So far I've booked all our shore excursions directly (not through NCL). I just booked our June, 2020 whale adventure (20 person boat) with https://icystraitwhaleadventures.com/tour/whale-adventure/.

Thanks everyone for the thoughts .....going to stick with the Haven 2 Bdrm for this cruise.
Not being a regular cruiser I find it rather amazing that NCL does not show the room layout for one of their most expensive suites - Haven DOS. Rather lazy on their part.
After watching a few customer video's yesterday, I have feeling that their website "footprint " estimates for Haven DOs are for perhaps another ship - the balcony for instance is noted as "roughly" 567 sq. ft. My best guess is that the balcony is 200 sq. ft... (I plan to send a note to NCL)....
Thanks again

Currently have a Haven 2-BDRM booked on Jewel (Alaska)... 2 x parents + 2 adult children (girls). I'm having second thoughts.. thinking the DOS might be a better choice for 4 of us. Looking for comparative opinions!!
Questions:
DOS:
- Does anyone have a layout of the Jewel DOS ? (I cannot find one anywhere)
- Is there a closet for the guests sleeping in the living room?
- How big is the living room bed?
- I assume the staff does a turn down service each evening?
2-BDRM
- Is there a closet in the 2nd bedroo
- It appears that there are two beds (one high & one low) in bedroom?
- I assume the staff does a turn down service each evening?
Thanks

Not a regular cruiser like many on this board. We'll likely only do the Alaskan trip once ....booked in early June, 2020 - Seward to Vancouver. We have a 2 bedroom Haven suite on the Jewel. Given that we don't cruise much and this is one of our bucket list trips... we just booked the Haven - more or less a "no regret" decision - hopefully NCL will show us why the Haven is worth the extra cash. Jewel is a smaller ship (we wanted that) and it sounds like it has some private areas for kicking back and relaxing .. hopefully fall deep into a great book. While we like to swim the Haven pool looks a little small (more like a lap or big jacuzzi)

Ship departs June 1, 2020 from Seward to Vancouver ( 9:00 pm)
Taking the train from Anchorage to Seward (June 1) and arriving at 11:00 am. Plan to take the ORCA Cruise from 1pm- 5pm. Would like to get rid of our bags before the ORCA cruise.
- Is it possible to check our bags at the ship terminal (or with NCL) after arriving by train?
- What is the earliest you can board the NCL Jewel?

Thanks for the replies!!

1st time NCL cruiser. Booked on NCL Jewel from Seward to Vancouver - June 2020. Have a Haven 2 bedroom suite. Somehow I missed the detail that Jewel class ships do not have a private restaurant or private bar.
- I've read somewhere that instead of a private restaurant, "Jewel" Haven guests have the option to eat breakfast and lunch in one of the restaurants not open to other ship guests. Is this correct ?
- Is the food served in the Haven restaurant or the Jewel alternative better in some way that other restaurants on the ship?
- for Dinner (in the absence of a private restaurant) does NCL offer anything special for Jewel class Haven guests?
