Dining discounts on T/A

On our last T/A we were offered nearly everyday a nice discount in the Speciality dining rooms. What has been anyones recent experience on crossings. Were you offered any discounts?

It depends. Murano, reluctant. Quisine, they have hijacked us on the elevator and taken us there instead of Blu. Made me an offer I couldn’t refuse, as they say.

It depends on the bookings, i guess.

There just was (maybe still is) a sale on packages. Check it out, its as good a deal as any discount onboard.

And if you get a package, the difference in 4 versus 3nights is $16! You’d go for $16 wouldn’t you?

Discounts are simply driven by supply/demand. When business in the alternative restaurants is very good, there will be fewer (and lower) discounts. If business is lousy, you might be able to snag 50% discounts. On our TA cruises it has been hit or miss...just like on most other itineraries. Keep in mind that if you purchase a dining package with a substantial number of meals...and do it during a 20% Off Sale.....you can get the cost per meal (in alternative restaurants) down to about $25....which is a decent discount in Qsine and Murano. On Board we have seldom seen Murano discounted by more than 30% (if at all) except on the first night. Discounts in Tuscan are very common (you can draw your own conclusion as to why).
