In an April 30th statement on gov.alaska.gov Alaska Governor Dunleavy stated, “Today I took immediate action to end the COVID-19 disaster declaration. Alaska is in the recovery phase where an emergency declaration is no longer necessary. It is important our focus remains on getting Alaska’s economy back on track and welcoming summer tourism throughout our great state. I am confident in our state’s future as we move forward.” 

The private event will be a memorable send-off for guests including customized welcome back gift boxes of locally made Alaskan products by Juneau Food Tours and a personal send-off from UnCruise Adventures CEO. The event will also be streamed live on the UnCruise Adventures Facebook page.

Don Bucolo, or “DB”, loves everything about cruising- the ocean, the food, and the atmosphere. While he may be obsessed with doing extensive amounts of research on ships and all elements of a cruise, Don enjoys sharing his new found knowledge with fellow cruisers. When he is not sailing the high seas, he does whatever his wife tells him to do-it only took 10 years to realize this.
