Sea Hag Posted July 17 #801 Share Posted July 17 13 minutes ago, Retired-N-Happy said: There is no rhyme or reason why it is the way it is. It's frustrating that Princess is not following their own rules. You should either be Platinum or above or paid off to reserve. It's a perk that you have earned. The fact that first time Princess cruisers can use the web version and reserve ahead of time defeats the purpose of having the perk for loyal customers. Two different development teams - one for app and one for website version. No cross checking and possibly even not the same set of instructions. I'll believe anything at this point when it comes to programming flubs on Princess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ziggyuk Posted July 17 #802 Share Posted July 17 25 minutes ago, Josie201 said: OK still no luck for me. Only option via both avenues is Michelango 5;00 and 7:20 p.m. Botticelli and DaVinci says no time slots available. That was my experience, so I booked Michelangelo spot for 7.20 every night, kept checking for 2 weeks then a few days ago all the traditional dining was gone and Botticelli opened up slots every 20 minutes. I replaced several of my original bookings or Botticelli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arizonaperson Posted July 17 #804 Share Posted July 17 @Josie201 here’s what I show for Ruby. Ruby Princess-2024 & 2025 ( reservations open for 7-5-25 + now) Michelangelo is traditional at 5 PM ( shared or private table)and 7:20 pm (private table only)-as of July 14, 2024 cruise/ voyage in April 2025. This dining room is full? Not able to book for either seating. For a cruise/ voyage in October 2024 only 5 pm is available for traditional. Botticelli- reservable,every 20 minute time slots- able to get private table (6 pm , 7:00, & 7:20 pm) DaVinci- walk in ,no reservations so you have tried the web version with no luck? Post 789 has link. keep trying & yes times do open up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arizonaperson Posted July 17 #805 Share Posted July 17 (edited) @Cruise till you drop the private/ share table option should be at the end. Pick dining room first,then time,then table. Of course not all choices are available every time you log in. Might be full for your choice. Post (#746) a screen shot of what this looks like. Not sure if web or app. Edited July 17 by arizonaperson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arizonaperson Posted July 17 #806 Share Posted July 17 (edited) @555 perhaps your choice on The Sun Princess is full for dining reservations, so that’s why Princess agent could not do anything for you,except refer you to onboard dining room manager?? Perhaps select a different DR or time ? Or keep checking the app or web version. Can’t make a reservation for a timeslot or dining room that’s not available. Of course onboard they may be able to work something out for you. Have you tried other dining rooms or other timeslots to see if you’re able to make a reservation? I know that this is not what you want, but are you able to do it. That might explain why you can’t get 5 PM, but of course I have no idea.

bandp407 Posted July 17 #807 Share Posted July 17 FINALLY!! After many attempts!! Thanks to all who have posted!! Yes, the web link below did work. I was able to reserve dining for our end January Sun Sailing (Horizon deck 7) & end May on the Enchanted( Amalfi Dining Room). Both with a private table. With the link I went in using our booking number. https://oceanready-personalinfo-ui.prod.ocean.com/ 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Botticelli shows "No time slots available" as does Da Vinci. Michelangelo shows me 5:00 PM and 7:30 PM - neither of which suits me. My cruise on Regal just before the one on Emerald just gives me a giant ERROR for all three of those dining rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arizonaperson Posted July 17 #810 Share Posted July 17 @Thrak Here’s what I have for Regal. Regal Princess 2024? Or 2025? Symphony- Traditional 5 pm ( private or shared table) or 7:30pm( private table only) Allegro-reservable 5 pm - 8:40 pm,every 20 minute reservation time slots Concerto- walk in We’ll darn that you can’t book Regal P. Since it’s before your other cruise. I am assuming you’ve tried all the different ways that other passengers are obtaining the reservations? The app, a PC, your phone, a different phone, etc. So is your Regal cruise August 2025 and beyond? We’ll keep trying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not at all surprised I can't make dinner reservations yet although I do have everything else up to date and am Green Lane all the way on both that and the Emerald cruise that follows. There is plenty of time before we sail to get dining locked in. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on for two weeks starting on October 26 and even after paying off early, couldn't get the slots we wanted. Luckily the 2025 slots opened a few weeks ago and we got our 540 two top for our 14 nights in January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

susancruzs Posted July 20 #816 Share Posted July 20 (edited) Just changed my Majestic 2026 Spring TA + Brit to a Regal Fall 2025 Brit + TA, 31 days. Decided to check app on my phone, was able to book dining 5 p.m. all days in the Symphony. Mentioning this for AZ, she is keeping a great list. I have dining set for 3 cruises, Emerald Oct. New England, Spring 2025 Coral 23 days, FLL to Vancouver. This is good for me because I miss the days of telling my TA, early dining and be done with it.

I’ve made them for my TA in July 2026 (and everything in between) on Saphire already. My CVP had someone from the DMW team call me when I wasn’t able to do it online. I don’t remember if you use a TA or a CVP? The eclipse cruise was hectic! Edited July 20 by HaveDogWillTravel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arizonaperson Posted July 20 #820 Share Posted July 20 @HaveDogWillTravel could you share what ship and what dining room you were able to book for July 2026 on the Sapphire ? Thanks. Platinum or Elite? just trying to update my list on another thread. And if you wish to share information on private table ,shared ,or time, I have no information for 2026 on the Sapphire.

In fact we have Michelangelo reserved for 6:00pm every evening rather than Botticelli. Seems odd as your Dining schedule seems correct for 2024 & 2025.

arizonaperson Posted July 20 #823 Share Posted July 20 @OceanoPair thanks for the information. I have nothing for 2026 for Emerald P., but I will update what you have.

The only real "bad" day I had was the day of the Meet and Greet. I was in a world of hurt and pretty much out of it. Ah, well. If I'm going to be hurting I can do it at home or on a ship. Guess which one I would choose...😉 Edit: @doghog @HaveDogWillTravel Did you make them via the app or the online version?
