Cruise was nice, but Princess cancelled our Ketchikan port visit and substituted Icy Strait Point, a cruiseline owned stop which was basically just a bunch of cruiseline owned tourist shops. I should have complained to the cruiseline or asked for at least a partial refund, but ran out of time due to other issues.
Embarkation
3 out of 5
Princess's bussing process from SEA airport was poorly executed and resulting an hour and a half wait for transportation to the ship. Should've just taken an uber.
Ship experiences
Food and Dining
4 out of 5
Food was good, not great in the main dining rooms and buffets. Crown Grill was excellent.
Onboard Activities
3 out of 5
Not a lot of activities onboard (too cold to use the pools). For an Alaskan cruise, assumed they would have planned for this.
Entertainment

Wish they would have services for kids under 3.

Cabin / Stateroom
4 out of 5
Wish the mini-suite would have a curtain or something that would close between the bed and sitting area where we put the pack-n-play for our son.
Love Skagway, white pass train ride was wonderful. Definitely book through Skymiles, we had a lot better experience than those booking though the ship.
