POA - Cagney's embarkation lunch

[Beachiekeen]

We will be on the Pride of America in a suite and want to get to the port and board early enough to have lunch at Cagney's.  Does anyone know what the lunch hours are and if it's different on embarkation day?  I found a post that said 12:30-2:30 but it wasn't for the POA and also I thought embark day might be earlier.  Also I have in my notes breakfast is 6:30-9:30 can anyone confirm?  Also are we able to have breakfast there on disembarkation day?  TIA.

I’m also wondering about these things. We’ll be on the Pride Sept 14th and also in a suite. Bumping in case anyone knows the answers to these questions.

Not sure of closing, but I always tried to be in for lunch by 1.  It’s well worth it, and I would HIGHLY recommend taking advantage of the breakfast and lunch for suite holders (we did), as the quality of food is worlds better - I mean worlds.

 

Breakfast starts at 6 at Cagneys.

 

Yes, you can have breakfast on disembarkation day (we did).  Nice way to start off that day, as again the food is worlds better.  I really can’t say that enough - it was “meh” at best elsewhere.  

 

I will say most of the POA reviews are spot on now that I have been on the ship.

Thanks!  We are hoping to board around noon so hopefully we can just go straight to lunch.

Should be in good shape.  They have a separate checkin for suite holders - with snacks.  Once checked in, they will escort you on the ship and straight to Cagneys for lunch (at least they did for us).

 

Enjoy!

Awesome thanks!  We will be on Oahu for 3 nights prior, so we want to board early and use this day relaxing on the ship.  It will be go, go, go after that!

 

Do you think we should get there earlier than 11-11:30?

Thanks for the info

We will be in suite for our upcoming cruise in the 24th

searching the boards there is not much info on POA suites 

what time did you check in? Was it quick for suite guests? And after you checked in you were escorted to Carney’s?

i had heard they escorted you to your suite 

How soon was your suite ready?

[rcooked]

We checked in before noon, we had a pick up time from the hotel shuttle through NCL of 9:30 am.  The suite check in process was seamless  - they have a separate area for them with snacks.

 

From the checkin, they escorted us to Cagneys and we ate.  Took about an hour for lunch - we moved slow as room wasn’t ready and then explored the ship.

 

Room ended up not being ready until

about 3-3:30.  Takes them a

while to get cleaned.  They called guest room availability by floor as done.  It was random by floors.

 

Overall, pretty smooth and having Cagneys helps pass some time.  I wouldn’t rush through lunch there - it will take them some time to prep rooms.

We have a 10:30 pickup. Hubby wants to get there earlier but I told him there was probably no need just to sit and wait. Sounds like we will probably be there at just the right time. 

 

One more question, I thought I read you can drop off carry on bags somewhere on the ship, do you know about that?

If you are a suite guest, they will hold them in Cagney’s for you.

Oh great, thank you!

I ate breakfast most days in Cagney.  I was always in there by 8am.    It isn’t worth my time embarking early. since the ship doesn’t sail until 7pm.     I definitely don’t get the people lined up when I’m getting off.   (Which I always see. 🙂 ).

We discussed this at length but my husband loves to get on the ship early no matter what.  And we will be on Oahu for 3 days before the cruise and then it will be go, go, go after the cruise starts so we are using embarkation day as a sea day of sorts.

 

I think I did convince him to hike Diamond Head on embarkation morning so we can get an earlier start on our other 2 full days on Oahu but that's the most I could do.
