Review summary

First Alaska cruise. We had rainy/foggy weather in Ketchikan and Juneau, and our Endicott and Dawes Glacier part of the cruise was cancelled due to fog, so we were disappointed with that. The White Pass RR was excellent and the Skagway sail away were the highlight of the cruise.

Embarkation

3 out of 5

Lines were way to long at the port in Seattle, just to get into the building. Once inside and past security, it was better and check-in was quick and efficient.

Service and Staff

Staff was excellent. Had a great room steward and dining staff were super nice (same table every night)

Ship Quality

5 out of 5

New ship and it looks great. Love the more traditional Princess layout of the ship with the open piazza/atrium. Wish the Promenade deck wrapped all around the ship though.

Cabin / Stateroom

5 out of 5

A little small, but love the newer Princess color decor and design. Beds were comfortable. Nice to have USB ports at each bedside table and desk. Love the large TV and free on-demand movies as well.
