    Loved your Alaska videos!
    I am s Senior Citizen and have always wanted to go on an Alaskan cruise. Now I wonder if I could do all that walking. Even from the ship to the dock. Loved that you young people are able to travel like that.
    I had to laugh about most of your meal choices. Pizza, hotdogs, burgers, tacos, fries.
    😂 All those award winning chefs cooking for you too. 😉

      They have special lines or short cuts for people with mobility issues. You could always get a wheelchair as well for long parts. In every port with a ramp and stuff they provide alternative for the elder. Cruising can be done at any age.

    The free North Star is a short ride that you can sign up for in the app once on board, just goes up and down over the ship, when the ship is in port. But the paid "Extended North Star Experience" is a longer ride you can reserve before the cruise begins, which can only happen when at sea, that also moves the arm left and right and goes out over the edge of the ship so you are over the water.

    We found your channel a few weeks ago looking for what to pack for an Alaskan cruise. We head there in a month. I just wanted to let you know we have enjoyed watching your cruise videos. My daughter has autism and loves watching your videos so we have watched them all multiple times. We also love the RC cruise scratch off you guys made and plan to buy it soon! April

    According to what I’ve heard, the reason why they do the glaciers so early is because it’s the only way they can fit in a full day in Juneau Alaska, which from the level of activities that are there you need the whole day../The only other option would be probably to skip one of the other ports, either Sitka or Skagway

    This looks like a blast… We are doing our first Alaska cruise on Ovation next year for our anniversary, and then we’re going right back on the ship of the following March on a transpacific cruise from Sydney to Hawaii! 17 days! I think hopefully we won’t get bored with so many Sea Days (12!) with SO MUCH on this ship

    In the process of planning our RC Alaska cruise on Ovation of the Seas. Was thinking of booking a Jr suite for two main reasons, the bathrooms and the access to Costal Kitchen for dinner. What are your thoughts on Coastal Kitchen? I think I’ve only seen you eat there once on your Alaska cruise.

    • @Views-And-Queues
      @Views-And-Queues  ปีที่แล้ว

      We did only eat at Coastal Kitchen once on our Alaska cruise and once on our recent Symphony of the Seas cruise. I would say the food is on par with the main dining room, but you get much nicer service and a better atmosphere. We tend to prefer the food in the specialty restaurants though!

    • @Views-And-Queues
      @Views-And-Queues  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Make sure to prep for rain. It’s very likely it will rain most of the time you’re in port. So pack lots of waterproof stuff and maybe an extra pair of shoes in case they get soaked and need to sit out to dry. Hope you have a great time!

    • @Views-And-Queues
      @Views-And-Queues  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Loved using it! It’s a lot of fun! The only issue is that it’s very hard to keep steady when zoomed in far, which a tripod could solve.
      We wish we had more waterproof clothing. And it would have been nice to have a spare pair of shoes, so that you can put on a dry pair when you get back onboard.

      @@Views-And-Queues I will probably rent a camera and like the idea of a point and shoot. Going between the P1000 and the Sony RX10-IV currently. I wasn't sure how handy a tripod would be on a cruise ship, since it's unsteady by its nature.
