Answer: Luggage will be transported separately from guests and delivered to your hotel room. As you arrive or depart each location along your Alaska cruisetour, the timing may not align with your check in and check out times and so you may arrive before your luggage does. Please plan to bring a small carry-on bag or piece of luggage that includes your travel documents, medication, and anything else you will need when you arrive on property. Bag checks are available for your carry-on so that you can enjoy each location, optional tours, and amenities for as long as you like.
Most guests will have the opportunity to have a bag sent ahead by using the Holland America Line Join Me program. For more information on Join Me, read the "Alaska Cruisetour Tips (PDF)" available on the FAQ homepage.
