Pick Your Alaska: Five Ways To Sail North in 2028 🚢
Calving ice. Breaching whales. Gold Rush streets and totem poles under skies that barely go dark. With Virgin Voyages there’s an Alaska for every Sailor.
Five itineraries, all through the Inside Passage:
• The bucket-lister, 10 nights, Vancouver to Seattle (May 1–11): Season opener. Juneau with Mendenhall Glacier a short hop from the dock, Skagway, Icy Strait Point for whales and the region’s biggest zipline, Ketchikan’s totem poles, and a full day at Hubbard Glacier
• The one-week wonder, 7 nights, Seattle roundtrip (14 sailings): Ketchikan and Creek Street, Sitka for sea otters and Russian-American history, a full day in Endicott Arm to Dawes Glacier, then Victoria for gardens and afternoon tea
• The completist, 12 nights, Seattle roundtrip (July 13–25): Six ports, including Ketchikan, Sitka, Icy Strait Point, Haines for bald eagles and Tlingit culture, a longer call in Juneau, and Skagway. Plus a full day at Hubbard Glacier
• The glacier chaser, 9 nights, Seattle roundtrip (July 25–Aug 3): Extra sea days and a slow, unhurried day at Hubbard Glacier, with Sitka wildlife and Haines along the way
• The last-call Sailor, 7 nights, Seattle to Vancouver (departs Sept 7): Ketchikan, Sitka, Endicott Arm & Dawes Glacier and Victoria, finishing one-way in Vancouver
Brilliant Lady was made with Alaska in mind. Deck daybeds come with blankets for glacier-gazing. Balconies come with red hammocks. Alaska dishes are marked right on the menu, built on local ingredients and recipes. And there’s an Alaska-only Happenings cast starring a lumberjack and a naturalist. Way more show than lecture.
Shore Things for everyone: Essential, Elevated with a few extras, or Exclusive experiences you’ll only find with us. It’s kid-free, so the loudest thing on deck will be a calving glacier.
Let’s find you your perfect Alaskan itinerary!
