Having the APP will make your life somewhat easier, I would say it is advantageous but not 100% needed Useful for checking in Daily planner is viewable Booking dining Checking your calendar Deck information Download it and have a look, link your reservation and you will get a feel for what you can do you can even view menus for all dining venues The app fully updates with 100% correct info on your boarding day Note: what you will see in the app will be data from a previous sailing on the cruise going before yours Enjoy your cruise (We lived in Coppell for 18 years) Edited October 7, 2023 by PompeySailor 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the app to see menu for dinner ahead of time to plan a bit. I book shows, sign in for boarding online. App isnt necessary but helpful. I also once onboard click on daily planner, then filter by entertainment to see what show I booked that night. I doubt any 2 people use it the same. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don’t “need it”, but it has lots of useful stuff before and during your cruise. …and you can display your luggage tags on your phone and attach your phone to your luggage handle 🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smokeybandit Posted October 7, 2023 #8 Share Posted October 7, 2023 There's zero need to use the app on board. But it can be convenient 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of lines though... is that typical for MDR? I would think with so many dining options that nothing would get backed up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do specialty for the most part, whenever we have been around the elevators near the MDR (Decks 3/4/5) it always looks messy (6:30-7:00) I’m not the best to comment accurately on lines and Q’s for Main Dining My experience is very limited Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just sounds as if you must pre-reserve meals and shows or you won't be able to participate.... My real world is so structured that I prefer to just "go with the flow" when we're cruising. 🙂 Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For shows, odds are there will always be availability for walk-ins. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruise Gopher Posted October 8, 2023 #18 Share Posted October 8, 2023 Don’t forget you can also use the app on board to view your onboard account charges and keep track of things to make sure nothing is being charged incorrectly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
