kdpatte Posted August 16, 2022 #1 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Can anyone tell me how far in advance you can book dining reservations for a 5 day cruise? Is it 120 like longer cruises? They were not open at 120 days so now I don't know when to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casofilia Posted August 16, 2022 #2 Share Posted August 16, 2022 @kdpatte The easiest thing would just to keep trying, there might just be a glitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted August 16, 2022 #3 Share Posted August 16, 2022 It will be 90 days for you ( 6 days or less and not a holiday sailing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyskie Posted August 16, 2022 #4 Share Posted August 16, 2022 FYI, keep checking. We're sailing on the Joy - 5 days - October We've had dining reservations since June 15th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare graphicguy Posted August 16, 2022 #5 Share Posted August 16, 2022 You mean specialty dining, or the MDRs? If it’s the MDRs, just show up. No reservations required. Specialty Dining? 90 days has been my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kdpatte Posted August 17, 2022 Author #6 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Even more confused now than when I posted this. I did an on-line chat with NCL last night who told me it was 120 days even though it was a 5 day cruise. But she also told me because we were a party of 5 I would never be allowed to make them on line anyways and that I would have to make them on board. And I know that isn't true because last time we just made the reservations for 6 since that is all the online system allows you to do. But then she also told me that the reservation system for the PRIMA had a glitch and that was my problem. Guess I am going to have to check every damn day....ugh!!

MyTMo777 Posted August 17, 2022 #7 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Maybe it’s a Prima glitch or special rules on that ship. But we made reservations just after making full payment at 120 days. That’s on the Jewel. I do know that people have had issues reserving for an odd-numbered group, so just reserve for 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you fancy getting more confused then contact NCL again and get a different answer from their random answer generator. If not being confused is your preference then don’t ask them the question in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare KeithJenner Posted August 17, 2022 #9 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Just to clarify one thing though, as I stated earlier reservations are supposed to open at 90 days anyway, so not being able to book yet is as expected. As someone has reported they opening early for them then maybe it is worth checking every now and then, but I wouldn’t stress about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
