We are through here in November and stumped. What did you end up doing? TIA

Same, also looking

Following. However we have also looked at the Aruba ports of call and seems like lots of both private excursions and also easy to get around individually.

I’m not on this ship but have done Tahiti by cruises before (as recently as last year on Windstar which was great). Moorea is the better snorkel locale so if you can get one there, far better. Just FYI

If you’re going to Moorea in the morning, it’s worth getting up early on deck and watching sunrise with some coffee as you make the very short trip over.

The food trucks will be parked down near there, great eats if you want to try off the ship since you have an overnight. Great street food!

Me too, I am now GF, mostly DF and 95% sugar free. Def has me eating healthy, I look at stuff now and instead of thinking I want it, will be more like yuck, I’ll have some fruit instead. I think the cruise will be easier than I thought! I def feel way better since my docs pointed me this way. Thanks!

Thanks to both you and Cruise Feen for the great info! Eases my mind. LawDog, my heart goes out to you as someone who has celiac. I do not have celiac but have other autoimmune diseases and am NCGS and eating it adversely impacts me. My docs have me off it. So feel for you because you have to worry so much more about cross contamination even a grain of sand portion. But I am also glad to hear that I can get GF pastry, pasta and pizza! Thank you both so much for brightening my day!

Yay! GF bread! That makes me happy. Thanks everyone

Although we will be on the Coral, I have looked at several menus posted by the Live people. I’m finding I can eat GF with many of the starters/appetizers. And many sound really good. I have asked on these boards if I could just eat these for dinner and skip the entree. But it sounds like if I have to order GF meals the night before I might have to pick an entree instead? Or will I get the full menu and then be able to pick? But I have to do everything the day before?

Thank you! It will work out great for me based on seeing some of these menus if I can get like 3-4 of the starters for dinner and skip the main courses. Now if they have GF breads will work out even better. I will try to look at the menus for Crown and the Italian place more closely if we’re supposed to get one thing from each section. And will take advice on the server. Thanks!

Hi so again, sorry haven’t been on a ship this big for 20+ years so don’t know if this is dumb. We have Premier package. When we eat in the MDR can I eat only unlimited appetizers/starters rather than any mains (maybe Premier is irrelevant to this)? The reason I ask is I have been looking at some of the menus the “Live” people are posting, and even though not our ship (we’re on Coral) I notice as someone with dietary restrictions I find 75% of the starters would be great for me to eat. So can I just have a bunch of those and not order a main for my dinner? Sorry so clueless. other thing is when we eat OUTSIDE of the MDR could I do the same if I wanted like with the Crown and the Italian place (Italian on a ship will be harder to do gluten free, ironically unlike Italy itself where it is amazingly easy to eat gluten free)? TIA

I’m not on the ship, just was looking for future reference.

😢 no gluten free pizza…

Thanks this is helpful. Sure wish someone else who has been through this could help as well. I mean I assume there are dairy free “milks” on board that I can get with coffee or room service, but are there? Is there GF toast and bread? Maybe someone who has been through this will see this thread. Thanks for the help, though.
