bob278 Posted June 28, 2015 #1 Share Posted June 28, 2015 We got our documents yesterday for our Insignia Montreal-Southampton cruise July 24th (HOORAY! :D). But there is a discrepancy in them and I wonder if I need to contact my TA to follow up. We have four nights reserved in specialty restaurants and they show up in our on-line account and I have confirming e-mails for all four. Since we like to eat fairly early and those times were hard to come by, should I do anything or will I be OK if I take the e-mails and a screen print of the on-line page showing them? This is our first O cruise and I have no clue as to how things work. If this were Celebrity or Azamara I would be much more comfortable with my "hard copy" documentation as I know what is sent out is pretty useless. But They both do have an on-line check-in process with what is de facto a boarding pass. I don't see anything like that with O. Do I just take my documentation to the check-in desk with passports and credit card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare LHT28 Posted June 28, 2015 #2 Share Posted June 28, 2015 (edited) Are your dining times different in the cruise Planner is that what you are saying or is it the Final Cruise summery email that shows different times from your online account??? Did you fill out the personal information page under my account on the Oceania website? It has a place for passport info etc.. Maybe someone who has a current booking can guide you to the correct location in your account Usually you need the Page from the cruise planner or email with your information on it a credit card & passport Lyn Edited June 28, 2015 by LHT28 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything looks good except our specialty restaurants. Well, we still don't have a cabin number but we do have nice luggage tags with a blank area for it to be added. Now that I look closely, I am even more confused. All of our reservations were made by others and should be for 4 people. All four confirming e-mails were for parties of 4. On-line, documentation and e-mails all have what I consider the correct dates/times. My real concern is that 3 of the 5 do not show up at all in the Cruise Planner we received. Here's my situation: uly 25 Polo 6:30 shows on-line w/party of 4 ... no confirming e-mail received ... not in documents July 29 Toscana 7:30 shows on-line w/party of 2 ... confirming e-mail received ... in documents w/party of 4 Aug 1 Toscana shows on-line w/party of 4 ... confirming e-mail received . not in documents Aug 3 Polo 6:30 shows on-line w/party of 2 ... confirming e-mail received ... in documents w/party of 4 Aug 7 Polo 6:30 shows on-line w/party of 4 ... confirming e-mail received ... not in documents I have no idea if we show up on those dates/times if we will be seated or if I should do some follow-up through my TA. I assume O won't talk directly with me about anything since I have a TA. Edited June 28, 2015 by bob278 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would call tomorrow & just confirm your dates, time & number in the party are correct ..they should talk to you but if not your TA can get the info Perhaps others have run into this before & can answer I am sure it will all work out ;) Lyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I have the confirming e-mails for 2 of the 3 that are not in the Cruise Planner, I think the odds are in my favor, but I may giver O a call tomorrow to improve my comfort level. Not having a reservation I think I have in a specialty restaurant is not a very serious problem in the big picture. :D We are looking forward to our first O adventure.

Toranut97 Posted June 28, 2015 #6 Share Posted June 28, 2015 when our friends made reservations for us to join them for dinner on our last cruise (they reserved as they were PH and were were A1), we received a confirming email with both couples' names and cabins on it. You probably would do best to contact guest services by phone, or else ask your TA if s/he is willing to check on it. It can't hurt to check, and you want to start your trip worry-free! Good luck. Others will have more guidance to offer, I am sure. Donna Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mura Posted June 28, 2015 #8 Share Posted June 28, 2015 I think Lyn is right. Even though you're probably okay, calling them will give you ease of mind! July 24th is nearly a month away, why stew about it? I have occasionally not seen our specialty reservations (of course, we don't make many in general) in our docs but everything was okay once we were on board. Also, I have received confirmation emails when I've booked a table for 4 or 6 but when I look at the website, it just says for two. But it's really for the correct number. I don't know why the system does that ... But it's easy enough to call or ask your TA to check it out. I know that the rule seems to be that once you have a TA they won't talk to you ... but I've never had a problem calling O regarding questions about dinner reservations, EVEN when I was having problems making them. Good luck! Mura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bob278 Posted July 2, 2015 Author #9 Share Posted July 2, 2015 All is well. :D Peace of mind has been restored. I called and O sent my TA a new invoice that shows everything as I think it should be and she has forwarded it to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
