Specialty dining on Explorer of the Seas

[Coyote10]

Hi I am just wondering if it is better to prebook the specialty dining, or do they usually have better deals once you get on board? Cruising out of Sydney on the 30th of March

 

Currently they have a 3 dinner package for $91 AUD

 

What have you found in the past? Is it cheaper to wait?

 

Also what themed dress up nights do they usually have on a cruise and how do you know what to bring? eg 70's night, Tropical theme etc

 

Thanks

:D

Bumping this because I'm curious too.

I am also curious about theme nights. I've never been on RCL before. How do you know what it will be in advance of the cruise? What are they like? Do you dress up?

I'd wait till on board for dining specials, sometimes all you have to do is ask the specialty dining staff for any specials they can give you, but do this during the day & not around other passengers. Sshhh ;) Also, sometimes if you register at the art auctions on the first day they may give you a whole lot of discount vouchers to use around the ship.

Other than formal nights, Royal doesn't really do theme nights. They are more of a small themed party, usually held after 10.30pm in studio B. So you won't find many people dressed up in theme as such. If you really want to partake in dressing up & some do, the most common ones might be a country & western party, 70's, rock & roll & british rock.

The prices don't change...it might seem better because of exchange rates...but the price it the same.
