bajathree Posted June 18 #2 Share Posted June 18 Yes....caught that last night. 30% for Giovanni lunch on my upcoming Utopia sailing making it $16.99/pp. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dpostman Posted June 18 #3 Share Posted June 18 Beware of the sale... this time the GRATUITIES ARE NOT INCLUDED in the posted sale prices I almost cancelled my previous purchases from a few months ago to repurchase, but noticed just in time. Once they add the grats to the total in the cart, it was more than my previous price I got in April. This was for the 3 night pkg and the Chef's Table. 9 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marci22 Posted June 18 #4 Share Posted June 18 (edited) Same for me, about the same price as before because now they are adding gratuities. This was for the unlimited dining package. Edited June 18 by marci22 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Defender1158 Posted June 18 #5 Share Posted June 18 I was able to get one of my UDP reservations rebooked at about $100 savings. I had three others with original "gratuities included" that came out almost exactly the same as the new pricing once grats were added in. The one with the savings did not have grats included originally, so this is probably worth checking out, but carefully. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robmtx Posted June 18 #8 Share Posted June 18 Hah. I just did a mock reservation for the UDP and since they removed the "Grats included" offer and raised the base price, this new offer brings my all-in price to $90/day per couple... Before the flash sale I had it pegged at... drum roll... $90/day per couple... 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoeyVictoria Posted June 18 #9 Share Posted June 18 Thank you for posting. I was looking at Chops lunch on the Grandeur for $57 (for two), today it is $42, so I booked it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few dining packages resulted in some savings but nearly all of my boarding day lunches dropped in price today. It’s nice to see a REAL “sale” occasionally. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We really enjoy embarkation day specialty lunches. This one will be even better because we go to the WJ on first nights out of Tampa so we can be on a top deck as the ship sails under the Skyway Bridge. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Researcher Posted June 18 #12 Share Posted June 18 (edited) Thank you for this! Saved $40 on our embarkation day lunch next March, and $20 on each of two lunches on our August cruise this year.

The Fun Researcher Posted June 18 #13 Share Posted June 18 It also convinced me to sign up for a Hibachi lunch for our party of 6 for the first time, so I saved $80 on other meals but spent another $198 LOL. 🤣 Well worth it though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me thinks @FionaMG works for RCL!! 😆 P.S., We also bit and booked a couple of specialty lunches that we normally wouldn't have, but Spaving is Spaving (Spending to save) LOL Edited June 18 by cruisemiser1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was very happy to get a decent price for embarkation day lunch on my upcoming cruise on Freedom. ☺️ 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustUs275 Posted June 18 #16 Share Posted June 18 Thanks for the heads up! I booked Jamie's Italian lunch for our October Mariner sailing. 😊 Question: We will be boarding Harmony the day after we disembark Mariner. Does anyone happen to know how to book for lunch at Sabor on Harmony? We prefer to eat our main meal at lunch, but on the Cruise Planner only dinner hours are available to reserve. I thought about reserving dinner, then trying to change it to lunch once we are on the ship. @OCSC Mike, maybe you have suggestions since it's Sabor 🌮 🥑, assuming it's the same reservation/change process on all ships? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wish I could help you. I've seen that sorta thing before though. Giovanni's lunch wasn't available in the CP for my Wonder cruises for a while... then it eventually appeared. No idea why. Royal IT shenanigans perhaps. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZoeyVictoria Posted June 18 #22 Share Posted June 18 I added Giovanni’s embarkation day lunch on Wonder of the Seas in January tor $40 for two. Even without considering the food, the chance to escape the chaos of embarkation day in the WJ is worth $20 pp. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
