yorkshire1975 Posted September 26, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2013 We want to try both restaurants but shall we book before we go? I did read that it can get booked up? Are we better to book for the first night and do they have nights with offers ie; free wine etc. We are going for 2 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kersh Posted September 26, 2013 #2 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Never known free wine but East did use to have 1/2 price nights but Sindhu on Azura never did. East is now another Sindhu so may not do the deals now. We book as soon as we get on board. Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorkshire1975 Posted September 26, 2013 Author #3 Share Posted September 26, 2013 Free wine too much to hope for lol Wasnt sure if East was an Adul restaurant as no mention of him, only on the azura. People say ask for main dining menus and go on the night you like the menu the least but really want to try them so dont want to miss out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinyork Posted September 26, 2013 #4 Share Posted September 26, 2013 When you board they have desks set up in the Atrium. You can book there. Never heard of any offers or free wine. On Celebrity the restaurants can be half price on the first night......come on P&O give us something. Best to book speciality restaurants on non formal nights as the main dining room menu is upgraded for formal nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sueandphil Posted September 26, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 26, 2013 You can't book either before you board but as other posters have said book as soon as you board in the atrium If you want an outside table in the White Room remember to request it when you book Sometimes there are offers but never seen one that includes wine You used to get a bottle of wine for a small charge when you booked the White Room as a gift package but that has been removed now Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daiB Posted September 28, 2013 #11 Share Posted September 28, 2013 On all ships the length of the cruise makes a big difference. On a short cruise you need to book as soon as possible. But on a long cruise it is not as important. Gan Canny Dai Sent from my iPad using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons for that was, when we were on the Azura a couple of years ago, we couldnt get into any of the speciality restaurants. Always telling us to wait on cancellations but that never happened. So I would say, why wait till your onboard. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sueandphil Posted October 4, 2013 #13 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Larakdy, You used not to be able to book before you boarded, it seems according to an email that I've received that is not now the case. Even when you booked a gift package for the speciality restaurants you could not chose the date until you boarded. That was certainly the case up till this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please note: Date and time of your reservation will be confirmed onboard. so the date and time CANNOT be booked before boarding if this is true Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
