lrcruising Posted October 11, 2012 #1 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Does anyone know when you can book the culinary classes before the cruise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LEESRE Posted October 11, 2012 #2 Share Posted October 11, 2012 We found that you could book when you book your speciality restaurants, so depends on which grade of cabin you are in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypercafe Posted October 11, 2012 #3 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I have a trip coming on March 18 and I just booked the class. We only have a ocean view room. I think I read where it is 180 days out, same as shore ex. altho I am new to O. All I can say for sure I have booked and paid for the shore ex and culinary class I wanted.

Rare LHT28 Posted October 11, 2012 #4 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Does anyone know when you can book the culinary classes before the cruise? You can book then as soon as they are available for your cruise You must pay at the time of booking Check on O website under "already booked" to see if they are available for your sailing Enjoy Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dbedros Posted October 11, 2012 #5 Share Posted October 11, 2012 If you really want to get a jump on this check frequently as there does not seem to be a set time for the classes to open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gui888 Posted October 11, 2012 #6 Share Posted October 11, 2012 We are leaving in a month and the classes just became available. I was checking every day, lol! However, some of the classes have no descriptions at all, just the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare ronrick1943 Posted October 11, 2012 #7 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I don't think they have a time line to book. We're on a Jan 16 cruise, in a suite and booked dining a week ago, and we just were able to book the cooking class last night. Same thing happened on another cruise but it was four weeks after booking dining. But it's a lot of fun and you learn something besides-so keep trying to book.

Tansy Mews Posted October 11, 2012 #8 Share Posted October 11, 2012 For our upcoming cruise, the classes with no description seemed to be duplicate - at least other sessions had the same time and date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pacheco18 Posted October 11, 2012 #9 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Never mind the description! They are all great! IMO the teaching kitchen is best part of the newer O ships. Just fabulous. These classes do sell out so book early if you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gui888 Posted October 12, 2012 #10 Share Posted October 12, 2012 Two questions: 1. Do they still give you the "poofy" chef's hat? 2. If they do, do you get to keep it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted October 12, 2012 #11 Share Posted October 12, 2012 The website has the descriptions for most of the classes http://www.oceaniacruises.com/ships/riviera/lifestyle/bonappetit.aspx Of course they may change for 2013 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare LHT28 Posted October 12, 2012 #13 Share Posted October 12, 2012 These are not the classes listed for our November cruise. Many are probably new. Some of them are listed on our March cruise so I wrongly assumed they may be on other cruises Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joan24 Posted October 12, 2012 #14 Share Posted October 12, 2012 We are on Riviera, March 4, 2013. The culinary classes are up and ready to book. We booked one yesterday. Some of the classes, such as desserts have no description. The majority of the classes on our Caribbean cruise are on sea days. Some are at 4:00 pm in port. It looked like a good selection. This is our first cruise on one of the "big" ships, did 4 others on R class ships. We signed up for the fish class, exciting, right? We live in Boynton Beach, Fl and tend to eat fish often. Has anyone taken a dessert or pasta class? There is always some way to add to my cruise calories. Joan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
