Can not answer your question about the lodge. Wifw and I on our last two ALaska cruises have tried the flightseeing (Ketchikan) and got rained out. We hope our third time is a charm this September.
What I've read it is not to be missed. Planning on booking our own.

I have been on many Alaska flights, with a glacier helicopter landing my top pick out of Juneau. I've been to Taku Lodge and while the flight is very very scenic, having a landing is way superior.

I always book independent.

THANKS TO ALL FOR YOUR COMMENTS. WE HAVE HEARD THAT YOU REALLY CAN'T APPRECIATE ALASKA UNTIL YOU SEE IT FROM THE AIR.

AT SOME POINT WE WILL BE DOING JUST THAT.
THANKS AGAIN
