Booking Entertainment/Beverage Package etc. when booking through a third party site.

[InsertWittyUserNameHere]

Hello,

 

I've always booked directly through the cruiseline (Royal and NCL) but in looking up prices I've found a third party site that is slightly cheaper and includes free gratuities and a free specialty dinner. That sounds great, but how are other reservations handled? Can I still get the discounted beverage and internet packages that frequently show up on Royal's website or would I have to pay full price? Can I still book complementary restaurants/shows/activities (looking at sailing Anthem) through the cruise planner or does it all have to go through the third party site?

You can use the cruise planner for reserving shows drink pkgs and activities and shore excursions. You cant make any changes to your reservation thru the site only thru who you booked with.

Thanks! Sounds like I could still do everything through cruiseplanner/rccl website except change my cabin which works out well.

You also lose the ability to make payments, cancel the cruise, change dining, link reservations.

We intend to do my time dining, so it sounds like I can still make my own reservations, right?

 

Thanks to both of you for your help! This is why I love cruise critic.

Yes, if you are currently assigned to My Time, you will be able to make reservations with the Cruise Planner.
