This was our Anniversary cruise and this time we went with Alaskan Cruise Virgins. Our friends had been on other cruises but never to Alaska so when we mentioned that we were going to Alaska for our Anniversary they decided it would be a good time to come along and find out what all the hype was about. A good time was had by all.

We flew in the day of boarding - went with Princess EZ Air and had no problems with the flight or the pick up from Seattle Airport. We have found that if you keep checking the website the EZ Air package cannot be beat, we have done it several times and never had problems.

Picking the ship was easy - the Crown left one day prior to our anniversary so it was perfect for celebrating our anniversary on the actual day -May 24th.

The ship was totally sold out - so tons and tons of people, which did not prevent us from having a great time with our friends. Never had to wait in any lines and while it was crowded, we could still enjoy the ocean and the ship. The ship was in great shape and we loved our balcony. Read more
