And then there's small ship versus large ship. My wife and I went on the Yorktown Clipper because we wanted low-key comfort, and scenery. We loved it, and would repeat that cruise exactly, anytime.We went back to Juneau a year later and were there when my in-laws came through on their first Alaska cruise. We toured their ship (Seven Seas Mariner) and had dinner aboard. A beautiful ship, and not at all my style, but it suited them, and they are now frequent cruisers. We're sailing on the Nantucket Clipper in two weeks, so you can see we like the small ships. There's a lot of choice, and the Internet is a HUGE help. I had a lot of fun watching webcams showing our destinations while planning our trip, and had a good feel for the weather we'd have.However you get there, you are going to love Alaska!--Bob
