Glacial Crown – Ketchikan, Juneau & Skagway
About this cruise
If you want the classic cruise without a massive time commitment, this is a strong option. 7 nights from Seattle on September 26, 2027, visiting Ketchikan, Tracy Arm Fjord, Juneau, Skagway and Vancouver. You finish in Vancouver. The ports come early and the voyage wraps with sea days. A good way to decompress before heading home. Glaciers, whales, snow-capped mountains. Alaska is about as far from a beach holiday as you can get. Most ports give you about 8 hours, so you can do more than just tick off the main sights. As for the ship itself, Star Princess (2025) is one of the newer ships out there, with current design and recent tech throughout. Being shoulder season helps: golden light, comfortable weather, and shorter queues at the popular spots. You'll probably start planning the next one before this one's even over.
