Regent Seven Seas Cruises Unveils New Fare Options

• May 30, 2024

Regent Seven Seas Cruises has unveiled new fare options, providing guests with more ways to tailor their journey to their unique preferences, according to a press release.

  Guests who make a booking on or after July 1, 2024, can choose between:

• All-Inclusive Cruise Fare, with perks ranging from unlimited shore excursions and specialty dining to valet laundry service. Guests can also use credit cards or airline loyalty points to purchase their flights.
• Ultimate All-Inclusive Fare, which includes roundtrip flights with the ability to choose their preferred air class and up to $500 credit per suite ($250 per guest) for a private executive chauffeur service through Blacklane, a new service that may be used for additional transfers between home and airport or to upgrade complimentary airport to ship coach transfers.

“We are thrilled to announce our new All-Inclusive Fare options which cement Regent’s industry-leading value proposition as The Most Inclusive Luxury Experience, while giving guests more freedom and flexibility to personalize their journey to their unique tastes and preferences,” said Andrea DeMarco, president of Regent Seven Seas Cruises.

“After gathering extensive feedback from our loyal guests and valued Travel Partners the message was loud and clear that ‘Flexibility is the Ultimate Luxury’ with luxury travelers desiring more choice to customize their travel before and after their cruise experience.”

“Guests who still want to include business class air in their package can easily do so by choosing the Ultimate All-Inclusive Fare and their desired air class, ensuring an even more hassle-free and seamless journey from start to finish. With our new Ultimate All-Inclusive Fare, guests will enjoy even more luxuries included with the addition of a brand new up to $500 per suite private executive chauffeur service inclusion in partnership with Blacklane which can be used to upgrade any part of their travel journey.” 

Blacklane will also become the line’s exclusive provider for private transfers for guests who have attained Seven Seas Society Titanium status and above, granting them free private transfers.

Dr. Jens Wohltorf, CEO and founder of Blacklane, added: “Adding our premium chauffeur service experience to Regent Seven Seas Cruises’ new Ultimate All-Inclusive Fare is an honor. We, along with our chauffeurs, strive to deliver an unforgettable peace-of-mind experience to our guests – what better way for luxury travelers to start or end an outstanding vacation this way.”

City & shore magazine | a postcard from ‘grandeur,’ regent seven seas’ newest cruise ship.

Why we wish you were here

Because Grandeur’s about as close as you’re going to feel you’ve boarded a private yacht on a commercial cruise ship.

Not that boarding here is particularly stressful, but there are chilled flutes of Heidsieck Monopole Blue Top Brut waiting at the end of the gangway from everything you left behind at PortMiami. There’s another bottle of Monopole in an ice bucket in your suite, too, in the unlikely event you feel any stress getting there.

The 332-square-foot Concierge Suite feels spacious, with a walk-in closet and good separation between the cabin door and the living areas. A valet brings the luggage and sets it on a welcome blanket across the king-sized bed. The 83-square-foot balcony is bigger than some cabins – possibly homes –  I’ve personally occupied, and comes with a pair of 8.5 x 21 Pentax Papillo II binoculars, because you’re going to see some things from up here.

There’s a shower and tub in the marbled bathroom. Lavender bubble bath and jasmine shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and body milk, all by L’Occitane. There’s a phone in there, too, in case you think of anything you may require from the steward. (He was out in the hall memorizing guest names the last time I saw him. He remembered mine. Even pronounced it correctly). Details you’d expect on a private yacht.

Everywhere throughout this 14-deck, 735-foot ship, there are such small, elegant touches that say big things. The tables spread with white linens in the stylish Compass Rose dining room on Deck 4 are set with Rosenthal Versace china designed exclusively for Regent Seven Seas Cruises. The cozy loungers and Jacuzzis off the Serene Spa & Wellness Center on Deck 5 overlook the ship’s wake and, shhhhhh , hardly anyone knows about them.

Then there’s the haute cuisine and the name-dropping Louis VIII, Opus One, Stag’s Leap Wine Cellar labels around the ship. And the feeling you’ve checked into a boutique hotel at sea. Or a private yacht. One where the Caribbean or the Mediterranean or the Gulf of St. Lawrence comes to you.

What they’re drinking

Strawberry Sparkler

Ingredients

5 ozs. High-quality prosecco

¾ oz. Fragoli, a wild strawberry liqueur

1 Tbsp. Fresh strawberries, puréed

Sliced fresh strawberries (for garnish)

Sliced fresh lemon (for garnish)

An homage to Grandeur’s Italian shipyard roots, this simple cocktail is pretty and refreshing. Purée the fresh strawberries, strain the fiber from the liquid; add strawberry liquids and chilled prosecco in a champagne glass. Serve with a slice or two of strawberry and lemon.

“Do I want a big pop or small pop? [Crowd, answering, timidly: “uh, small pop?”] Small pop, right! Why do I want a small pop? [Crowd shifts silently, not sure.] Because chefs are cheap! We like to save money. So what we love to do is save as much champagne or prosecco as possible.”

– Culinary Arts Kitchen Cooking Class Chef John Stephano, showing his 18 students how to open a bottle of bubbly without losing a drop.

What’s cooking

There are four specialty restaurants aboard Grandeur, and one cooking class that can teach you how to make your own memorable meal.

“What do you never want to do on vacation?” Chef John Stephano teases the 18 guests before his hour-long Culinary Arts Cooking Class. “The last thing you ever want to do is the dishes. Anybody who really struggles in their culinary skills today we’ll be sending down to the galleys to help us out.”

Nervous laughs around the cooking stations in the Culinary Arts Kitchen on Deck 11.

“No, not at all!” he says, laughing, before showing his class how to make Pasta al Limone and classic French crêpes with allspice berry ice cream.

Stephano comes from a big Irish-Italian family in Philadelphia, where there was always something cooking on the stove, he says. Since no open-flame gas burners are allowed on the ship, he’s had to adapt some of his grandmother’s recipes to the induction cooktops each member of his class gets to work with.

“You can’t use regular pots and pans on these stoves – they have to be magnetic,’’ he says. “I always hear from someone who likes cooking with induction so much here they want to get it at home, then find out they have to change all of their cooking utensils.”

For the pasta dish, students learn what mise en place means (literally, everything in place), whether to add the oil to the water or the pan, how to use a zester for the lemon, whether to rip or cut the basil and how to serve pasta (in a warm bowl warmed with the pasta water.) After about 20 minutes of the chef’s steady guidance, everyone’s pasta al limone looks ready for the cover of a food magazine.

“Who wants a picture with their pasta!?” Everyone does.

The crêpe instruction follows, including a two-handed, chef-secret dump and roll maneuver to get the batter to spread evenly on the pan.

“I want you to ease in, like you’re driving a race car,’’ he says, demonstrating. “No flipping crêpes here – try that at home if you like.”

Twenty minutes later, the crêpes also all look magazine-cover ready. (It may help that Strawberry Sparkler cocktails were served before class began).

“Nice job,’’ Stephano says, reviewing mine.

“Thanks, chef!” I say, not exactly ready to join the cast of The Bear but ridiculously impressed with myself.

Don’t miss, part I

Impossible to miss, really, because Grandeur’s Fabergé egg is among the first things you see (after the welcome champagne) when you board on Deck 5. Sarah Fabergé, great-grand daughter of Peter Fabergé, was aboard for the christening of the ship and unveiling of the 180 mm, diamond, pearl and emerald egg last December in Miami. If you must ask, “I can’t disclose the value – other than it was created especially for Regent,’’ a spokesperson says. “I will say it’s in the multi millions.” And worth even more to lend the impression you’ve stepped onto someone’s private yacht. Someone with deep pockets – and considerable taste in art.

Don’t miss part II

While some cruise lines are downsizing – even replacing ship libraries with crêpe stations ( ca alors !) – Grandeur’s library is lovingly, borderline reverently, tended. If libraries are making a last stand, this one’s an oceangoing Alamo – with eclectic out-of-nowhere titles ranging from “L’Âpre et splendide Espagne” by Camille Mauclair to “The Bazaars of Istanbul” by Isabel Bocking. Biography, history, fiction, large print, nautical transport, practical advice, reference, science & natural history, sports & leisure, travel & travel writing, visual arts and children’s books – all within easy-to-grab and sprawl on a nearby comfy couch or chair.

Not that there’s anything wrong with the live shows in the two-level Constellation Theater, featuring a demographically hep mix of hits from the ’70s, ’80s and ’90s performed by an earnest troupe of singers and dancers. They’re fine after-dinner diversions. But “Key Largo” is playing on a loop on the big-screen TV in the cabin. And if you haven’t seen it, it’s one of Bogie and Bacall’s best. Just saying.

Regent Seven Seas Grandeur

Accommodating 744 guests, with 372 suites and 532 crew. Four specialty restaurants, including Compass Rose; Pacific Rim, an Asian-Fusion restaurant; Chartreuse, a French restaurant; Prime 7, a steakhouse. Casual eateries include Sette Mari, at the back of La Veranda dining area on Deck 11, which does breakfast and lunch in the morning/afternoon and Italian food at night; pool-grille cafe/buffet and Coffee Connection. Fitness center and spa with a sauna. Jogging track, putting green, bocce court, pickleball court. Boutique, casino, business center, among other amenities. The Grandeur is sailing the Mediterranean now through August. It returns to PortMiami (from New  York) on Nov. 7, where it will resume various itineraries through March 2025 before returning to Europe.

Regents brands as a high end cruise line. We just came back from a 14 day cruise and it was anything but. If you must go with Regent avoid at all costs the Navigator It is a very old and worn out ship. Vibrations from the engine and shafts that will knock your drinks off the table and keep you up at nighty. If you are older and not in good shape leave your bathing suit at home you may get into the pool but you cannot get out, it is an old style small pool with no steps. Food that was just passable. It was so bad we had club sandwiches some nights from room service. Main dining room has low ceilings and a couple of drunk tables can ruin the room. Staff that was untrained. Old and outdated staterooms. High school grade entertainment. Th piano player was so bad we only went there once in 14 nights on a ship with not much else to do. Cheap wine. You would be better off going with a mid level cruise line upgrading to a large suite and you would pay half of what they charge and have a much better vacation. We cruise twice a year and will never go back to Regent again.

A bunch of wise guys! Do you see this..... The Independent has contacted Royal Caribbean for comment. Under the cruise operator's terms and conditions, guests are required to pay in full the expenses they incurred on their trip, and Royal Caribbean doesn't accept "land-based health insurance plans." The company advises guests to consider travel insurance before setting sail. Mr Wasney and Ms Eberlein had neither health insurance nor travel insurance before they boarded their Caribbean cruise. So this is the dirty little secret all these cruise lines fail to tell you about. G-D forbid you get sick and do not have health insurance, this is a profit maker for all these cruise lines. It happened to us on the Regent 7 Seas Explorer. We paid $1900 for Trip Insurance. I got COVID the last two days and was charged $4300! It was outrageous. It took 4 months for me to get back our money, but we did. The advertised gourmet meals never happened. The food was good, but it was misrepresented on the menus; 12 oz steaks were more like 8 oz steaks. I would never, ever go back on any Regent 7 Seas cruise.

This luxury cruise is perfect for Aston Martin, F1 fans

Aston martin and f1 take to the seas.

The Aston Martin nameplate evokes images of style, sophistication, and performance. From the legendary DB5 to today’s Vantage, the company’s vehicles have a combination of muscle and verve that’s hard to match. Sultry bodywork and roaring powerplants make a scene, whether on the road or track.

The Spotlight Voyage: F1 dreams on the Mediterranean

• Delve into F1’s fascinating world on the Spotlight Voyage

Similarly, Formula 1 inspires passion and excitement like few sports can. Racecars on the leading edge of tech compete on storied circuits, requiring lightning-quick reflexes from the world’s best drivers. Each race brings tension and drama, as drivers and machines explore the limits of performance. 

For those with a zeal for both, Regent Seven Seas Cruises offers the Spotlight Voyage. Offering an immersive experience into the world of the Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team and the road car brand, the cruise sets sail on the Mediterranean in July 2025. Let’s take a closer look at this once-in-a-lifetime cruise.

• Heineken and Formula 1: An unstoppable partnership at the Miami F1 Grand Prix
• F1 driver Michael Schumacher’s watch collection to be auctioned (and it’s great)
• You can buy the very first Lotus F1 car

As a Formula 1 fan, you want to know every detail of the tracks, cars , and drivers. That desire is even stronger when you follow a specific team, your heart rising and falling with every qualifying session or podium finish. When you live for F1 — and love Aston Martin — the Spotlight Voyage puts you in the driver’s seat on a cruise to remember. Here’s what it includes.

On July 22, 2025, Seven Seas Splendor sets sail on a 10-day voyage across the Mediterranean, with former F1 driver Pedro de la Rosa hosting and numerous Aston Martin Aramco F1 executives and engineers on board. Additionally, representatives from the Aston Martin road car division will be along for the ride, offering several workshops delving into design and innovation. That’s just the beginning.

Along the way, the ship will visit historic racing venues like Monaco, Monte Carlo, and Barcelona, Spain, with both brands collaborating for amazing experiences on and off the Seven Seas Splendor.  Not only that, but for the most passionate guests, Regent Seven Seas Cruises will offer multiday land programs before and after the cruise, with visits to storied car collections and historic racetracks. Part of that includes the opportunity to attend an Aston Martin Aramco Race Experience at the Hungarian GP once the cruise concludes.

Delve into F1’s fascinating world on the Spotlight Voyage

Though traveling on a luxury ocean liner is wonderful itself, the Spotlight Voyage is about peeking behind the curtain of the Aston Martin Aramco F1 Team and the historic British brand. In between curated meals and Mediterranean sunsets, you’ll live as if a member of the team, as Pedro de la Rosa guides you through an intriguing world.

On board, you can get up close with a full-size replica of an Aston Martin Aramco F1 car. Its carbon monocoque and flowing wings look like something out of a sci-fi movie. After taking that in, an Aston Martin simulator awaits, letting you test yourself on the same circuits as the pros.

Then, experience F1 from the inside, with masterclasses, workshops, and panel discussions by members of the Aston Martin Aramco team. When it’s over, you’ll have a new perspective on Formula 1. Cap the day at a deck party with “Race Day” themed cocktails and dishes. 

Pedro de la Rosa shared his excitement about the voyage, saying, “I am thrilled to host this exclusive Spotlight Voyage aboard with our friends at Regent and even more excited to be sailing from my hometown of Barcelona… I’ve spent over three decades pursuing my passion for racing in every corner of the globe, and I can’t wait to share this passion and my unique experiences with both Regent and Aston Martin Aramco fans while cruising the Mediterranean on this special voyage.”

Tickets for the Spotlight Voyage start at $8,449 per guest. Attending some shoreside events brings an additional cost, and capacity is limited. For more info, visit the Regent Seven Seas Cruises website and book tickets for this unreal excursion.

When you’re a devoted Formula 1 fan and love Aston Martin, attending races only goes so far. When you want to learn the inner workings of the Aston Martin Aramco team, and more about the British marque, the Spotlight Voyage is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Spanning gorgeous locales and exploring Grand Prix history, the trip will leave you an F1 insider and refreshed from luxurious settings. So book that ticket, mash the throttle, and get ready for a racing-fueled adventure.

With hundreds of millions of dollars at stake for F1 teams each season, how do you become a Formula 1 driver? You have to be at least 18, according to the FIA F1 Rules and Regulations, but there is no upper age limit for F1 drivers. However, if it were easy, just showing up to apply for the job, F1 teams would be deluged with applications. But it's not easy at all. For an F1 team to invest in you and trust you with cars that have engines worth more than $10 million, there's much more to it. Let's take a look. How does someone become an F1 driver?

Even before F1's recent popularity growth spurt in the U.S., F1 has long been considered the motorsports summit. Not every kid who buckles in to ride around a go-kart track is inspired to make it their life's work, but a surprisingly high number of F1 driver interviews start with stories of early prowess in organized kart racing. I've never heard of an F1 driver deciding in their late teens to start training for a seat in a Formula 1 race car.

F1 racing is bound by strict rules from the FIA that set a minimum limit on how much a Formula 1 car weighs. Before each racing season, three volumes of FIA F1 Regulations set the parameters for technical, sporting, and financial operations for F1 teams, including the drivers and cars.

The minimum weight for F1 cars will change starting with the 2026 season (more on that below in this article), but for the F1 2024 and 2025 schedules, the official minimum weight for an F1 car is 798 kilograms (1,759.29 pounds). Read on to learn why the regulations list a minimum weight, not a maximum. Why F1 car weight matters

From season to season, the ten Formula 1 racing teams often switch sponsors and suppliers and sometimes even change their names. Some fans have wondered why Renault has no F1 team, but the team is still there but rebranded. Since 2021, Renault has been using the Alpine brand name. Additionally, for the 2024 F1 season, due to sponsorship changes, the official name is BWT Alpine F1 Team. Read on for more about Renault's team changes, the reasons behind the changes, and how the team has fared. Why a Renault F1 team matters: History

Renault has been part of Formula 1 racing since 1977, at various times as a constructor, engine supplier for other teams, and as an F1 racing team owner. Renault engines powered at least 160 Grand Prix winners during its history with the sport.

Master contact list?

I recall there is a master contacts list, with emails and phone numbers for various Regent departments, including ship phone numbers and the emergency air phone number.  I cannot find it. Can anyone point me to it or to a topic on this board that includes it (I did search, but was unsuccessful). Thanks in advance!

Ship to shore phone

By Lonedaddy , September 4, 2022 in Regent Seven Seas Cruises

Recommended Posts

How does the ship to shore phone work.  I see we are allowed some free call time.  Is it from the room or do you have to go to the reception desk?

From the room. 

You should warn whoever you are calling since the caller id comes up with a totally unidentifiable phone number.  When I tried it to call my children they let it roll over rather than answering until I worked out a time to call by email.

We have quite a few hours of the ship-to-shore phone service (Platinum) and find it to be more solid than VOIP service from AT&T through the ship's WIFI.  The WIFI-calling works for in-bound calls and then we return the call, if necessary, using the STS.  It was nice to have the hours of STS last week when, the day before we docked in Amsterdam to fly home, Lufthansa canceled our AMS-FRA flight which was to connect with United home to Washington.  Spent more than an hour on the phone to get through to, and explore options with, LH...they were useless and would only offer flying us home that day in coach and no solution for the next day in business.  Then called United and received much better service: got their flight the next day AMS-ORD followed by ORD-IAD, in business and first class respectively.  Had to spend a night at the Schiphol Airport Hilton which I'll be going after LH to cover since the EU passenger rights laws are very good.  Anyway, I used about a third of our STS phone time rewickering the trip home.

16 hours ago, Portolan said: more solid than VOIP service from AT&T through the ship's WIFI.

Is Wi-Fi calling onboard at least useable?  I read so much about the poor quality of Regent's internet service.

We used to use Comcast's app to make free calls back to the US from Europe using cell data or Wi-Fi until it was discontinued.  We've also used WhatsApp and Signal onboard other cruise lines with excellent results. Hope those two apps will at least function onboard Regent.

I don't generally make phone calls on a cruise, but the few times I have, the WiFi calling has worked just fine. Depends where your ship is.  When we were in the Arctic Circle in June the wifi would drop off or get very weak, but other than those occasions the Wifi calling worked.

Thank you...  I don't recall ever making more than one call on a cruise...usually we make none.  However, it's good to know it can be done if necessary.

Our WIFI calling through AT&T has worked pretty well when on-board.  If you don't get a good connection, disconnect and call again to (probably) change the routing which may/should/could improve the connection.  Voice only, of course.  Video calling like Face Time would likely disappoint.

The best Alaska cruises for every type of traveler

MSN has partnered with The Points Guy for our coverage of credit card products. MSN and The Points Guy may receive a commission from card issuers.

Even with a season that only runs from April through October, there are some 40 big ships and dozens of small ships cruising Alaska , making it one of the most popular cruise destinations in the world after the Caribbean and Europe. The best Alaska cruises range from off-the-beaten-path voyages on vessels carrying fewer than 100 passengers to weeklong jaunts through the Inside Passage aboard megaships that hold thousands.

The itinerary choices are numerous in Alaska. Some ships stick to tried-and-true ports, sailing through Southeast Alaska and into western Canada. Others wander deeper along the Alaska coastline to places such as the Kenai Peninsula, north to Nome and Barrow and even deep into the Bering Sea.

Some trips hit multiple national parks; others dive into Alaska culture, allowing guests to learn the stories told by totem poles or hear about “the big one” from a fisherman at a dive bar.

It can be hard to figure out which ship will deliver your idea of a “bucket list” experience in The Last Frontier. A lot comes down to your travel style, preferences and budget. Some travelers demand luxury, while others don’t mind going less fancy if it means close encounters with bears and other creatures in the wilderness. Some look for romance, while others want to introduce the kids or grandkids to glaciers and eagles, gold panning and sled dogs.

The good news is there’s a ship in Alaska for you no matter your taste or style. Here’s a beginner’s guide to the best Alaska cruises to help you narrow down your choices.

Best for megaresort fans

Norwegian Cruise Line and Royal Caribbean both sail some of their largest ships in Alaska. They are floating megaresorts, carrying thousands, and are big on amenities, glitz and a certain amount of glamor — think flashy casinos, Broadway shows, lavish spas. Dining and drinking venues number in the dozens, while amusement park features thrill the kids and adrenaline-seekers.

Norwegian Encore

On Norwegian Encore, you can race along a go-kart racetrack, compete in outdoor laser tag and zoom down slides at the water park while you traverse Alaska’s Inside Passage. The ship sails seven-night cruises from Seattle, visiting Skagway, Juneau and Ketchikan in Alaska, as well as Victoria, British Columbia, and Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve .

Ovation of the Seas

On Royal Caribbean’s Quantum-class ships, you can order a drink from a robotic bartender, try simulated skydiving or surfing experiences and take a ride in a glass capsule that travels high above your ship on a mechanical arm — a weird and wonderful way to see the Alaska scenery.

Ovation of the Seas sails round-trip from Seattle on seven-night cruises, but the exact itinerary varies by week. The ship cruises Endicott Arm for scenic views of Dawes Glacier and typically visits three Alaska ports and Victoria.

Best for land and sea adventures

You’ve traveled far to get to Alaska, and it would be a shame to miss inland sights such as Denali National Park and Preserve and the sight of Denali, North America’s largest peak — so big it’s often shrouded in clouds caused by its own weather system.

Market leaders Holland America Line and Princess Cruises both send a half-dozen ships to Alaska each year, and they have 75 and 55 years in the market, respectively.

They top the list in terms of cruises, as well as cruise tours, which combine time sailing with overnight stays on land. The companies operate their own lodges, rail cars and motorcoaches for exploration of Alaska’s interior and beyond. Many of the ships have permission to sail in Glacier Bay.

Choose from 10- to 17-night land tours that combine a standard weeklong cruise (sometimes half a cruise) with time spent exploring Alaska’s interior by bus, train or even plane.

Holland America will base six ships in Alaska in 2024, with tour offerings to Denali, Fairbanks and Anchorage.

However, it also offers nine- to 14-night cruise tours on Koningsdam that head into the Canadian Yukon, following the route of the Klondike Gold Rush from Alaska to northwestern Canada. Disembark your cruise ship in Skagway, then travel to Whitehorse and Dawson City in the Yukon before continuing on to Fairbanks (the gateway to Arctic Alaska), Denali National Park and Anchorage.

Sapphire Princess

Princess Cruises offers a cruise tour where you visit four national parks: Glacier Bay, Denali, the Kenai Fjords and America’s largest national park, Wrangell-St. Elias. The 15- and 17-night trips combine a seven-night cruise on Sapphire Princess from Vancouver to Whittier, Alaska, with another week or more on land, ending in Fairbanks or Anchorage.

Best for travelers on a budget

Older ships in Norwegian and Royal Caribbean’s fleets tend to offer more reduced prices than you’ll find on the lines’ larger and newer ships, based on the fact the older ships don’t have as many bells and whistles.

Since they have so many ships in the market, Holland America Line and Princess Cruises also tend to offer frequent sales — especially on their older tonnage. These ships have a loyal following and tend to have fewer families on board, which some couples find particularly appealing.

If you’re looking for other surefire ways to save, consider sailings in the area’s shoulder season. You’ll find better deals from April to early June and in September than you will in the height of summer.

Also, in Alaska, balcony cabins are highly desirable, with everyone seeking views of the wilderness, snow-capped peaks and glaciers. As those reserves get low, the prices tend to get higher. Bargain seekers should either book early for these accommodations or choose inside, outside or guarantee cabins (where you don’t pick your room location) to save more.

Radiance of the Seas

Royal Caribbean’s 20-year-old ship Radiance of the Seas mainly sails weeklong, one-way cruises between Vancouver and Seward, Alaska, with prices below $100 per person, per night, for inside and outside cabins on many departures.

However, its early-season May 2024 sailing from Seward to Vancouver is the cheapest Royal Caribbean Alaska cruise of the season. It starts at $368 per person for an inside cabin.

Grand Princess and Sapphire Princess

Princess Cruises has so many ships based in Alaska that you’re bound to find deals, especially on shoulder-season cruises. Both Grand and Sapphire Princess offer weeklong Alaska cruises in May 2024 starting from $548 per person for inside cabins. The itinerary starts in Vancouver and ends in Whittier, Alaska, with calls in Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway and scenic cruising in Glacier Bay and College Fjord.

Best for off-the-beaten-path travel

Want to see and deeply experience coastal Alaska, and don’t mind a mellower environment where lectures and impromptu guitar singalongs replace casinos and show productions? Consider lines such as UnCruise Adventures , Lindblad Expeditions and Alaskan Dream Cruises, all with ships that carry fewer than 100 passengers (and in the case of Alaskan Dream, even under 20 passengers).

On these small ships, captains have the flexibility to alter itineraries and linger if the naturalist onboard spots a pod of whales or bears digging for clams on a beach.

Small ships can go places bigger ships can’t, so itineraries stretch far beyond the traditional ports. You’ll visit more remote places such as Petersburg, a fishing town with strong Norwegian roots, and Wrangell, one of Alaska’s oldest communities. Some itineraries are conducted entirely in the wild, with no port calls at all.

UnCruise Adventures

UnCruise Adventures explores Southeast Alaska on seven-, 12- and 14-night itineraries. A day might start with a morning birding expedition, continue with a kayaking adventure and end with an evening campfire ashore. You might visit LeConte and Baird Glaciers (where the big ships don’t go), plus UnCruise has the only permits for hiking and biking adventures on Chichagof Island.

Lindblad Expeditions

Lindblad Expeditions frequents off-the-beaten-path destinations in both Alaska and British Columbia, with itineraries ranging from six to 15 nights.

Guests might explore the small fishing town of Petersburg or discover native petroglyphs on the beaches of Wrangell Island in Alaska, or search for grizzly bears in Canada’s Great Bear Rainforest. Lindblad has special permits to bring passengers into the wilderness of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve and the Tongass National Forest, beyond what the big ships can offer.

Alaskan Dream Cruises

Alaskan-owned Alaskan Dream Cruises’ ships carry 12 to 76 passengers to remote Native villages that rarely see visitors, with plenty of time for wildlife viewing far from the cruise ship crowds. Itineraries range from five to nine nights, from departure ports such as Sitka, Ketchikan and Juneau.

Best for families

If you’re traveling with your kids or grandkids in Alaska and want an activity- and entertainment-packed experience, target the newest and biggest ships of Royal Caribbean, Norwegian, Carnival and especially Disney Cruise Line. All have excellent camp-like activity programs for kids, plus eye-popping amusement attractions.

Disney Wonder

On Disney ships, Goofy might make an appearance as you admire soaring eagles, blue icebergs and glaciers. The extensive children’s program, entertainment and such activities as water slides and play areas deliver what you would expect from the purveyor of dreams. Bonus: Cabins are designed with families in mind and include split bathrooms (one with a toilet and sink, the other with a shower/tub combo and sink).

Discovery Princess

While lacking in whiz-bang attractions, Princess Cruises is another good choice, both for its children’s and teens program, complete with spacious facilities, and for such programming as bringing sled dogs on board, which is a hit with young passengers. The line’s newest ship, Discovery Princess, sails round trip from Seattle, a convenient U.S. home port for families to fly or drive to.

Carnival Spirit

Water slides, a partnership with Dr. Seuss and three hangouts for kids and teens make Carnival Cruise Line’s Carnival Spirit a great bet for families in Alaska.

The ship’s huge array of included quick eats — pizza, tacos, Guy Fieri’s burgers and unlimited soft serve ice cream — and casual atmosphere take the stress out of dining with the family. The ship sails round trip from Seattle on seven-night itineraries that call in Skagway, Juneau, Ketchikan and Victoria, with scenic cruising in Tracy Arm Fjord.

Best for luxury lovers

If you envision sipping Champagne as you watch a glacier thunderously calve into the sea, consider booking one of the all-inclusive luxury cruise lines in Alaska: Seabourn , Regent Seven Seas Cruises or Silversea .

All these lines include ships that are experts at delivering gourmet cuisine and the other finer things in life in intimate, cushy floating environments. Additionally, all the lines are big on featuring lectures by experts, which provides passengers with a deeper insight into Alaska.

Itineraries tend to include the popular ports and beyond. You might, for instance, visit Wrangell and Prince Rupert, a port city in Canada, and linger in places such as the Misty Fjords and Prince William Sound. Seven- to 14-night sailings embark from ports such as Vancouver, Seward and Juneau.

Seven Seas Explorer

Regent’s 750-passenger Seven Seas Explorer is an all-suite ship offering guests in Alaska multiple gourmet onboard restaurants, all-inclusive beverages, free airfare and included gratuities. Many shore excursions are complimentary. Enjoy little luxuries, like an afternoon in the thermal suite of the two-story spa-and-fitness center, or really splurge out by booking the Regent Suite, the most lavish suite you’ll find at sea.

Seabourn Odyssey

The 450-passenger Seabourn Odyssey boasts an onboard expedition team and does a posh version of expedition cruising in Alaska, using inflatable Zodiac craft and kayaks.

Seabourn calls its program Ventures by Seabourn. Experts onboard these sailings include naturalists, biologists and other scientists who are members of the expedition team. Once guests finish communing with nature, they can indulge in complimentary Champagne and caviar on board or relish a meal created by famed chef, Thomas Keller.

Best for solo travelers

Solo travelers don’t always have to pay double to cruise Alaska on their own. Several ships feature cabins designed and priced for one. Single cruisers should also note that luxury lines Silversea and Seabourn, while not cheap, do a great job of taking care of single cruisers, hosting them at dinner and providing easy opportunities to meet and mingle with other travelers.

Norwegian Bliss

The ships in Norwegian Cruise Line’s Breakaway and Getaway classes all have cozy studio cabins designed and priced for one person. Additionally, they’re located in a complex where a private lounge encourages mingling. Norwegian Bliss offers 82 solo rooms on its round-trip Seattle cruises that visit Dawes Glacier, Sitka and Icy Strait Point.

Quantum of the Seas

Royal Caribbean’s studio staterooms, on its Quantum-class ships in Alaska, give solo travelers the benefits of both decent space and balconies.

On Quantum of the Seas, choose a 101-square-foot inside cabin or a 119-square-foot ocean-view room with a 55-square-foot balcony. Either way, you get a full-size bed and plenty of space for one person. The ship sails a similar weeklong itinerary to sister ship Ovation of the Seas, round-trip from Seattle with scenic sailing along Endicott Arm.

Holland America offers ocean-view accommodations for one in Alaska only on Koningsdam. Measuring 127 to 172 square feet, these rooms come with a full-size bed and a picture window.

Koningsdam sails round trip from Vancouver to Juneau, Skagway and Ketchikan, with scenic cruising in Tracy Arm and Glacier Bay. Its cruises can be combined into nine- to 14-night cruise tours to the Yukon and Denali.
