Speciality Dining Question

[Solent Richard]

Having recently booked my first Azamara cruise for later this year I note on the Voyage planner that I can pre-book a Dining Package by calling a telephone number.

 

The package claims the dining packages...

 

'Let you plan up to five exclusive dining experiences with a delectable 6-course meal paired with perfectly matched wines at an unrivalled value'

 

Two questions please. Is it members experience that when booking these packages one can choose the restaurants and dates one wishes to dine in them and is it as it reads and the wines are included?

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Richard

 

PS The ship is Azamara Onward...

The 6 course meal with wine pairings is a Chef's table reservation.  The other options with the dining packages are meals at Prime C and/or Aqualina.  These are not 6 course wine paired meals (although they could be if you try hard enough😀).  The Chef's table is only offered on certain evenings over the course of your cruise at a large table at the front of Prime C.  You are able to sign up for both the Chef's Tables and the specialty restaurants on embarkation day and they will have a schedule for when the different Chef's tables are offered as well as when White Night and the Azamazing evening will be.  

Early indications seem to be that when the new website launches later this month you will be able to purchase the packages online.  However, it's not clear if you will be able to make reservations ahead of time.

I don’t believe that reservations will be available before you board the ship, regardless of any opportunity to purchase pre cruise.  Enjoy your cruise!

The Chefs Table includes wines paired with the food. The wines that are included in your cruise fare are served in both of the speciality restaurants.

Thank you most kindly. A comprehensive explanation.
