What a great way to see around all the Disney resorts. Shame it was so hot on the day you did it. Loved seeing in all the different hotels, they are gorgeous inside.

I’d LOVE to meet you guys in WDW!!!

Did the Bliss last September to Alaska. We were in the Haven and it was fabulous!!

The heat can completely drain every bit of energy. 😮😢

Nice bag Beth! 😉

Looks like fun! The yacht club is our favorite resort. ( I have done a pool tour video) thanks for sharing and looking forward to see your next video. Captain Hook is single-handily the best Disney villain. 🤣🤣 PS Is I wouldn’t kick her out of bed for eating crackers a west Michigan saying? I used it all the time when I was younger 😂

Guess how many STEPS we did during the Skyliner Scavenger Hunt? (We’ll tell you higher or lower until someone gets it right!)

Ok so you miss a meal? You are ready to bail off NCL? I've been on 27 cruises and it does happen. Have a cocktail and relax, we all could stand to miss a meal or two. All cruises are like that on short days. EVERYONE wants OFF and then then EVERYONE wants back on. It's vacation relax.

Is there a shuttle to cross the bridge? Thanks for a great review.

NCL - my least favorite cruise line. NCL’s Prima - my least favorite ship.

Seems like the moral of the story is to cruise on a line that ports near the place everyone is going to, versus miles away? NCL tries to make this out like a benefit but as you've been able to document - not so much 🤔

In Ketchikan early May 2024. Loved it even with the ubiquitous liquid sun. Nice people, quaint historic town. 'Touristy' of course. Don't miss the saloon and have a Duck Fart.

I was there in September 2022 and love Ketchikan. Used to work on Princess ships and always loved Alaska. We used to do 19 or 20 cruises per season and once I was there for the entirety. Last time I nearly had a heart attack when I ordered a Flat White coffee and it was over USD 7.00. It wasn't even that great either.

I lived within walking, and specifically hearing distance, of where the cruise dock. The ‘pier’ mentioned is the Ogden Point breakwater at Dallas Road, a very popular walkway - 244 metres, or 800 feet. Our cherry trees tend to blossom in February, I think they were late this year (2024)They were gifted to Victoria 85 years ago by the local Japanese community and are treasured by locals and cared by the municipalities.

Obviously a NCL glitch in their programming. A bit confused why they would charge you, or why you would choose a charter, around Ketchikan when you can walk.

The itineraries I have looked at specify whether they are docking at Ward Cove or Ketchikan. And for the record, Ketchikan is actually a year 'round community. Most of the residents avoid the areas that are overrun by cruisers during the day, so the cruisers may only see the carpet bagger army that runs the cheesy gift shops, but there are 12,000+ people who live there all year. It is actually a pleasant visit during the off season, there are regular flights to Seattle and Juneau and ferry service up and down the coast.

Great tour! We just booked this ship for an 11 day Italy cruise next Summer and are very excited.

Your son is so blessed. I felt his excitement and joy. I checked the prices, I expected something outrageous for a 3-hour show in a VIP lounge. My issue is: do I go to Eurovision and sit, or do I join the mad crowd and dance all night long? Thanks for the vlog, you convinced me to check tickets for the show in Switzerland. Even if the prices shall be muuuuch different.

Hi! Thank you for posting. We are looking at flying into San Diego for our next Disneyland trip. How was the drive from San Diego to Anaheim?

hi yeah I'm gutted I went 2nd Jun paid for VIP (before I saw your vid) and they gave me a tote bag with the teddy mickey in......that was it... they said they were out of stock of all the rest of the items and took my address so they could post it all to me.... 3 weeks down the line ive emailed them called them and no luck so far at getting the items. I keep getting passed on to different companies and people with excuses... so annoying as I paid vip and hardly got anything they promised... After seeing your vid the limited 100 pin which was what I wanted well... you didn't get it either.... I feel like its been very bad customer service and I'm really out of pocket Disney! Plus the event ends on the 23rd in three days time so I doubt ill get any of it now. not a happy lady but tbh it doesn't look very good anyway :) thought I would share my experience just annoyed that Ive paid for air.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 When she said she was trying to eat healthy at the start of the cruise-and the way in which he said it didn't last long 😂😂😂. I laughed so hard!!!!!

I liked Wards Cove. It is better with the smaller ships since the larger ships crowd the ports. I went on the double-decker bus just for the round trip sightseeing. I went on an excursion to a park near Wards Cove. When I was n Alaska in 2018 I went on an all day excursion so don't remember anything about the town. I did not know that the main dining rooms were ever open on a port day. When they are open on sea days the closing time is to give the crew enough time to get the venue cleaned up and ready for dinner with hopefully some time for the staff to get a little bit of a break. You folks seem to like being negative so that attitude will negatively affect your cruise experience.

I just got back yesterday from princess in Alaska and it was amazing and not at all like this. I recommend princess for Alaska hands down.

The Mill had a clearance section with great prices. Stuff was probably less than half price.

We went to The Lumberjack Show. I would have rather walked around the town. Very campy and a waste of time. We also toured Totem Park. Tourist trap.

This is the first video of yours that I have seen. I think Tony should do all the talking. I rarely understood a word that Beth said.

I love NCL! Our family trip is July 20th. What them party activities can we expect? The glow party is my favorite.

Use Holland America , best. Cruise to Alaska, and less hassle

Victoria is a phony tourist trap.

Cream first. Always cream first!

We love NCL. on our B2B Alaska from Vancouver they kept mdr open an extra hour to get every one in. Princess from Galveston was the disappointment.

Great video. I’ll be cruising there in August.

I always order veggie or vegan meals on flights

You should bring a meal deal from Boots or W H Smith.

What is in that quinoa? Veggies? Spicey? Looks like a version of kimchi.

Ah this made me so excited for my trip in September! We are flying BA economy too so it’s great to know what to expect, thank you for so much detail! Note to self, bring snacks for the plane 🤣 Also Beth I love your jacket!

I will never understand why for the life of me understand why airline or bus seats recline. It's an invasion of space for the person behind the recliner..... So annoying... Love travel videos. TFS!!!

Just back from Alaskan Cruise on the Brilliance of the Seas, Royal Carribean - no issues at all with Meals, docking, getting on/off ship - docked in great places at all ports, Shuttles if needed ran smoothly - never an issue with restuarants included in cruise - defineately go with them again. A smaller and older ship but no complaints - had an amazing time - well organised and run

Just the long hours 😂 tbf it’s worse on the way back! Love your magic band! I can’t wait to go back again🥲 Hoping to head back next year! Where did you get your wee mic? Xx We flew with Air Lingus and the food was pretty much the same xx like literally this exact same pretzels and everything 😂 Hope you had the best time! Love the wee Mickeys snores kit💕

Agree 💯on your plane food observations, definitely less these days, we flew BA to Miami recently and it was exactly the same food although we did get our chocolate pudding. Not a fan of the sausage roll looking pasty but we were so hungry we ate it. The quinoa pot definitely didn’t get eaten. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your trip. Have an awesome weekend 🤩

We went last summer to Alaska on Viking Orion. It was amazing! Never trouble getting amazing food. Never waited in lines to get on or off the ship.

Ncl, beautiful ships but they can't organize anything efficiently. Took a panorama canal cruise with them, it was a gong show getting people off the ship onto the waiting buses. The ship was at fault and we lost time off the ship because of them.

What’s YOUR least favorite thing about air travel these days? Let us know 👇

We just went beginning of may with Celebrity and everything was amazing! We had a sunny warm day in Ketchikan and went kayaking, absolutely beautiful! Took an NCL last year and never again, terrible food.

As far as chaos on the big ships, some of that has to do with Alaska, things are different in Alaska. Some has to do with being on a big ship. I prefer the smaller NCL ships. They are allowed to dock closer and stay long in most of the Alaskan ports, plus we've always done one direction Alaskan cruise. As for Christmas cruises, you will need to book things as early as you can. Not sure of your ship but smaller ships have the Great Outdoors on the fantail for breakfast - faster than the main buffet. Bused, tendor ports are more chaos. Those you can walk on and off are less chaotic

I have never sailed NCL to Alaska so I can't comment on that itinerary, I can say though that I've never had this experience on an NCL Caribbean Cruise, and I've taken several.

Thank you so much for the great video. We are going to be on the Bliss for a NYE cruise. Thank you for the very detailed video to help us prepare. It definitely adds to our excitement! All the best to you! 😄

We did Holland America and docked close to the city makes a big difference.
