Not often do I write reviews. In most instances, I believe there is little that I can add that hasn't already been said many times. In this case I feel there are some nuances to Alaska on the Radiance that some might find helpful.
We have sailed numerous times on the Radiance and others in its class. The refurb is remarkable. It feels quite literally like a new ship. We had an absolute blast!
FOOD: If the Chef's Table package is available for under $150, do it! It starts off a bit awkward and stiff because you will likely be dining with strangers. The staff infuses quite a few ice breakers, and by the third course (and third glass of wine), our table was in fully engaged in polite but sparkling conversation. The food was well prepared, the wine pairings adequate to good, except for trying to convince us that Frangelico is an exceptional, high-end liqueur. Still a wonderful evening that if affordable, is worth doing a second time on-board.
