The myth vs the reality

Alaska looks expensive until you account for current value combos. You will see up to 40 percent off select sailings, bonus onboard credit, and add-ons like $30 per night onboard credit on lines that also offer packages with Wi-Fi, drinks, and crew appreciation. That bundle reduces surprise costs and keeps the experience high while you chase glaciers and whales.

Smart planning for the Last Frontier

Sail in May or September for great wildlife and calmer pricing. Look for itineraries that include Glacier Bay or Hubbard Glacier because the scenic cruising is unreal. Use your onboard credit for flightseeing, whale watching, or the post-adventure spa session you will absolutely want after all that fresh air.
