speechwriter Posted September 26, 2023 #1 Share Posted September 26, 2023 My wife and I are booked on a Princess Alaska cruise next spring. We will be making a few specialty dining reservations, sharing a table with friends from another stateroom. In order to book one table for all of us, we are making a single reservation (using the Princess app) for the entire party. Will this cause issues when we want to split the charges by stateroom? Do we have to notify the server (or Guest Services) in advance? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may be able to have Guest Services give you a refundable onboard credit for your credit charge and charge your friends, but it may be easier just to have your friends reimburse you directly. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mention making a few SD reservations. Why don't you book the first, and they book the second one? That way no one owes anyone else. You only need worry about a split if you and friends go to SD an odd number of times. If you are booking on board, you are not charged immediately, so just advise the waiter of each cabin number and to chop it up - it's done all the time. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speechwriter Posted September 26, 2023 Author #5 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Thanks for the good info and suggestions. Much better - and more accurate! - responses than when I posted the same question on the Princess website's Live Chat feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
