I have tried to read through this sub and others but I am still torn between the ships, and what to prefer while taking my Parents and In-laws on a 1 way from Vancouver to Alaska 7 day trip(Or do a RT for Bliss) . I wasnt able to get the HAL but these are the ones i am debating on, if anyone who has done these can give me a brief on how to make the selection. We are looking to book Balconies for August.

Something about my family - 3 couples (2 sets of parents close to 60) - We like Casino, music and dance, theatre styled entertainment , and good "Vegan/Vegetarian" food.

Things that I have researched on -

1. Port timing - Looks similar for all
2. NCL Jade does the Hubbard
3. Princess does Glacier bays
4. Excursions - I need to think more about these if i should purchase these from the carrier or find an outside vendor
5. Layering is a must
6. Dog sledging, Helicopter rides, Treks and food on ports

Things I need help in -

Onboard entertainment, services!

All advice is welcome!
