So they actually sell the packages on board ?  I had thought that they just didn't any packages at all on holiday sailings.  I will have to check and see when I get on NAV For Thanksgiving.

I know what you mean about wasting your time !  UGH

That was she said to book on board but I think another wrong info I received.

B2B wow ❤❤❤  hear a lot of great reviews about MEI. Now I wish I booked with MEI.

Even when you call they either lie or don't know.  They told me that for our Thanksgiving cruise the dining packages were "sold out".  I just laughed.  I think they just don't have a clue.

LOL that was they told me "sold out" on Sunday morning then ask me to call today in case someone cancels. Today I called and the person on the phone knows so she told me because it is Thanksgiving holiday cruise dining package is not available for reservation online. I don't have a problem if they do not offer the package. However, they should not send an email like that to customers. I just wasted 1 hour of my time call in twice. 

What is MEI? is this what you guys talking about https://mei-travel.com/ ?

Perhaps you received a generic email?  I have no dining packages on my holiday sailing either.  Best to call to get confirmation.

Anthem of The Seas November 17

I just surprised to receive the email as well. However, when I go to the cruise planner and want to see how I can reserve it. I do not see the package available in my Cruise planer. So if I decide to reserve the package how I do that. Call RCL?? 

Hello All,

I will be on the Anthem of The Seas on November 17-25. (Thanksgiving week). I have never dined in any specialty restaurant before. I have questions about the Ultimate Dining Package. I receive the email from the marketing with details below.

3 restaurants @ $85

4 restaurants @ $100

5 restaurants @ $115

My questions are.

Do these prices option above good price?

Do all of these restaurants include in the package to choose (Chop Grille, Wonderland, Jamie, Isumi & Chef's Table)?

Does the dining package menu be the same as buying dining individually or difference menu?  

What is your experience with special dining package?  

Thank you in advance for your answers.

I just check the pricing on 7 days Bermuda Cruise from Baltimore sailing date 4/17/19 for 2 adults and 1 6 yrs old. OSC = Onboard spending credit
Without putting any Crown & anchor # this is the price per person
interior $615 & OSC $125
Ocean View $645 & OSC $125
Balcony $1100 & OSC $225
Suite $1227 & OSC $225

With my Crown & anchor # Diamond status
interior $615 & OSC $125
Ocean View $645 & OSC 
Balcony $1025 & OSC $100
Suite $1152 & OSC $100

If it is truly discount for member why Royal Caribbean take the $125 off the OSC after I include the membership #. Anyone know or notice this before????

I am talking about just a tips for dining room services. I still pay other tips and believe me I will need a lot of drink with 5 years olds. 

We will cruise at the end of March 2018. We used to use dining room service and paid all tips. However, this time we might not do it because we have really active 5 years old. So we decided to just get the food and go. Anyway, RCI will charge tips for dining services that we will not be using. Is it possible to take all the tips for 3 of us out? Anyone have any experience about this?
