tanyaewa Posted March 4, 2020 #1 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Sailing Scandinavia in September... I have received a specialty dining credit from both my TA and with the promo we booked with. I tried to make reservation but it requires that I post payment to confirm booking. Is there a trick to applying the credits so that I can book ahead of time? Thx Link to post Share on other sites
caribill Posted March 4, 2020 #2 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Nope. All pre-booked reservations must be paid for in advance via credit card. Link to post Share on other sites
tanyaewa Posted March 4, 2020 Author #3 Share Posted March 4, 2020 Well if I do that can I then refund and use credits on-board ? Link to post Share on other sites
WisCruiser2 Posted March 4, 2020 #4 Share Posted March 4, 2020 When we've received Specialty dining from our TA, it's booked for us. A card was in our cabin with the restaurant, date, and time. We've had no problem with calling the Dine Line or going directly to the venue to change to a more preferred place or date. Just wait until you're onboard. Link to post Share on other sites
franktown Posted March 4, 2020 #5 Share Posted March 4, 2020 You cannot use book till you are onboard. Link to post Share on other sites
MaryBethV Posted March 4, 2020 #6 Share Posted March 4, 2020 We also received the card in our room and just called the dine line (as soon as we got in our room) to get reservations on the night/restaurant we wanted. Link to post Share on other sites
MKKruiser Posted March 4, 2020 #7 Share Posted March 4, 2020 I reserved and paid for all my specialty restaurants. I then received a free dining certificate from my travel agent. Any suggestions on how I might exchange that for my paid reservation. Link to post Share on other sites
MaryBethV Posted March 4, 2020 #8 Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) If you are still at least a week out still, I believe you can cancel reservations and get a refund (just like you can with other pre-purchases). Then use your TA certificate onboard. Edited March 4, 2020 by MaryBethV Link to post Share on other sites

voljeep Posted March 4, 2020 #10 Share Posted March 4, 2020 and hopefully if you cancel then book onboard, you can still get your desired day and time … j/s Link to post Share on other sites
Potstech Posted March 4, 2020 #11 Share Posted March 4, 2020 (edited) Instead of trying to use the dine line we just take the card directly to our desired specialty venue and make arrangements there. Much easier and does not require multiple calls to the oft busy dine line. Edited March 4, 2020 by Potstech Link to post Share on other sites
