dltodaro Posted September 27, 2022 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I just purchased the the UDP on Symphony. It includes: Unlimited visits to specialty dining restaurants every night of your sailing and lunch on sea days. For restaurants with a la carte pricing, you’ll receive a $20 food credit. For ships with these venues, Teppanyaki/Izumi Hibachi is included, with a $10 surcharge, Chef's Table is included, with a $49.99 surcharge, and Dadong is included, with a $35 surcharge. These will be charged once onboard. Regarding the a la carte restaurants: The $20 credit is per a person? The $20 credit is per a dining? Can you eat at the same a la carte restaurant for lunch and dinner and receive $20 credit for both lunch and dinner? Thank you, Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrProfessor Posted September 27, 2022 #3 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Yes, what Biker19 said - just confirming. The $20 credit for Playmakers, for instance, is per person that purchased the UDP and per visit. So, for two people, you have $40 credit per every visit to Playmakers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Sea Dog Posted September 27, 2022 #4 Share Posted September 27, 2022 What we did on playmakers on Symphony last week is order and once you get close to the limit tell the server before hand you want a second ticket for the rest. In our case the campfire brownie for both of us would put us over our limit so we had the server put the dessert on a separate ticket. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
five. Posted September 27, 2022 #5 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I was on Harmony last week and I wish there was some a la carte pricing for Chops desserts and chips and salsa at Sabor. They were both fantastic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are supposed to be able to do this but I've heard that the ability to actually do this is mixed. We had it on Odyssey last time and didn't try but probably could have.(it's a lot of food, so I wasn't up for it most nights). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you book ahead of time (looks like if I book now I pay $99) or do you have to wait until you embark? I have the UDP and was planning on booking the Chef's Table for NYE. Thanks.

Two things--first, you can't make reservations until you're onboard when you have the UDP. Second, on many ships, there are special dinners at an upcharge from the normal, single purchase price, for nights like NYE. Guessing that would be a no-go for the UDP.

So, if I want to book Chef's Table for lower price (let's ignore NYE) then I've got to wait until I get on the ship. That makes sense! Just like the rest of the restaurants, I suppose. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll begin another visit if I go over 🤭 With the UDP, does anyone know if you're able to make your reservations on the app once you've boarded the ship or do you HAVE to visit a specialty dining location to make all reservations using the UDP? I've read conflicting things. Thanks for any help provided! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danoconnl Posted October 19, 2022 #12 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I was able to change a reservation on the app, but I think it was day 2. I thought the app might be too slow, but it probably would have been faster if I had just done it that way. Dan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
