We set out on our Alaska cruise expecting a bucket list experience touring a glacier fjord by boat. Everything changed when the captain interrupted our plans to announce a medical evacuation, forcing the ship to divert course toward Juneau. This travel vlog captures the reality of dealing with a cruise ship emergency while at sea. We document the process of working with the United States Coast Guard to ensure the safety of a fellow passenger, showing that even the most carefully planned trips in Juneau Alaska can have unpredictable moments. ________________________ Affiliate links: → Shop our Cruise & Travel Essentials: https://a.co/d/0hljxCqJ WATCH NEXT: 🎥 Watch This BEFORE Packing for a Carnival Cruise: https://youtu.be/q_UZlvc93yQ ________________________ Subscribe for more travel updates from our adventures, and let us know in the comments if you have ever had your vacation plans interrupted by an emergency. ✅ Subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/ourmidlifevan ✅ Want updates in between videos follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ourmidlifevan We use Epidemic Sound, sign up for a 30-day free trial here: https://share.epidemicsound.com/4jo0md Clicking affiliate links helps support our channel as we may get some compensation.
