Beware of the stateroom bathrooms if you are tall. Book your excursions early. Beware the staff experiences you get one day will not necessarily be the same the next.

Do your research if traveling with children-this was not a family friendly environment for us.

It's a bit of an smaller ship, so be prepared to attend events early or sign up way ahead of time.

Club Orange is well worth doing. We had priority boarding and embarkation, the club orange dining room was perfect for more intimate dining experience (and more options).

Pick stateroom with cabins above and below, vista suite was very nice and spacious

We read a zillion posts about traveling to Alaska and not dressing up even on HAL. So many said "it's a casual cruise, it's not necessary." We ignored that advice because we like to dress up on vacations -- like a long date night. We were really glad we did too. Lots of people were dressed up! It felt good to be dressing up for each other -- it definitely made us feel like it was Date Night and we had a great time with it. Certainly not required but it was fun & we enjoyed having the clothes with us to make the choice to dress up. It did mean we brought full suitcases and that was fine too. No one is winning awards for bringing everything only in a carry on; if you want to have outfit choices and the extra warm clothes for the weather - pack them and wear them. :)

Remember that 2000+ people are with you on your vacation. Sea days can be a little crowded but you will find your spot.
