Rare mduffy1834 Posted January 9, 2020 #1 Share Posted January 9, 2020 Will be on my second NCL cruise (1st on was on Majesty - 4 days). We will be on the Epic TA and can't wait for this adventure. We got the 3 day specialty dining. I managed to make some reservations on-line. Will NCL know that I am using my specialty dining package or do I need to tell them when we get there? Also, wanted to get a reservation at Cagney's, but nothing was available before 9pm (wait too late for my old body). Will I have any luck once on board? Any other suggestions for making this cruise run smoothly would be greatly appreciated. Anything not to be missed? Anything to avoid? Sorry if this has been covered, but I tried to search and came up with a lot of nothing. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlabs03 Posted January 10, 2020 #2 Share Posted January 10, 2020 When you dine they will ask if you are using dining package or not, so just tell them then. Also you should be able to get reservation onboard but I recommend to make the reservation right when you get onboard. They do hold back a certain percentage of reservations for onboard booking.

worktocruise610 Posted January 10, 2020 #3 Share Posted January 10, 2020 try to log in to MyNCL after you check in at the port, should be able to get their wi-fi, you can make reservations while you're waiting to board... a tip I got from CC & it worked great for us, also no worries to get them done when we boarded... have a great cruise!!!

Rare mduffy1834 Posted January 11, 2020 Author #4 Share Posted January 11, 2020 Thanks for the info. I tried to make reservations at Cagneys, but they only offered a table for 1 at the time/date I wanted. So, I booked it. Will I be able to change it to a table for 2 once on board? If not, looks like hubby will be dining in the main dining room alone...lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLAHAM Posted January 11, 2020 #5 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I suspect there will be a good selection of times available at the specialty restaurants when you board. Your TA is two weeks in length, and relatively few passengers buy specialty dining for nine or ten nights or longer. Thus, there will be nights when relatively few passengers wish to use their specialty dining credits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trish1c Posted January 11, 2020 #6 Share Posted January 11, 2020 They reserve some slots for booking on board. If you act promptly once on board or through the app as was suggested above, you should get the reservation you want. Do cancel the reservation for 1 you don't want.
