Review summary

Just returned from our Alaskan cruisetour. Our first post covid cruise. Cruise was 60% full, with the crew at 100%. We did cruise first, thought we could use a few more days at Denali and Mt McKinley. Food was great and the staff was also happy to be back to work. Already have made future cruise payment.

Embarkation

The medallion apps is great in theory but needs to have the bugs worked out. The staff is always very helpful in directing you to where you should go

Food and Dining

We thought the food was good. My husband always looked forward to the loveboat dessert. We discovered it was changed. Now not as good what it was.

It was great to see common areas being cleaned more often including handrails and doorknobs.

Cabin / Stateroom

Our cabin was great. It was my husband's first time in a mini suite. I don't think we will be going back to an inside cabin anytime soon.

Ship tip

Make sure you find Zen and Allan at Crooners bar
