rojojacko Posted September 11, 2017 #1 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Hi everyone We have just booked a tour in Canada followed by a seven night Alaska cruise on Westerdam next spring and I have a couple of questions. We are 3 star members of the Mariners Society from some cruises years ago and I see that I am entitled to a 25% discount on wine packages. Does this include the Navigators and Admirals choice packages? I see that we are also entitled to an embarkation lunch and another brunch. We are travelling with three other couples who haven't cruised with HAL but have cruise history with Princess, Costa and P and O. Will this entitle them to attend those functions? Lastly, is there a facility to pre-pay our gratuities to save money as there is on many other lines? Many thanks for your help, I just need to do the sums with the drinks package versus pay as you go! Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted September 11, 2017 #2 Share Posted September 11, 2017 Welcome back to HAL. Yes -- your 25% discount works on those wine packages as well as the Pinnacle Grill and Canaletto. You can also use it in the Explorations Cafe -- now part of the bar in the Crow's Nest -- to buy specialty coffees and teas. The Embarkation lunch is now open to everyone. The only time it is not open is if there is a special event in the main dining room. Since your friends have sailed on other Carnival Corporation ships, they should get an invitation to the Mariner's Brunch -- held later in the cruise. Check at the front office on about the second day of the cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted September 11, 2017 #3 Share Posted September 11, 2017 On HAL's site there is a place where you can purchase shipboard credit to pay your gratuities or anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
