mpoole3 Posted November 20, 2022 Report Posted November 20, 2022 For my next cruise on Harmony of the Seas, I booked two cabins: JR Suite Solo for myself and inside GTY for my wife and son. We aren't planning to use the inside cabin at all, but it was nearly $500 less to book two cabins with the solo 340 rate for the suite vs all 3 of us in suite. Also 1 DX was a nice perk, but I'll never share my drinks! My question is, can I make a reservation in Coastal Kitchen for my family at dinner or am I eating dinner all by myself?! Quote
AshleyDillo Posted November 20, 2022 Report Posted November 20, 2022 My experience is if you're allowed into CK and you are solo, usually they're seating you at a 2-top anyways so they don't mind if you bring a guest if you ask nicely. Can't hurt to ask! Quote

twangster Posted November 21, 2022 Report Posted November 21, 2022 Definitely maybe. It really depends on the CK host/hostess and what load they are seeing. They are typically hesitant to do much on night one because they don't have a feel for the guest trends that cruise. Sometimes CK is in high demand and sometimes enough suite guests have the UDP or don't use CK for whatever reason. The host/hostess doesn't know on day one if that week is going to be a popular CK week or a slow CK week. I have a suite cruise in December with the UDP and I may not go to CK at all that cruise. Try on day one but take it night by night. Come day 2 or 3 ask again. Allen2 and mpoole3 1 1 Quote

I'm just as comfortable in a non-suite cabin though so I only live the suite life when the numbers look good. Oasis. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote
F1guynz Posted November 21, 2022 Report Posted November 21, 2022 I asked on our last cruise as we knew the headline act but they wouldn’t budge on this. They said it would need to go to the Hotel Director for approval. The silly thing is even though there are only two of us they normally put us on a table for four. Possibly if I was Tom Cruise they would have been more accomodating. WAAAYTOOO 1 Quote
