DaveOKC Posted May 29, 2019 #1 Share Posted May 29, 2019 For what its worth - may be a good deal for some, especially on the ships with a Tamarind. "Great news for foodies: For 3 days only, book any select summer 2019 cruise or Land+Sea Journey and we’ll treat you to three world-class dining experiences. You'll receive one complimentary dinner per person at each of these premium onboard restaurants: Canaletto, with its classic Italian cuisine; Pacific Northwest-inspired Pinnacle Grill; and Pan-Asian Tamarind (where available). Offer ends May 31." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruisin Kay D Posted May 29, 2019 #2 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Where did you find that? Wish they would offer a discounted-cost package to people already booked as a pre-cruising special, like Royal Caribbean does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kevingastreich Posted May 31, 2019 #4 Share Posted May 31, 2019 We just booked this for an Alaska cruise! We were looking at a specific cruise and put it away for a couple of days while we did other things and when we got on the website to actually book it, the sale was on! It was just a stroke of luck. It is the Oosterdam so there is a Tamarind I think? One thing though, does anyone know where on your booking confirmation that the three free dinners are actually noted? I can't find the confirmation. Is it handled at check in? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, in theory you do get a slight discount for buying the package but it's not as deeply discounted as Royal. On the other hand, the cover charges aren't nearly as high as Royal's either. I'm more upset about the title of this thread. I thought that dining packages for existing reservations were on sale, not that they were offering it as a booking bonus on new reservations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I would still call and ask about it, as often HAL will add these smaller packages to existing reservations. Someone on our Sept cruise just got it done yesterday. Never hurts to ask I say.

Jammu2 Posted June 1, 2019 #7 Share Posted June 1, 2019 We were offered a dining package for a (small) discount on our existing upcoming cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadianbear Posted June 1, 2019 #8 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I checked about our Europe October 2020 reservation about this “promo”-would cost $300 more. 😒 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger_77 Posted June 1, 2019 #9 Share Posted June 1, 2019 The email we received also included the "Oceans of Extras" promo with a dine-around package and a $50 beverage card per passenger. It would have cost us an additional $520 for it . . . not happening! Smooth Sailing! 🙂🙂🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveOKC Posted June 1, 2019 Author #10 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Our Oceans of Extra promotion included $300 (for 2) in OBC, dine around package and $50 pp Beverage Cards. Had to give up free grats ($224 value for 2) and pay $50 more pp, so a SLIGHTLY better deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevingastreich Posted June 1, 2019 #11 Share Posted June 1, 2019 I guess we got lucky. The fare was EXACTLY the same with the dining promo as it was before the 3-day sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dining packages being sold on the website are sold at a slight discount. If you buy Pinnacle, Tamarind and Canaletto, you save $10. If you're on Koningsdam on NS and get the package that also includes Sel de Mer and the sushi place, I think the savings is $25 (you pay $30 more but it comes with $45 in credit at the two restaurants).
