Yes, there’s a lot of interest in the disability angle. I’ve put this trip off every year between health issues and pandemic so I’m set on this year. It’s my 50th state so it’s a real bucket list item.
I will check it out. I’ve heard great things about Windstar. Mid-summer would be great, but that’s when they are really filling up ships. I need an accessible cabin so that makes it little harder.
Yeah, a lot of Alaskan cruises fill up a year in advance, so you may be better off starting to work on a 2024 trip instead. The accessibility angle could be a great one for pitching (so many pubs are looking for more inclusive travel experiences!), so maybe lean into that?
Yeah, my last Alaskan cruise was with Windstar (amazing, 1,000% recommend). I was in Alaska last Sept (not a cruise) ... it was cold and rainy, whereas when I was there in June/July a few years earlier it was crazy hot (like 95 degrees!). The weather there can be so unpredictable. I just wrote an article about it actually: https://www.rd.com/article/best-time-to-visit-alaska/
I'm excited to see your adventures on IG!!
Considering I cant get a commitment a few months in advance, I can’t imagine I’d get one a year in advance.
Which Alaska cruise are you going on in June? I’m also planning on covering one (haven’t confirmed yet).
Princess ... end of May into June. Same one?

I have a request into HAL for awhile, and am now also looking at Princess, but end of June, beginning of July. Also considering Sept.
Definitely a lot more passengers this year so less FAMs :(

So much fun travel planned! I'd love to hear your thoughts on Curacao - thinking it could be a great honeymoon destination!! Have a great week!
Curacao is a really beautiful and chill island ... I think a honeymoon there would be lovely! But also, check out Anguilla!
Thank you and will do!! So many islands to check out - it's overwhelming LOL!
You honestly can't go wrong ... all those islands are incredible!
