Is upgrading to the Reserve Collection Mini Suite worth the additional charges?

We have quite the dilemma.  We are booked in a mid ship accessible mini suite.  Reserve Collection was not available for our accessible stateroom.  Our friends are in a full suite and they obviously have RC privileges which include dining.  There doesn't seem to be a way to add RC to our booking.  It appears that you can only do RC in a handful of pre-selected staterooms that are not accessible.  We are already paying extra for our mid ship location.  Is there a way to pay extra for the RC dining privileges?  I can't find any options for it anywhere.  Thanks in advance.

You can't add it.  But there are accessible Reserve mini's available. We had one on Regal last fall.

We've never had a problem getting the same table and wait staff each night in normal Anytime dining.  Tried what is now call Reserve once and the extra menu item never appealed to us and still got the same table each night.  At one point they used half the single Anytime dining room for fixed first seating and then also cut out another quarter for Club (Reserve) Class.  With only 1/4 of the dining room left for Anytime it was slower to get in.  Now it doesn't make much difference since Princess no longer has fixed seating dining.

But they will soon!

Just in case there is someone who *might* be mislead by the title of this thread (Is upgrading to the Reserve Collection Mini Suite worth the additional charges?)...you cannot "upgrade" to Reserve Collection (formerly known as Club Class).  You *cannot* do any type of "add-on" purchase to add the perks.  If you are already booked into a different type of cabin, you would have to cancel/re-book to get a Reserve Collection Mini Suite.

Unless you bid on a Reserve Collection Mini and get it.  We had a mini and upgraded to a Reserve mini.

Do you really need accessible if you have a minisuite? Get regular & buy reserve class.

Nope...can't do that.  If you need accessible you need a roll in shower with a seat as opposed to a tub or a traditional shower.

It is very sad that Princess does not offer a Reserved Collection Accessible Mini Suite.  Sometimes an accessible suite is out of range for some.  

We had one.

On the Majestic, Baja and Aloha 432 and 433 are Accessible. The staterooms and balconies are huge with a stall shower. 

Also on Regal.
