Anyone on the Wonder in Alaska right now? 2023 Merch pics please!

I was on the wonder in March they had a ton!

How was your trip? Did the wonder seem like it was still having vibration/ propellor issues?
I saw it mentioned on some of last years trip reports but nothing really since!

Oh yeah the ship was extremely shakey! Especially if we were moving fast! You eventually get use to it

Crikey! Do you think it made getting your land legs worse when getting off or about the same

I was on the Wonder in April and I agree - very shaky in some parts of the ship, particularly in Tiana's Place. I can't speak to how it affected me getting my land legs back after debarkation, as I always experience some degree of "mal de debarquement" syndrome. This time it took about a week for me to stop feeling like I was still on the boat.

ETA: I also fall in the precise demographic of people who are likely to suffer mal de debarquement symptoms - I'm a woman between the age of 30 and 60 and I have a history of chronic migraine, which has been linked to mal de debarquement in some studies. I haven't really met anyone else who experiences it to the degree that I do.

Pictures of the current Alaska merch can be seen in the Disney Cruise Alaska Q&A group on Facebook. The Navigators for the 2023 Alaska cruises are there as well.

Any chance someone can post that information here for those of us that don't use Facebook?

I'm in the same boat (pun intended) with age range + chronic migraines and get it a little also. Usually it only lasts a day or two, and I feel it most when laying down. Strangely I haven't felt it at all after my last two cruises (Wish, Fantasy) which honestly made me a little sad, I love the swaying!

It's funny, I don't get it nearly as bad when I'm laying down, but I get it when I'm sitting upright. I also had it when I got off the Fantasy in December of 2021, but we also had a nightmare travel situation after that trip and I had some sort of ear congestion that can't have helped.

How do you get added to this group? I have tried finding it on Facebook and can’t and I even had someone in another group put the link in a comment and it wouldn’t let me click on it

I copied this from the group. Hopefully this works for you.

Before anyone reports the Facebook link this is fine. The group is sponsored by another TA just for clarity's sake, but their site passes our filter test here so I'll leave it alone.

Ok. I’m sorry. I should of asked before. Didn’t think of it. Thank you. Just wanted to help out.

No no, I'm glad you did! We just get some side eye about Facebook around here because one of the rules is to not drive folks over to it, which usually is only an issue over on the meetup threads. Just trying to be proactive.

Do people still line up to get the Alaska merchandise?

We don't have any must haves so curious if Alaska merch sells out on each cruise or can we grab stuff after the first day?
