Alaska Glacier Trail – Hubbard & Juneau
About this cruise
There's a reason 7-night cruises are the most popular length. This one sails from Whittier on September 14, 2026 and visits Hubbard Glacier, Icy Strait Point, Juneau, Skagway, Ketchikan and Vancouver. You finish in Vancouver. The itinerary clusters several port calls together. Fast-paced for a few days, then the sea days hit and you can catch your breath. Glaciers calving into the water, bald eagles overhead, and air that smells like pine. It's a different kind of cruise. You get around 9 hours in each port, which is enough for an excursion, lunch, and some wandering around on your own. When you're not ashore, There are 13 restaurants on Norwegian Jade, so you'd need to double up a few evenings to try them all in 7 nights. A September sailing dodges the peak crowds while the weather is still cooperating. Well timed. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
