floralscent Posted October 18, 2023 #1 Share Posted October 18, 2023 Hi everyone! Has anyone used the app to reserve specialty dining once onboard? If yes, is it a smooth process or just easier to go to a podium to book in person? We have a dining pkg and usually go to a podium but noticed the app has a place to reserve once onboard. Thank you!

agape01 Posted October 18, 2023 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I didn't bother to use the app. For my Tuscan Grill reservation for my upcoming cruise, I logged into the Celebrity website and make my reservation through the Plan My Cruise page for the cruise. If I were in your situation, I would first use my above method (which is to go through Plan My Cruise page on the Celebrity website) and then make the reservations that I want. If that didn't work, I would actually take the trouble to call Celebrity to make my reservations. For Specialty Dining reservations, I rather not use the app. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Jim_Iain Posted October 18, 2023 #3 Share Posted October 18, 2023 I've both booked and canceled specialty dining on the app once aboard and was easy and effecient. The app even sends you a reminder of your reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jelayne Posted October 18, 2023 #4 Share Posted October 18, 2023 With the dining package you can't book reservations until you are on the ship. We make that our first stop when boarding if we have a package. I haven't tried booking on the app when on the ship. I think it could be more time consuming if your first choices are not available on the day/time you want and you have to move from restaurant screen to restaurant to see where there is availability.

paulh84 Posted October 18, 2023 #5 Share Posted October 18, 2023 By far use the app when it’s possible. I’ve used it prior to and during a cruise. There is no benefit to calling or standing at their podium which always seems to take 15 minutes for an unknown reason. The only way I would do it in person is if you couldn’t make any reservations on the app due to having a dining package. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
