gator582 Posted October 27, 2022 #1 Share Posted October 27, 2022 How do you connect your room with a family member's separate room in order to make dinner or show reservations together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djsmrs Posted October 27, 2022 #2 Share Posted October 27, 2022 This can be tough - maybe ask your travel agent... alternatively wait until you're on board. You can link them in the app by adding reservation numbers - or in the cruise planner on a computer might be easier. We have 10 of us in 5 rooms - and we've not really been able to make this work very well, with the exception of chops and izumi. Linking main dining has been impossible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slyster Posted October 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) I linked my brothers reservations with mine by calling RC directly. He had to be on the phone with me to do it though. We made dinner reservations and I was able to check them in online for the cruise too. I am not sure about show reservations, but I would love to know the answer on that because we are going on a cruise again next year. I'll be able to board first with suites and I'm not sure what time he will board. Edited October 27, 2022 by slyster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATSEAMYLIFE Posted October 28, 2022 #4 Share Posted October 28, 2022 I went to my reservation, booked what I wanted, then upon check out it asks if you want to link and make a reservation for another party. You must have their RSVP number to do it. After you do it once it shows up when you do other reservations for other stuff. No need to call a TA.

mets07 Posted October 29, 2022 #5 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I was able to link reservations online just knowing their (my husband's brother and his wife's) reservation numbers. I was just doing it for MTD reservations. I was able to do the MTD reservations for two cruises we are going on with them. Interestingly, in one cruise we are going on with them I can now see their reservation and all related info (their excursions, everything), in the other I just see the dinner reservations. Strange.

Earlier this year we linked reservation with our Son his Fiance cabin specifically for Mdr and we could see their cruise planner items too. Just the other day we booked them on another sailing as a wedding gift and linked the reservation to ours. Will be wondering if we will see their cruise planner items since we are paying for their cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In our cases, they are paying separately but it almost appears in the one case as if I could do anything with their reservation ...... I would prefer not to see it at all other than for the dinner reservation.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jlstwinmommy Posted October 29, 2022 #8 Share Posted October 29, 2022 We have done this on every cruise. Usually cruise with my parents and my sisters family. I book through a TA so she calls and links the reservations. I know the other party has to agree so my sister usually has to call and request to be linked as well (my parents use same TA as me so no issue). We sit together in MDR and have mad Chops reservations together no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found the only way to link us was to call them with my brother on the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I paid for the cabin they didn't need to speak with them to link. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mets07 Posted October 29, 2022 #12 Share Posted October 29, 2022 In my case, I linked reservations by getting the reservation number from my relative and entering it within my reservation on the computer (was not using the app). Our reservations were originally made separately on the phone directly with RC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashland Posted October 29, 2022 #13 Share Posted October 29, 2022 I can easily link in my cruise planner my extended family reservations that I personally booked with RCI using their reservation number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Liljo22 Posted October 29, 2022 #14 Share Posted October 29, 2022 Just log into the Royal website and in the manage my cruise section you can link them. You just need the name, reservation number and birthday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can even purchase items for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think your issue is that you can only book for 8 guests online. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Djsmrs Posted October 31, 2022 #17 Share Posted October 31, 2022 We're all booked in separate rooms.. We have 5 rooms. 2 guests per room - so the 8 guest rule isn't an issue. Plus we used a travel agent. But this has been an issue when we've had only 2 or 3 rooms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has never been an issue when I have 4 cabins booked. Can access them all on my cruise planner. No TA used. I own the bookings so I can manage what needs to be done.

slyster Posted October 31, 2022 #19 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) If you link reservations, and board first, can you make dinner reservations (dining package) or show reservations for everyone in your group? Or will they need to do that themselves once they board? Edited October 31, 2022 by slyster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tree_skier Posted October 31, 2022 #20 Share Posted October 31, 2022 As others have said, just go into the cruise planner and follow the instructions. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't cruised with multi cabins since the advent of the app. All my multi cabins are in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
