Packing for an Alaska cruise? After two Alaska cruises, I learned that some things I thought I needed barely got used, while a few simple items were absolutely worth the suitcase space. If you're wondering what to pack for Alaska, I'm sharing what I actually used, what I overpacked, and what I'd make room for next time. From dress clothes and shoes to rain gear, waterproof shoes, warm layers, hand warmers, and binoculars, these are the Alaska cruise packing lessons I learned from actually doing it. Whether you're building your first Alaska cruise packing list or trying to cut down on overpacking, I hope this helps you figure out what deserves space in your suitcase and what you might be able to leave behind.
