Review summary

This was a cruise with extended family. We had a good time on the ship and enjoyed the ports. My time dining was new for us and even though we made reservation in advance we had to wait with our party being big. But still it’s a vacation we had a good time from young to old. We always had something to do and sometimes double booked ours selves for an event. We did not get to ride the North Star. Our reservation where for the day of Skagway because we went to the glaciers at this time ours was canceled and rescheduled. It was rescheduled when we where going whale watching and by then all the slots were taken. Family was a little disappointed in that. Overall a great time.

Food and Dining

5 out of 5
The food was sometimes a hit or a miss. The service was great. In the main dinner it was pretty good most nights. The first night my teenage son had finished his dinner pretty fast and was ask if wanted an extra entree he then eat all of it too. Then the waiter from then all just brought him two entrees sometimes two appetizers too. The serving size we’re on the small side but just ask if your still hungry. The service was great.

Easy to navigate

Cabin / Stateroom

4 out of 5
We had connecting cabins it was nice to open the balconies together. Be mindful this cabin had a overhang so some of the view was blocked at the top. I think because it was block we didn’t get a lot of the wind that made it cold. Some of our party had a balcony on floor 11 and said it was too cold to use. We used ours a lot especially at night.

Ship tip

The elevators you need to pack your patience. They are some that need an elevator etiquette class. If I didn’t have to ride it with my mom I took the stairs. This is my major complaint. Especially the guy who push my elderly mom out of the way to get out. She was just too slow for this crowd. To that guy you know they do have buttons on them to keep the doors open. If you have elderly with you ride with them during the busy times.

Ports of call

Juneau, Alaska

5 out of 5
Done the whale watching excursion. It was awesome we saw orcas and humpback whales. Because Skagway was canceled we had extra time in Juneau to explore the town. It was beautiful with the mountains around.

Sitka, Alaska

3 out of 5
This was a shore excursion port. The town took about 30 minutes tops to explore

Seattle, Washington

3 out of 5
Was not what we thought and expensive.

We are cruising on the Quantum next June with a balcony on the 11th floor. Didn't think about that overhang.

Appreciate your feedback. We prefer assigned dining when in a large group (more than 6) to avoid long waits. Glad you mostly enjoyed your cruise.
