đWhy I love Cruising with you â Get your copy: https://amzn.to/4eSYv3R Bigger or smaller ships? Which is actually better for an Alaska cruise? I sailed Alaska on back-to-back cruises aboard two very different Royal Caribbean ships: the Quantum of the Seas, one of the largest and most modern ships in the region, and the Brilliance of the Seas, one of the smallest and most classic in the fleet, to finally answer this question. I wasnât expecting it, but the differences were much bigger than I thought. In this video, I cover everything you need to know before booking your Alaska cruise, from scenery and glacier access to onboard entertainment, crowd levels, and how each ship handles Alaska's unpredictable weather. By the end, you'll know which ship size is right for your trip and avoid cruise mistakes. đą What's covered in this video: âą Big ship vs small ship: the Alaska scenery experience âą Itineraries and port access â this one surprised me âą Onboard entertainment and dining on each ship âą Crowd levels and atmosphere âą Weather, comfort, and indoor spaces âą My honest final verdict This video is part of my Alaska Cruise series â make sure you subscribe so you don't miss the upcoming port guides and cruise tips!
