    Frequently Asked Questions
    Will they cancel the Juneau Helicopter Glacier Sightseeing Excursion in Alaska if it is raining?
    The Juneau Helicopter Icefield Excursion operates rain or shine, within safety guidelines. The weather you are experiencing at the cruise pier can be completely different than the weather at the helipad or up on the glacier. Your local helicopter excursion guide is in constant contact with the helipad and crew on the glacier.
    Can I request a front-row seat in the helicopter?
    Unfortunately, seating is based on balancing the weight of all the guests, and therefore specific seats cannot be requested/promised.
    Do I need any special clothing on the glacier?
    When the wind blows across the large frozen lake that is a glacier, air temperature definitely goes down. Jackets and gloves are strongly recommended. Shoes need to have low/no heel and traction!
    Will I be able to get good pictures of the ice if it is not sunny?
    Actually, you will get better photos as the sun causes glare off the ice which can wash out the different colors of the ice in your photos.
    Do I need to take my passport with me on the Juneau Helicopter Icefield Flightseeing Excursion to show with my Electronic Shore Excursion Ticket?
    No, it is not necessary to take along your passport unless noted by your cruise line or listed in the Restrictions or Notes tab for the excursion. Your local operator has your booking noted. Please arrive with a printed copy of your eticket or digital copy if applicable.

The helicopter ride was smooth and we felt confident with the pilot. The views were stunning! We had the opportunity to stop to look closer at the Lemon glacier and it was soo beautiful! I didn´t take any pictures because I was so mesmerized by the view I actually forgot. So now I have an excuse to go back and do it again. 100% recommendable!

Second time in Alaska and finally save enough money for this excursion. I have to say that your prices are way more reasonable than the ones on the ship, someone told us not to book outside the cruise but we decided to give it a chance. Same quality tour (if not even better) for a lower price, will definitely book through you in the future! This experience was worth every dime.
