Alaska Cruise question..should I cancel

Need some in put......<BR>have cruised Glacier Bay and College Fjord and the sights were beautiful.<BR>On the next cruise in May we will not be going to either. We will be cruising through Tracy Arm. My husband is now having a fit, saying that the sights will not be as beautiful. The last time we were on the Dawn Princess. This time we will be on the Pacific Princess, which is a much smaller ship. I thought that a smaller ship would be able to get a little closer to the sights.<BR>Are the sights any less spectacular? Must be honest...I am ready to just cancel this cruise, as he is complaining about the ship size and itnerary.<BR>Guess I just need to hear some good stuff about Tracey Arm and the Pacific Princess.<BR>Thanks

Here are some pictures of Tracy Arm and Sawyer Glacier:<BR><BR>http://home.gci.net/~rbtbrsrd2/html/tracyarm.html<BR><BR>http://home.attbi.com/~bobholio/tracyarm/TracyArm.html<BR>----------------<BR><BR>From my friends who have been there, they love it. It is different from Glacier Bay, but beautiful in her own way.<BR><BR>You are not going to find much information on the new Pacific Princess since she is yet to sail under &quot;Princess yet&quot;. I think she is currently sailing under P&amp;O (she spends half her year sailing under Princess and the other half under P&amp;O). She is a sister to Tahitian Princess and all reports about her sound wonderful. I would love to sail the new Pacific Princess to Alaska. I wouldn't cancel - sounds like a great trip.

I have been to Glacier Bay and Tracy Arm and feel Tracy Arm was better for viewing and equally spectacular.

Thank you all for taking the time to respond. <BR>After posting the original question I asked him if hhe wanted to cancel. Final payment is not due for another week. And we could change the air for a fee so at least I have given him some options.

Any thoughts about Hubbards Glacier and College Fjord? My other choice was Glacier Bay and Misty Fiord.
