GranJean Posted October 24, 2018 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2018 We will be sailing on the Grand Princess again next year but this time in a Vista Suite (sweet). It will be our first cruise in a suite. Our understanding is that if we so desire, our meals in the Main Dining Room will be in the Club Class section. So do we still specify a seating time on the traditional dining reservation or simply select anytime dining and go to the Club Class entry whenever we wish? Thanx, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx, Select anytime and it defaults to Club Class. You cannot do both TD and CC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skynight Posted October 24, 2018 #3 Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) Anytime. With Club Class walk in just about anytime the DR is open and you will be seated. Edited October 24, 2018 by skynight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
memoak Posted October 24, 2018 #4 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Also remember for breakfast you have the option of using the "suite" breakfast dining in a specialty or using club class Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john_galt Posted October 24, 2018 #5 Share Posted October 24, 2018 You can also order from the MDR menu for delivery to the room or pop for UBD. We did both and never saw the inside of the MDR. www.flickr.com/photos/seawitch_platinum/albums/72157650342874925 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare geoherb Posted October 25, 2018 #7 Share Posted October 25, 2018 If you prefer to eat in traditional, you still can. We had a mother-daughter pair at our table even though they were in a suite. They did not realize about Club Class dining until a few days into the cruise, but by then, they enjoyed dining with us and the other couple at our table and decided to stay. They still had Sabatini's for breakfast and Club Class for lunch the few days we were in port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle_and_hawk Posted October 25, 2018 #9 Share Posted October 25, 2018 The last morning, Sabatini’s and CC breakfast will be closed. Since you will be in a suite, you can hang the card out the night before and have a full breakfast delivered. We always do this and are out sitting on the balcony when we arrive back into port. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, on our last cruise, suite passengers were allowed to have CC breakfast the last morning. It was on the starboard side of the Island dining room. Plenty of room for your carry on luggage. It was not for mini suite club class people, just full suite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong on CC being closed as thought that is what we were told on the Coral last year. I will ask later today to see what they do here on the CB. I believe the earliest you can select is 6:00am, and we pick the earliest as typically first off the ship. When we go back down to the room in a bit, I will check the door tag to see the options. The good thing is they are not busy with room service deliveries the last morning and always been able to get it brought in early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF-1 Posted October 25, 2018 #13 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Club Class dining is awesome. If you go into your personalizer; you should see club class listed for dining option Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyinpa Posted October 25, 2018 #14 Share Posted October 25, 2018 interesting, i thought room service would be slammed. nice to know we have 2 solid options that morning. one thing i do remember is even though we were opposite direction going out of brooklyn that traffic was killer. unsure if later is better or not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
compozer Posted October 25, 2018 #15 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I always found that when we ordered last day breakfast from our suite, everything was luke warm. That has always been the case with coffee. We used it as a wake up call. But they fill those carafes way before they start delivering them. We have stopped doing that and just call down for coffee when we wake up. It is much hotter. Both cruises that had last day cc breakfast was on the CB.

The suite breakfast option (Sabatinis) is closed on disembarkation morning.........for us Club Class in the DR has always been available on disembarkation morning. On the CB last month they had disembarkation breakfast in the aft deck 6 DR (Palm) where they set up the Club Class section table settings similar to the dedicated space in the mid ship DR.

Eagle_and_hawk Posted October 25, 2018 #18 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Looks like the earliest for suite room service is 6:30am. We have done this the last several cruises and food arrived on time and hot. It’s one last opportunity to spend time outside on the balcony, watching the sun come up as sailing into port.

Rare Tak8 Posted October 25, 2018 #19 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Club Class dining was available on the last day, but on the Caribbean Princess they moved it to a different dining room because of CC being used for disembarkation. For me, Sabatini's is the best way to start the day. Wonderful breakfast and excellent service. A must try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanx, Don't forget that if your cruise is 6 days or longer, that you receive a complimentary dinner in one of the speciality restaurants (including UBD) on the night of embarkation. We have chosen UBD as we sail past the Sydney Opera House :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
