West Travel, Inc.
West Travel, which operates as Cruise West, offers scenic cruises along the US West Coast with a specialty in Pacific Northwest and Alaskan packages. The company runs its own fleet of about 10 "small" ships which hold between 78 and 148 passengers versus the 1,300 to 2,600 berths found on most cruise ships. Cruise West's small ships offer a more casual atmosphere, tailored schedule, and flexibility than traditional ships. The company also offers tours of Costa Rica and the Panama Canal, Asia, Antarctica, Galapagos, and British Columbia. Alaska tourism pioneer Chuck West founded the company in 1946 as Arctic Alaska Travel Service.
