Truth About Alaska Cruise Safety - S3E10

from Banter Onboard · host Cruising Canucks

Alaska is one of the most breathtaking cruise destinations on the planet — and we love it. But after digging into the science behind the August 2025 Tracy Arm event, where a 64-million cubic metre landslide sent a wave nearly 500 metres up a fjord wall, we realized this story never got the attention it deserved. No passengers were harmed — but only because no boats were in the fjord that morning. Researchers have since identified this as the second-highest tsunami runup ever recorded, and yet the cruise industry response was quiet and slow. In this live show, Jill and Jerry walk through what the science actually says about natural hazard risks in Alaska — from landslide tsunamis to glacial outburst floods threatening shore excursions — and have an honest conversation about what informed cruisers deserve to know before they book that Alaska voyage.Hi, we are Jill and Jerry, and we invite you to subscribe to our channel.We have cruised on ten different cruise lines for over twenty years now, and we look forward to sharing our experiences with you.We will be posting Cruise VLOGS, videos that cover ship reviews, cabin tours, ship tours, and all of the fun in between!🔥We hope you Subscribe for more cruise adventures!! ⭐️Join our Socials at:➡️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/CruisingCanucks➡️ Instagram: @cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/cruisingcanucks➡️ Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/TheCruisingCanucks/➡️ BlueSky: https://bsky.app/profile/cruisingcanucks.bsky.social➡️ Our WEBSITE at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.com➡️ Check out our Merchandise at: https://www.cruisingcanucks.ca/gear/➡️ Join our EMAIL list at: https://cruisingcanucks.ck.page/dd2b4b8b3fWe can be reached at:Cruising Canucks • P.O.
