About This Cruise
The 9 Night Alaska: Vancouver to Seattle is a 9-night one-way itinerary aboard Virgin Voyages Brilliant Lady. You board in Vancouver and disembark in Ketchikan, calling at 6 ports across 2 countries along the way.
In sequence the voyage takes in Canada (Vancouver) and Alaska (Juneau, Skagway, Hubbard Glacier and 3 more).
As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Vancouver and home from Ketchikan, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 3 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
