We were on the Infinity from Seattle last year and it did not travel the inside passage at all. I am talking about the real "Inside Passage" not that short piece north of Prince Rupert going into Ketchikan. In fact of course the Mercury does that also on your booked cruise.
However it did Sitka last year and this year it does not. That is where they gain the time to do the Inside on the new itinerary.

So your options are change to the Infinity a M class ship, bigger and newer (my favorite ship actually) or change your time on the Mercury to when it does do the Passage. I can tell you for sure the passage is worth the trip. I can also tell you that Sitka is a very interesting spot and Victoria is a cool place to visit also if you have never been there although the time will be limited

Help any ??
