Foxtrotoscar46 Posted July 6, 2014 #1 Share Posted July 6, 2014 Hi, cruising on the Silver Spirit from Athens to Venice next month. I chose some restaurant bookings online as soon as I could a few months back. Everything has been fine every time I have checked since. However, today I noticed that suddenly I have been wait listed for the final evening of our cruise for a booking we had at Le Champagne. Can anyone shed any light on why this would happen? We are Silversea Virgins..:) Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxtrotoscar46 Posted July 8, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Hi Katie, I've been checking for a roll call too. I would have started one if I knew how... Hopefully we will meet onboard.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dusababy Posted July 8, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 8, 2014 Hi Katie, I've been checking for a roll call too. I would have started one if I knew how... Hopefully we will meet onboard.:) Why don't you click on Silversea's MEET & MINGLE top of this page -- start there -- and if you get 6 or more you're assured a very nice cocktail meet early in the cruise -- meeting your fellow passengers.

Foxtrotoscar46 Posted July 9, 2014 Author #11 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Thanks dusababy, I'm on the list now. When I submitted my name, it said congratulations, you've achieved the minimum of 6 people required. I only see 4. Oh well, we will wait and see.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattsmum Posted July 15, 2014 #12 Share Posted July 15, 2014 We are on this cruise too. Our booking for Champagne is also on a wait list although all other bookings are confirmed. This will be our 4th cruise on Spirit but we've never tried Champagne before. I've joined the Meet and Mingle, so will see you there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxtrotoscar46 Posted July 15, 2014 Author #14 Share Posted July 15, 2014 Hi Mattsmum, looking forward to meeting you. Herman the Cat, it's on 4th August... Very soon. While I'm on here, I still haven't received my documents. Is this normal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacko Posted July 15, 2014 #16 Share Posted July 15, 2014 In April on the Spirit, we had made on-line dinner reservations at several restaurants. When we boarded, we only had one confirmed reservation notice in our mail box. I immediately headed down to Stars and joined a very long line of unhappy campers. The official word at that time (maybe not now) was that on-line reservations were mere requests and not a confirmed reservation. I sincerely hope this has been resolved since April.

Foxtrotoscar46 Posted July 15, 2014 Author #17 Share Posted July 15, 2014 JackO, thanks for that information, much appreciated. Wow.. I've got a comment from Duct Tape, isn't that like being acknowledged by Royalty on here? :):):) thanks will I be receiving the famous silver box? Or is that for the great and the good?

Herman The Cat Posted July 16, 2014 #18 Share Posted July 16, 2014 We are on the same itinerary later this year, so I hope you will post to let us know what you thought of the ports and what you did in each port. When we were on the Spirit in March, we stopped in at Stars to confirm they had our reservations. They only had reservations for the first 5 days of the cruise, as they said they are forwarded to them in that manner. It wasn't a problem at all...ultimately, they had all our online reservations. But I did bring a print out of what we had reserved so I could confirm with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herman The Cat Posted July 16, 2014 #19 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Oh, and you should receive the documents from 3 to 6 weeks before the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myc6toy Posted July 16, 2014 #20 Share Posted July 16, 2014 (edited) We made all our dining and spa reservations online for our May cruise on the Spirit, and when we boarded we were given a list of them, and they were all as reserved. Boarding staff mentioned that the system was working. Also received a list from our butler, and daily confirmations in our mail slot. So for us it worked well. Hopefully it will work yhe same for our next cruise Edited July 16, 2014 by myc6toy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derbylane Posted July 16, 2014 #22 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Thanks, we booked directly with Silversea, and I have emailed them. No reply yet. I will post the reply. Just wondering why you would book direct and not through a TA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duct tape Posted July 16, 2014 #23 Share Posted July 16, 2014 Because you can do it on-line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
