Diamond Plus and 3 Night Dining Package

[little britain]

As D+ we each get BOGO which we can use on day 1 or 2 of the cruise.

If I buy the 3n dining package I have to use the first of these on day 1 or 2. 

 

Looks like I need to miss out on the 2nd BOGO .... or has anyone been able to delay the first use of the 3n dining package to  day 3 or later?

You may have better luck delaying the 2nd use of the D+ bogo.  We've been able to do that several times.

We have used both the D+ BOGO and 3 night dining package many times however, we wait to book until we're onboard. I'm guessing that if you purchase the package before the cruise, someone at the specialty restaurants could set it up for you. We usually purchase a package from one of the specialty restaurant waiters outside the buffet on embarkation day and they make all of the reservations for us.

I haven't seen the D+ BOGO in my planner. Did Royal do away with that and replace with something else

That's exactly what we do

It's an onboard coupon, you will see it in a letter in your stateroom.

I already pre-bought on the planner as it was discounted!

I'll ask on board for them to move the first reservation to day 3 or 4....fingers crossed!
