Ultimate dining and beverage pack on the Epic

[andre crabshaw]

Hi there new to this

 

my question is they seem to be selling loads of these as a promotion at the moment. When we come to cruise on the epic at the end of November. Will there be more people with the packages than not thus making it alot harder to book the speciality restaurants.

 

Any views would be appreciated

 

regards

Andre, 60 to 90 days before your cruise, you can book your dinner reservations in the specialty restaurants on the NCL website. Once you have your reservations, then it won't matter how many people have this package as your table and time will be pre-reserved for you. I am going on Getaway in May and had no trouble reserving the restaurants I wanted and dining times I wanted.

Planning to make restaurant reservations ahead of time as well for our Dec cruise.

This is not the first time they have offered UDP for free. It had been offered for free prior to both of our cruises last year. We never had a problem booking the specialty restaurants, and we had UDP both cruises.

Yes, one person should be able to book a table for two without a problem. The last time I made reservations for dinner I was able to book for 3 although there was only two people on my reservation.

Remember that only the Haven people get everything. If you're in a balcony/mini, you only get to choose 1 of the promotions. And I would imagine (based on the original sticker prices) that most people will choose the Beverage package.

 

They'll probably be a small uptick in the number of folks utilizing the specialty restaurants, but I don't think it'll be overrun to the point that everything will be booked up before you even step foot on the boat.

We are booked in a mini suite and got both the drinks package and the speciality restaurant package.

I am hoping that the free packages won't make too much of a difference.

We will make reservations ahead of the cruise but, as we haven't eaten in any of the alternative restaurants yet, we won't know which ones to book more than once!
