The buffet had consistent varied choices daily which I typically utilized at lunch.
Onboard Activities

One of the days at sea was taxing, not as much seemed to be planned to pass the time.

Cabin / Stateroom
5 out of 5
The room was roomier than other ocean view rooms and the windows were large, could sit on the ledge rather than just a small circle to peep out of.
We didn't arrive to port until a Thursday at 530PM, by the time you disembark and catch the shuttle it's almost 630 and everything is closed by 6 except for a few restaurants and all the tourist traps, plus it's dusk when you get there so really couldn't see much.
A mudslide! Guess from all the reviewers talking of rain this Summer, a mud slide was not unwarranted. But the timing was bad for your cruise. Hope nobody hurt, and the cleanup is relatively easy.
