Onboard Activities Sign up - The DIS Discussion Forums

mrstbalt · 11-14-2009, 08:17 AM

I know there are some activities like art of the appetizer, wine/beer tasting, cake plate decorating..etc. Do you sign up for those when you get on the ship or do you
sign up for these things daily? Are there any special activities during the holiday season?
Thanks a bunch

Some of the activities you just show up for, no signing up necessary -- the art of entertaining series (i.e. cake/plate decorating, appetizers, entrees, etc.) and the other adult series (one about the ship, one about the theater).

Some activities you do have to sign up for and get tickets. Free things like the galley tour, tea with Wendy/Alice. And all things that have a cost have to be signed up for (i.e. beer, wine, tequila and martini tastings). Sign up for these at Guest Services starting when you board the ship up until the time of the activity. (But if you wait, some things can be full.)

Can you find out about these activities in advance of the cruise, or do you only find out about them once you get there?

Well, you just found out about them in advance by reading the boards. You'll find out the specific times after boarding; you can stop at GS and ask on the day you board, or wait till you see it in the Navigator. If you want Tea with Alice, you'll want to get those tickets on day one.

The exact schedule (time and date) is what I meant.

So there is no signing up for these activities until after boarding. Thanks for the info. Just wanted to make sure we couldn't sign up for these ahead of time like shore excursions.

Best you can do is look at old navigators for dates and times. Things tend to be generally the same. Nope, for all of these things, you wait until you are on board to get the tickets so no preplanning necessary. Once you are on board, you will be given the cruise navigator (highlights all the big events for the week). In that will be a listing for what day things like martini, beer, wine tastings are. So you'll know right away which days these things are happening. When you go to GS they'll get you the tickets that give you the exact time.
