I found that out. With some help from the lady on the chat line (Maria, who is excellent I must say), we got us all linked and reservations were made - with one exception. Le Petit Chef was completely sold out! At least that's what the website said for parties of 8. Maybe we need to try parties of 4? Anyway, all is working out quite well, thanks to everyone's help here.

Great advice. I'll definitely give that a try. Now the issue is whether we'll be able to get reservations on the dates we want in the specialty dining venues.... Guess we just wait and see.

Thank everyone for your help here. Much appreciated.

I have urged them to do so. I have.

So I should be able to go to the Concierge and tell him I want to be seated at a table for 4 or 8 at Toscana, or Le Petit Chef, or Murano? Then my guests just show up and we're all seated?

Are we talking about just the MDR, or all venues? Might we already be "linked" since we are all sitting together at Murano on the first night?

Would this "linking" apply to every dining venue? We all booked Murano on the first night. I paid for it with my shipboard credits (and everyone else paid me back). Did this "link" our reservations? I don't think there's a way to reserve any other meals before boarding. Am I right? I'll likely be having lunch in the MDR (as one of the benefits of having a Concierge Room). Think I'll be able to handle all these reservations for everyone? Or will I need to drag the others around to the specialty dining restaurants with me to be sure we are all seated together at the same times and dates? Is there a way to pay more (other than moving to a suite with a butler) and not have all this hassle?

Anytime dining.

We are booked on the Eclipse (September 8 sailing) along with six friends. We have decided where and when we wish to eat, sometimes together and other times in different groups of 4 (and then at different restaurants). My wife and I have booked concierge class; the others are in veranda staterooms. What is the best, quickest, least hassle way for us to manage all of these reservations? Can the concierge help?

Didn't think so. Guess we'll find out in April🙄.

We just booked this for April 14, 2025 (with the tour of Amsterdam and Bruge) and started a roll call. We booked one of the 4 suites on the Monarch Countess. I can't seem to find any reviews of these suites. Does anyone here have any thoughts? They are listed as "suites," but they are not overly large and I don't think they come with any special services (as do suites on most cruise lines). My wife is disappointed that they don't have bathtubs.

Or perhaps this one from 1957: "A white sport coat and a pink carnation I'm all dressed up for the dance"

That is GREAT news. Thank you!

We've got an "Azamazing" amount of onboard credits for a seven-day cruise. Can we use some of our OBC to buy a dining package for some friends who are also taking the same cruise?

Old topic, but new question. We've got an Azamazing amount of onboard credits for a short cruise. Can we use some of our OBC to buy a dining package for some friends who are also taking the same cruise?
