Small-Ship Operator UnCruise Adventures Meets the Demand for Close to Home Travel in 2020 and Beyond

Award-winning small-ship operator, UnCruise Adventures, is one of the first to resume sailing in 2020 for history-making departures in Alaska and the Pacific Northwest. After months of travel restrictions, UnCruise Adventures is one of the few cruise lines to provide options for pent-up travel demand. For those looking to get back into adventure, the line’s popular Alaska and Pacific Northwest departures highlight the best in domestic adventure travel.

“Part of our mission is to take people to places that will stay with them long after they’ve left, in ways they can feel good about and connect to,” states Dan Blanchard, owner, and CEO of UnCruise Adventures. “Our guests have shown they want more close-to-home travel options and we can open up that world for them.”

Travelers looking to make short-term booking plans can take advantage of a return to sail savings for all roundtrip Juneau to Juneau 2020 Alaska departures. The offer provides a savings of $400 per couple or $200 per person for solo travelers on new Alaska bookings through October 2020. Mention code RTS2020 when inquiring to book for last-minute post-lockdown adventure plans. The offer does not apply to the 2020 Pacific Northwest itineraries, setting sail August to October.

To respect the small local Alaskan communities, UnCruise Adventures will not include port calls for the summer season and will continue to focus on daily adventures in remote wilderness - hiking, bushwhacking, kayaking, paddle boarding, skiff excursions, and whale watching.

“Your 2020 summer vacation doesn’t need to be canceled, it may just take a few extra steps,” shares Blanchard, reflecting on the brand's return to travel. “We’ve taken the latest protective measures and remain vigilant of all health measures for the safety of our guests and crew.”

With a changing travel landscape, UnCruise Adventures' short-term bookings are a great option for domestic travelers looking to be in nature. 2021 will also see the launch of the first-ever 5-night itinerary available with UnCruise Adventures. The new itinerary provides an activity-packed adventure with fewer days away from home and-inclusive premier price starting at $2,995 per person.
