When does Alaska start showing up in September 2026?

Alaska is available in 2609D, but the region is still limited at 451 sailings. The first practical unlock is 800 points.

What This Means

That is where Anthem of the Seas appears on a 7-night Southbound Alaska & Hubbard Glacier sailing. It is the first tier where Alaska is not just present, but usable as a real booking target. The 800 tier also includes a small number of Alaska sailings in the broader mix, though the best value still leans Mexico and Caribbean.

At 1,200 points, Alaska is still present but not the main story. The region becomes more useful at 2,000 and 3,000 points, where Alaska appears more often in the top-five lists and on stronger ships like Anthem and Quantum. But if the question is the first tier where Alaska becomes practical, the answer is 800 points.

For players specifically chasing Alaska, 800 is the entry point and 3,000 is the first tier where the region starts to feel more flexible.

Why It Matters

This page answers the simple question players ask first: how many points does it take before alaska even shows up?

Once it does show up, one of the better-looking options at that same level is Serenade Of The Seas for 7 Night Cabo Overnight, Catalina & Ensen.

That turns the page from a yes-or-no answer into something more useful: the first point level where the destination becomes a real bookable conversation.
