Review summary

I would highly recommend this cruise as a good way to see Alaska. He excursions that are offered are a good way to see the incredible beauty of this state. We saw whales and bears and bald eagles along the shoreline we cruised on. When we travel we pack light and travel with a carry on and a backpack. Most people are shocked that you can go on a 7-11 day trip as we do and pack such few items. Yes you can do it and there are dryers and washers on board where you can keep your clothing fresh. When it comes to the time to embark and disembark when you travel so light you can quickly go to your cabin and upon departing we were among the first thru customs and into a taxi. Surprisingly we departed the ship at 7:20 in the morning and made a 9am flight back home.

How do you pack dress clothes, especially suit for man?

Wow! You had Customs, the TSA, and a little luck on your side. Glad you enjoyed Alaska on the Emerald.
