Lorey2007 Posted May 17, 2015 #1 Share Posted May 17, 2015 Does anyone know how the new promotion "CHOSPD" Choice dining credit will work? Will I be able to use it toward the purchase of the UDP before my cruise, maybe a year out, or will I only be able to use it once on board? The UDP for the 11 night Panama canal cruise on the Pearl is $211 pp. This is from the NCL site: SPECIALTY DINING CREDIT Eat in our speciality restaurants for free with an up to $110 per person Dining Credit. For 7-day cruises, receive $75 per person Dining Credit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basically, this offer is for an Onboard Credit that is restricted in that it can only be used toward specialty restaurant dining charges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I won't be able to purchase UDP before my cruise that stinks. I like to make my dining reservations long before I board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lorey2007 Posted May 18, 2015 Author #5 Share Posted May 18, 2015 Just heard back from the PCC and the Choice Dining credit is just that, a credit that can be used toward specialty dining once you board. It is totally useless if you want to purchase the UDP. I'll be watching for some other kind of promotion hopefully they will have something better down the road.

SeaShark Posted May 19, 2015 #11 Share Posted May 19, 2015 Geez I just wanted to hear it from someone at NCL. Sure, but if you wanted to hear it from NCL, then you should have just asked NCL instead of asking a bunch of people you don't know...

SeaShark Posted May 19, 2015 #13 Share Posted May 19, 2015 We all know how accurate the answers from NCL are! Yet the number of people who still ASK NCL would make one think differently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mistizoom Posted May 21, 2015 #20 Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Back to the original question, if you want to purchase the UDP on this cruise, why not call your NCL or your TA (whichever you booked through) and switch to one of the other promos active at time of booking. Assuming you booked this month, you could get onboard credit or a free wi-fi package or the shore excursions promo. Not as good as the dining credit but it would give you something else for now if you know you want to buy the UDP.
