Hopes4 Posted September 14, 2012 #101 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Just back today and most, but not all of our requests were handled. We only had 4 and got 2. I still think it is worth doing. We did get the pillows we requested and the ones that stay cool...I loved them! Out of curiosity (and to see if there is a trend when others give feedback as well), what requests weren't fulfilled?

Nalagh Posted September 14, 2012 Author #102 Share Posted September 14, 2012 We're not sailing in a suite until January.Do I need to wait to within 55 days to book spa passes? Thanks, Judy I do not know if you can book spa passes per say, but you might ask them to add a note that you would like the concierge to get you one upon boarding. You can however book treatments ahead of time now 55 days out. Happy planning! Cherie BTW, WE HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL JAN. AS WELL.:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julma Posted September 14, 2012 #103 Share Posted September 14, 2012 Pillows and extra towels were filled. Emptying the fridge and an extension cord were not. I think the extra towel request was filled. We were in a Family Suite and there was only two of us, so maybe there is always a lot of towels in that category. I did ask to pre-buy the spa pass, but was told I couldn't that I should get it on the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reefgirl Posted September 14, 2012 #105 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I have a question about the Suite Selection letter I received by email. Should I make the selections I want and FAX it back, or just let the butler know our preference when we get on board? And I called to ask about having a bucket of beer in the room and the person at the concierge desk wasn't sure if they could do that and that they would call me back, but they never did. It's not that big of a deal, but my husband would be tickled to see that there, waiting for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYGirl1002 Posted September 15, 2012 #110 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I got an email yesterday informing me of the telephone number and telling me what I can book ahead of time. I'm very impressed with NCL so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonnie voyage Posted September 15, 2012 #111 Share Posted September 15, 2012 We received our e-mail yesterday too. Besides booking specialty dining, we would be interested in spa passes. Not sure what else we'd want or need, but it was a treat to see the e-mail notification! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOWTYD Posted September 17, 2012 #113 Share Posted September 17, 2012 (edited) Did anyone book the Chef's Table in advance or is that first come first serve ressie on board? I tried to look this up and couldn't find a yes or no answer. ( unless I didn't t look hard enough!;)) Edit: Never mind, I just saw this on post 46. 2nd question: Does anyone know if non suite guest can prebook the Chef's Table? Thanks Edited September 17, 2012 by LOWTYD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( unless I didn't t look hard enough!;)) you can request to be considered with the pre cruise concierge, and they will pass along your request to the on board concierge, but it is a random selection I have been told. My advice would be to call ahead and get your request in, but then check in with the concierge first thing when you board to make sure they have it.

rvsullivan Posted September 17, 2012 #116 Share Posted September 17, 2012 There is a difference between the Chef's Table and dinner with the Captain. I just called NCL and no one including suites can pre book Chef's Table, it is limited to 12 and is first come first served. Captains table is somewhat random and you can ask to be considered. It should be sort of random, but I have been told that Villa's can pretty much get an invite if they wish, others can apply and see what happens.

That is true it can not be pre-booked, but you can write a note on your requests that you want the Chef's table and ask her or him to book it onboard asap. It is first come first serve, and like everything else the concierge can book it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NayRN Posted September 17, 2012 #118 Share Posted September 17, 2012 :D We are very happy that this service is there even if we are not in a Haven suite this time. We did not get a letter, hear about it from our PC, or know from prior service. We found a CC thread that said that the concierge desk had a number, so I called to ask if was just haven guests or was it all suites. I was told ALL full suite guests (meaning no mini suites) were included. What does pre-cruise concierge service offer? 1. The name of our concierge at sea...Yea we have Monica on the Star next week! 2. Pillow service planned ahead...means no feathers in the room for me when I enter! 3. Beer on ice for my DH when he gets in the room. (not gonna happen otherwise) 4. All of the stuff in the fridge will be taken out so to make room for what I want. 5. The coffee I want will be in the room for the machine will be well stocked. 6. We requested a certain butler....MAXI So, if you are staying in a suite, you can do this too! Just call 1-855-625-4283. Yup, any suite on any ship! I sooooo love NCL!!:D I called that number last Thursday morning to arrange a CC get-together in the GV. I was told that while it was busy, someone would either call me or email me with information. Today is Monday....still waiting....not impressed! :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would I still do that through this email address or the pre-concierge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
