RichC Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 Hi everyone, We’re from the U.K. and set to sail on Icon in early Feb. A few questions if anyone can assist. We are sailing with friends in different cabins and have all purchased the unlimited plan, Royal have linked our reservations for dining purposes, but state this is only for main dining. They say it’s impossible to note our request for a common first night courtesy dining reservation together. They say to simply amend this on board when we book the remaining weeks dining reservations. Is that correct? What’s actually included? So the usual suspects of Chops, Giovannis, Hooked and Izumi are included as always. I appreciate supper club carries a surcharge similar to the the chefs table. The $20 per day credit per a la carte venue such as playmakers. Does this also apply to Pier 7 and the top up items at basecamp?, What about Izumi in the Park? RCCL Facebook staff can’t even answer this and have suggested to check once onboard. I think that’s poor from RCCL, to expect a customer to purchase a plan when they can’t confirm what’s actually included!! Similarly, is Captain Jacks included on CocoCay? Any further information greatly received! Thanks so much! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGTLH Posted January 19 Report Share Posted January 19 From the terms of the UDP: Izumi Sushi is a prix fixe menu or $39.99 food credit. Izumi Hibachi is included, with a $15 surcharge. Chef's Table is included, with a $49.99 surcharge. Empire Supper Club is included, with a $130 surcharge. Not valid for: Celebration Table, Izumi in the Park, Chops Grille premium cuts, Main Dining Room premium items, Taste of Royal, Chef's Table, Culinary Activities, and Holiday Celebration Dinners. I think it has been mentioned that Pier 7 and the extra cost items at Basecamp would be covered by the a la carte credit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichC Posted February 1 Author Report Share Posted February 1 @CGTLH Thanks for the reply. I’ve seen the terms online so I guess as you advise that shows no inclusion at Izumi in the Park which is a shame. You’d think that if a venue is not included as an exclusion in the terms, by definition it would be included. However Matt’s latest podcasts states top up items at base camp are excluded as RCL consider this snacks and not dining. l’ve no idea how an excluded burger and fries at base camp differs to that at playmakers! As for Pier 7 still non the wiser. Rang RCL and emailed, may as well not bothered as they haven’t got a clue, which is poor when 10 days from sailing and paid over 1000 bucks for unlimited dining for a family. It seems on icon unlimited is far from unlimited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tjones Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 Can anyone update this thread with what we know now? I've seen in the cruise planner and on Facebook that many of the items previously not included in the UDP are now included, but it would be helpful to have a full list here. Thanks! janderson and Vincent 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Envy Travel Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 This is whats currently posted as i went into my cruise planner and looked under my unlimited dining purchase: (June 15 sailing Icon of the Seas) What's Included Specialty dining for dinner every night of your sailing and lunch on sea days. For venues with a la carte pricing, you’ll receive a $20 food credit — with the exception of Izumi in the Park, where you’ll receive a $10 food credit. Credits can only be used once a day. For ships with Izumi Sushi, you’ll have a choice of a prix fixe menu, or a $39.99 food credit for the a la carte menu. For ships with the following venues, these are included with an additional surcharge: Izumi Hibachi/Teppanyaki — $15 surcharge. Chef's Table — $49.99 surcharge. Empire Supper Club — $130 surcharge. Wonderland by DaDong — $24.99 surcharge. These will be charged once onboard. For applicable sailings, Holiday Celebration Dinners are included with a $49.99 surcharge. This will be charged once onboard. janderson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZBrady Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 "Wonderland by DaDong" making its way onto Icon would be an interesting development! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonderland is fun to try and all but I kind of like that its only on a few ships. Pushes me back to those ships to experience something like that again. Just like the fried cheesecake at 150 Central Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAAAYTOOO Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 $10 for Izumi in the Park ? That’s pathetic janderson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZBrady Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 10 minutes ago, WAAAYTOOO said: $10 for Izumi in the Park ? That’s pathetic Looking at the menu, $10 credit is enough for two rolls or one bubble cone. Should be a good amount of food. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s pathetic How much is the Taiyaki vanilla ice cream with strawberry drizzle and rainbow sprinkles served in an airy bubble cone? I don't even know if $10 would cover that. I don't mind going into Izumi to get food to go but the window would stream line that process much better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janderson Posted May 7 Report Share Posted May 7 23 minutes ago, WAAAYTOOO said: $10 for Izumi in the Park ? That’s pathetic I just looked up a picture Matt had of the menu for Izumi in the Park. it is only $10 for two sushi rolls plus Edamame or seaweed salad, $8 for the hot dishes, and $8 for the bubble comes so it would cover a single to go order if you wanted one or the other. With how much pricing has gone up for the dining package including $20 wouldn't hurt them but I guess it is a for profit company and people keep paying their prices.

Agreed - what I mean to say is: Wild that it is 2024 and Royal still has these weird copy/paste errors in their products. Not surprised but always wild that such a large company that has a good product can fail so often in disseminating correct information effectively. janderson and fireclan 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes I feel like they just use a very vague generic description for everything. Hard to tell what they mean at times and other times its confusing like you just said where they mention something that isn't even on the ship you are sailing on.
