Alaska30 Posted July 9, 2010 #1 Share Posted July 9, 2010 My husband and I are going to Alaska on the Royal this month. It is our first Princess cruise. I called the Princess 1-800 number to see if I could make reservations for our Anniversary Dinner at one of the specialty restaurants. I was told I had to wait until I got on board. Is that the only way to get reservations? Our Anniversary is the first night of the cruise and I would love to make certain we have reservations.

bhopal21 Posted July 9, 2010 #2 Share Posted July 9, 2010 Yes you have to wait until you are onboard. And the specialty restaurants are usually pretty quiet on the first evening. Mike:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtaylor04 Posted July 9, 2010 #3 Share Posted July 9, 2010 I don't think you will have any problems, but go book your reservation as soon as you get on the ship. Happy Sailing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul929207 Posted July 9, 2010 #4 Share Posted July 9, 2010 On your cabin phone will be a button labeled "DINE". Just push it and they will take your reservation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjkTX Posted July 9, 2010 #5 Share Posted July 9, 2010 We just returned from that cruise on the Royal - you'll enjoy it! We had dinner at the Steakhouse and had made reservations - good thing too or the other couple that was there might have taken our table :-) I don't think you'll have a problem even without reservations - especially the first night. But as others have said, call DINE or go up and make your reservations in person once you get on the ship. Enjoy your cruise - and Happy Anniversary!

Rare hcat Posted July 9, 2010 #8 Share Posted July 9, 2010 What are the extra charges for Sabatinis & the steak restaurant & does this include gratuities? . (new to Princess) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caribill Posted July 10, 2010 #9 Share Posted July 10, 2010 What are the extra charges for Sabatinis & the steak restaurant & does this include gratuities? . (new to Princess) $20 to $25 The waitstaff in the specialty restaurants are part of the tip pool that your daily hotel charge goes into, but many tip extra here because of the great service they receive.
