Av8tor Posted January 12, 2016 #1 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Do suite guests get any boarding priority (on Westie)? If so, does it apply to Signature Suites or only Neptune and Pinnacle? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taxmantoo Posted January 12, 2016 #2 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Only Neptune and Pinnacle Suite passengers benefit from priority boarding for being in a suite PLUS all 4-star and 5-star Mariners occupying any cabin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krazy Kruizers Posted January 12, 2016 #3 Share Posted January 12, 2016 First people on will be the wheelchair people. Priority boarding is next for the PS suites, Neptune Suites and 4 and 5 Star Mariners. All others are given numbers and board when their number is called.

Randyk47 Posted January 12, 2016 #6 Share Posted January 12, 2016 There were so many people qualifying for priority boarding on our last Maasdam cruise my wife and I laughed about it. It seemed half the ship was in our early group. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richarduk Posted January 12, 2016 #8 Share Posted January 12, 2016 Exactly. :D There is no real 'priority' boarding or tendering at this point. I understand that in the scenario it did not prove to be much of a benefit, however, we have embarked upon a few cruises whereby it has made a real difference. It just varies depending on all passengers and their needs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimd909 Posted January 13, 2016 #9 Share Posted January 13, 2016 I thought those in a Pinnacle Suite (PS) were escorted to their room. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sail7seas Posted January 13, 2016 #10 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) I thought those in a Pinnacle Suite (PS) were escorted to their room. Most of the time, that is the case with some exception. I've seen escorted boarding for Pinnacle Suite with Hotel Director, Guest Relations Manager, Concerige.... and sometimes no one. It really isn't such a big deal. Edited January 13, 2016 by sail7seas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizzardboy Posted January 13, 2016 #11 Share Posted January 13, 2016 (edited) It's when you're escorted from your suite that you need to worry! Note: This thought doesn't reflect a personal experience. Edited January 13, 2016 by blizzardboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickey_mouse Posted January 13, 2016 #12 Share Posted January 13, 2016 We are eyeing a Signature Suite on an upcoming Alaska cruise. It seems to me that Signature Suites are not suites as all, as they don't get many, if not most, of the perks given to Neptune Suites. Why not call Signature Suites "Large Veranda" rooms and get on with it? It just makes it confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Suites starting at..." is a much more attractive offering to shoppers when viewing the Signature Suites' fare versus a Neptune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Vict0riann Posted January 13, 2016 #14 Share Posted January 13, 2016 You do get double "points" when you pay listed price for any room designated as a "suite". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
