diskids2 Posted May 21, 2014 #1 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Hi All! We will be getting ready to pre book dining for our cruise. We have four rooms with 7 people. Everyone has the UDP. We plan on booking the Cirque show for the first night as well. 1. Can I go online and book a restaurant and time for 7 people, even though I only have 2 in my room? 2. If we have to book separately, how do we let them know that we are all one party? 3. If we pre-book the cirque show, do we pay for it and are then credited or does the system recognize that we are on the UDP and not charge us? 4. This is our first cruise so if I haven't asked something or asked it in a wrong way...forgive me...I'm learning! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will all be under your name, and you simply type how many in the party. You can select up to 8, but people report difficulties sometimes getting an odd number. Better luck if you make your reservation very early. It doesn't ask for names or anything, you just choose how many people under your own name. As far as the Cirque show, that one is booked under individual names. You select the names of the people in your party who are wishing to go. So you will only be able to select the names of those on your own reservation, because the other names won't appear. Yes, the system will recognize UDP and not charge you.

bimmer328 Posted May 21, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 21, 2014 Just returned from being on the Breakaway...one recommendation for you is to print out your Cirque confirmation before you board. I had reserved online for 1st night show since it was included with UDP but when arrived, I was told we didn't have reservations. The woman checking in people was rude and not willing to help and "blamed" me for not printing out the confirmation. I insisted on speaking to the box office manager...explained to him what happened and he ended reserving another night for us since the 1st night was full. He was pleasant to deal with and understanding. We spoke to 3 other couples during the week that had the same issue. So just a thought, you may want to bring a copy of the confirmation just in case. Glad we got to see it, the show was great! Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you book any specialty restaurant for more persons than there are on your cruise reservation, wouldn't you then have to pre-pay for the rest, like you have to do when you book a specialty restaurant and you don't have the UDP? Since the system on myncl probably just will "recognize" 2 persons with UDP on that reservation? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we booked the show the first night, we did have to pay for the 3rd person who does not have UDP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diskids2 Posted June 24, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Does anyone know the cancellation policy for the specialty restuarants when you are on the UDP? We have a reservation for every night. I am not sure of the cancellation policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
