Breakfast in the Pinnacle Grill

[sail7seas]

If we were to make PG reservations now, before we leave, is our credit card charged now, like shore excursions are charged. What happens then if you want to cancel or change the reservation once at sea?

 

 

If you are a three or four star Mariner and entitled to discount, you will be charged the full amount for any reservations made in advance of boarding. When you actually have your dinner, a credit will be applied to your shipboard account for the discount you are supposed to get. We have never had any problem getting the four star Mariner credit though some here have said they had to chase it down. That has never happened to us.

Once on the ship -- you can change your reservation -- no problems at all.

If you decide to cancel completely -- you will get a refund in the form of Shipboard Credit.

Should you have Shipboard Credit left over at the end of the cruise -- you will be called down to the front desk on disembarkation morning and given it back in cash.

We used to have to ask for it - but this past cruise the discount was automatically applied once we went to the Pinnacle. Very nice:D Assuming the other ships are run like the Maasdam (I know, never assume) it looks like this issue has been fixed.:)

We've never eaten lunch in the PG. Am I correct in thinking there's a charge for that? I would assume it's a different menu than the MDR. We'll need to try it on this next cruise.

 

We have had lunch in the Pinnacle. It is just way too much food for us at lunch.
