Platinum dinners ..book ahead ???

[Jldevlin]

This is our first time as platinum and I know that you get 2 dinners per stateroom ..we are now 89 days out for our 16 day Transatlantic aboard the Getaway....so tonight we booked 2 shows and were thinking of booking at Cagneys and one at Moderno ...

So if we book now will they automatically charge us for them and then take it off when we go to dinner for our perk ??? Or would it be easier to just do it on the ship ...we have lots of sea days and we can eat anytime ....and anything else you can pre book ??? We also got the spa pass...cant wait for that lol ...

Have a look at the guide in my signature.

 

Firstly, there is no charge for booking Cagneys ahead of time, so you can go ahead with that one.

 

Unless you have a dining package then you will be charged for Moderno. Personally, I would wait until you get onboard to book that to avoid having to try to get the money back. You shouldn't have any problem as long as you do it fairly soon after boarding.

We booked specialty dining ahead on our Epic cruise a few months ago, but when we got to the ship I think we changed everything we had booked. We won't bother on our cruise the end of March

Okay good to know thanks ....We ended up with a comp to Cagneys on the Spirit last year and hubby cant wait to go back ....So the change in Platinum perks to there makes him very happy ..

You can pre book any ala carte restaurants, and then just hand them your platinum voucher. Any restaurant that is a set price, you will be charged for. I would pre-book anything that you can, (Cagney's) and change onboard if needed. Moderno's is usually pretty easy to get into, and you should have no problems booking once onboard. None of our reservations were changed unless we changed them.

Safe sailing

We have made several trips as platinum and cagneys was not an option. On our last ncl cruise we did LeBistro and Moderno. I read some where the only choices was LeBistro and LaCucina. Someone that has been recently could elaborate on this.

We have a cruise in less than 11 weeks until next cruise but have the unlimited dining. The cruise after the one in April is a 9 day and only have a 3 meal package so we will be using our platinum coupon so will be nice if we can use it for cagneys.

The new latitudes rules are one meal in either Cagneys or Le Bistro and the other in either Moderno or La Cucina.

Thanks and good to know.

Not a huge fan of moderno (months worth of salt in one meal) and maybe one dish looks appealing at LaCucina. Any suggestions for LaCucina? Heard it was new and improved .

We plan to try the New Mexican place on the Dawn in April .

Thanks again

We really like La Cucina. Try the Osso Bucco and the Shrimp Diavolo.. also the desserts are great there, too. Cheesecake is wonderful, so is the chocolate tart, and the affogato! The calamari and bruschetta are usually good also.

[KeithJenner]

I love the Osso Bucco in La Cucina. It's probably my favourite dish onboard, and in my opinion it has improved with the new menus.

 

Calamari is always good too.

May get brave and try the ossa bucco. Just didn't flip my switch reading the menu.

Thanks

2 vouchers, good for 2 meals each, per stateroom, regardless of # of platinum guests in that cabin.
