Travelling2Some Posted December 11, 2022 #1 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I always make our specialty dining reservations in advance as soon as the window opens up. They clearly appear in my cruise summary before we sail. However, on my last 3 cruises when we show up at our first reserved specialty restaurant they have NO record of any of the reservations I made. I have learned to always bring the print out showing that we DO, in fact, have a reservation and they seat us without an issue and fix the other reservations in the system. But what the heck??? Are others experiencing this? This only happens on NCL and it is consistent. It's odd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare MarkusToe Posted December 11, 2022 #2 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Exactly the same with us. We choose new timing, but tataaaa. Old reservation came back on day 3 or 4 , now we have to sort out and cancel ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelling2Some Posted December 11, 2022 Author #3 Share Posted December 11, 2022 All I can say is that Royal Caribbean's IT is much worse overall BUT they do appear able to hold onto dining reservations, lol. They have always seated us when I proved in writing that I had a reservation but, since this was (at least) the third cruise this has happened on, I was curious if it is an "NCL thing" or a personal vendetta, lol. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is really strange. Do you generally make a specialty dining reservation for the first night of the cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiefMateJRK Posted December 11, 2022 #6 Share Posted December 11, 2022 NCL.com had a glitch with traveling companion's Lattitudes account numbers recently. Are you making the dinner reservations under the same account that you booked the cruise under or another person's account who is on the reservation?

Rare JennKach Posted December 11, 2022 #7 Share Posted December 11, 2022 I had mine not show in the app schedule or the TV while onboard, but they were still valid in NCL's system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

don't-use-real-name Posted December 12, 2022 #9 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Any dining reservations - best to check first thing on boarding at the Dining Reservations desk or the remote location with several crew people manning the system. Verify your reservations or make changes additions as necessary and get the printed receipt showing same. Teppanyaki is one of the most popular and difficult restaurant to get reservations exactly when you want them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelling2Some Posted December 12, 2022 Author #10 Share Posted December 12, 2022 We will be on the Bliss next month and I am going to verify our dining reservations when we board just to be safe. I always bring the summary print out as proof. Interesting that others have had the opposite happen in that their reservations did exist yet they could not see them in advance. I always make all travel arrangements for both myself and my husband using my own account. However, we did have weird things happen to several of our cruises after the husband messed around with the NCL app one day. Since he didn't know his Latitudes number (or even what a Latitudes number is) he went ahead and got himself a brand new one, resulting in the loss of his Platinum status and many emails demanding mysterious small sums of money (turned out to be lost discounts on booked items). Took a while to sort things out!
