Review summary

Any trip making memories with family is great. We booked a tour in Seward when we disembarked and took Alaska Railway to Anchorage that evening. We spent two days in Anchorage. The biggest downside of the trip was American Airlines who totally messed up our reservations.

Embarkation

4 out of 5
Missed embarkation photos - they had left when we checked in.

Ship experiences

Food and Dining

3 out of 5
Would have liked more variety. No cranberry juice available. In theater area, you had to walk to mid ship to get your own drinks.

Service and Staff

5 out of 5
Felt forced into any time dining. If you did not make reservations as soon as you boarded the ship for all nights, you couldn't get them for early times.

Ship Quality

2 out of 5
This ship needs updating. Rust, small tiles missing in bathroom, etc. We were supposed to have a larger size balcony, but it was the size of balconies on other ship lines.
