Crown Princess Alaska cruise with flights from £1,799pp

Seven nights cruising from Vancouver to Anchorage with flights included for under £1,800pp is solid value for Alaska in peak season. You're getting the Inside Passage, Glacier Bay, and a proper shot at wildlife — bears, whales, the lot.

The deal

Crown Princess, 7 nights, Vancouver to Anchorage. Flights included. Sails May–September. Passes through Glacier Bay National Park and the Inside Passage. Wildlife viewing is the main event here.

Why we like it

First: flights are bundled in at £1,799pp, which saves you the hassle of booking separately and usually nets you better value than DIY. Second: Crown Princess is a proper ship — 3,000-odd passengers, so you're not squeezed in with 5,000 others, but you're not paying small-ship prices either. Third: May to September is genuinely the best window for Alaska; go earlier or later and you'll struggle with daylight and wildlife sightings.

The catch? All-inclusive this is not. Drinks, excursions (kayaking, helicopter tours, fishing), gratuities — they add up fast. And if you're not keen on organised shore days, a cruise might feel rigid. Also check what "flights included" actually covers — seat selection and baggage sometimes cost extra.

How to book

Head to Princess Cruises and search Crown Princess Alaska sailings for your preferred May–September date. The quoted price should reflect the flight inclusion, but confirm cabin type, any current discounts, and what's genuinely in the package before you commit.
