cruisesusie Posted August 14, 2011 #1 Share Posted August 14, 2011 Hi, Does anyone know if lunch is offered in the MDR on embarkation day on the Caribbean Princess? We're on the September 3 sailing. Thanks, Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alessandrina Posted August 14, 2011 #2 Share Posted August 14, 2011 We did have lunch on CB in the Dining Room on embarkation day last month. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeBeGone Posted August 14, 2011 #4 Share Posted August 14, 2011 But it's only from noon until 1:00, not 1:01. They'll try to tell you to use the buffet so you have to stand your ground and tell them that you know they are servinng lunch and you wish to be seated.

Had no problem getting into the dining room for lunch. We were just asked, "table for two"? It was wonderful to not have to deal with the crowd on the lido deck on embarkation day. I enjoyed salmon and the tranquility that eating in the dining room provided. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've heard others say the same thing, stand your ground. What is it you actually DO to do that? :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it you actually DO to do that? :confused: Had no issue with this on the CB. Easily resolved if there is an issue. Take the standard issue PrincessPatter from your stateroom. Stateroom should be ready for entry. If not get a copy from your steward who should be nearby if staterooms are not ready. Patter states in black and white on the last page Coral Dining Room Noon-1:30pm (Lunch). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Astro Flyer Posted August 15, 2011 #10 Share Posted August 15, 2011 I've heard others say the same thing, stand your ground. What is it you actually DO to do that? :confused: The embarkation lunch invitation is in online material (Cruise Answer Book & FAQ) & even if it's not in the Patter (I've experienced it) then on the back of the new ship deck plan map is the invitation also.

Rockymountainsparky Posted August 16, 2011 #11 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Patter states in black and white on the last page Coral Dining Room Noon-1:30pm (Lunch). I always thought it was in blue and white.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare karatemom2 Posted August 16, 2011 #12 Share Posted August 16, 2011 Its always been Noon to 1:30 when we sailed.Has this changed? It was Noon to 1:30 just a few weeks ago when we sailed on the Caribbean Princess. We were there just after Noon and were one of the first to be seated. It got continually busier while we dined and when we left after 1 p.m. people were still being seated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
