We cruise on the Sapphire 20th of July. Have tried to book dining with no success. Kept getting error try again later. Decided today to call and see if I could get through to Princess. Got someone in Customer Service and waited for half an hour. Then to be told we were able to only book for 7 out of the 14 days for the time we wished and it would cost us $300 per person to have thoes reservations. After saying that was unacceptable, he came back and said they would only charge for one person. Since when do we have to pay for a reservation in regular dining. I understand specialty dining. We are Elite and have sailed with Princess almost 50 weeks. Totally unaccceptable. Did not take his good deal. So frustrating. Dining is part of what makes our cruise!!
