Dinner reservations

[woodman6703]

We are going on our first NCL cruise December 1 out of New Orleans on the getaway. It is 4 adults with two different reservations. We made individual dinner reservations in specially dining. How do we combine those reservations to have dinner together each night?

you dont need multiple reservations. one person can make a reservation with a party size of 4 for dinner

Two possibilities

 

Call NCL Reservations on 1 800 327 7030 with the cruise reservation numbers and ask for the dining reservation be converted from two reservations for 2 into a reservation for 4.

 

When you board go to the special dining reservation desk set up for embarkation day and do the same thing.

Thanks that will be helpful to new cruisers, though honestly if you are platinum you should know these things. 😀

 

interestingly enough that page doesn’t mention when latitude members can book. 9Unless I am just not seeing it.)

Interesting, I thought it was there before.  It IS covered in the Latitudes T&C's (which are also readily available on the Latitudes page on NCL)  - https://www.ncl.com/latitudes-rewards-program/benefits-terms-and-conditions

I’m 120 days out, and as part of the “general pop” group, I was able to make specialty restaurant reservations today. However, when I tried to make reservations for 2 at the MDR, Taste, and Savor it seemed that reservations could only be made for parties of 6 or 8. I don’t remember this from the last cruise. New policy? I realize it won’t be hard to seat 2 on the fly, but we wanted specific times a couple nights.

You should not have made two separate reservations. You should have one person book a table for 4. Right now, you have blocked two 2-tops and there may not be a 4-top available. As soon as you embark, head to restaurant reservations to fix.

reservations for the MDR (taste/savor) is not needed nor required. you dont need to make those in advance.

Do the specialty restaurants take reservations for one person, or is it like the main dining areas where they will seat you with another group of people?

 

Thanks

You can book a table for 2, even as a "single"!

And you don't have to share that table with anyone! 😄

You are never seated in the MDR with other people unless you request it and they agree. And the minimum number of chairs at a 2-top is 2, both specialty and MDR so you would make specialty reservations for 2.
