tbmrt Posted October 25, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 25, 2023 I've never cruised VV with others. We are going from PR with a group of 6 and we'd really like to do excursions together. When window opens for making excursions (night before) I intend to make reservations for all of us for an excursion we would not want to miss. I understand this will get billed to my cc and I will collect for other couples. It would be alot easier if we could each make our own that evening, but I'm worried that some of us would snatch the excursion reservation and others may not. Our TA offered to make our reservations for this excursion, but probably wouldn't do so til the morning the reservation window opens. I understand she has the same ability as us to get the reservations so I'm a bit worried about her being able to do so. Best way to handle? On another note......RE: Other excursion reservations made onboard from loot...If I make these for all does the cost get taken from each couple's loot or all from mine? Thanks everyone in this wonderful board! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverendingcruising Posted October 25, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 25, 2023 Onboard it goes against the bookers account if you do it in the app. If one person from each party goes to the desk they can book you together and charge each cabin separately.

Upon request, our TA stays up and books dinners and excursions when the bookings open. Usually around 11:30p ET. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbmrt Posted October 27, 2023 Author #6 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Started watching VV app to book excursions last night....Kept getting the message about come back 10/27 to book, etc. At exactly midnight, I was able to book the excursion we wouldn't want to miss for the 3 couples in our group. As I was told, all were charged to my credit card. (Jost Van Dyke...many memories there!) My TA offered to book for us, but didn't say anything about trying this night before excursion booking window opened so I was a bit nervous that we'd miss out on the opportunity to book the excursion we were most excited about. I felt funny asking her to book the night before. Will the loot for any paid activities that I make for our group when we first board the ship be charged to me or to their individual loot balances? A very tired lady here this morning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best way to handle 3 different cabins wanting the same excursion taken from their individual cabin's loot? Perhaps best to go to Sailor Services immediately upon boarding? OR if we book immediately individually and one couple cannot get that excursion, is there a chance Sailor Services could add it for them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neverendingcruising Posted October 27, 2023 #9 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Don't go to sailor services, go to the excursion desk. Big red table on deck 7 near the roundabout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
