Balcony & Inside Rooms
Every cabin on the ship uses a "Medallion Class" wristband or wearable disc. This acts as your room key, automatically unlocking your door as you walk up to it. Beds can be pushed together or separated into twins. Power outlets are Standard US and European plugs, plus USB charging ports by the bed
Inside Cabins: Inside staterooms are surprisingly spacious. They include a large desk, a mini-fridge, a digital safe, and a TV. These rooms have a large walk-in closet or wardrobe area with plenty of hangers and shelves. The private bathroom has a shower with a detachable nozzle and refillable bath amenities.
Balcony Cabins: Balcony staterooms offer the exact same indoor bed and bathroom setup, but add floor-to-ceiling glass doors that open to your private outdoor deck. Your balcony includes two reclining chairs and a small table, making it the perfect spot to sip hot cocoa while cruising through the scenic fjords of Alaska.
