DCL on points -- pay each time I call to add info to my res?

[epicureangirl]

When I booked my cruise, I was asked which sitting I wanted for dinner, but was not asked how many people I wanted at my table. Would you call to have that noted on the reservation, and if so, is that going to cost me $75 to add that piece of information?

I will be traveling with my in-laws (who I will booking with cash), and will want to make sure we dine together, alone. Hmmm... on second thought, maybe I should find out what the maximum at a table is to liven things up!

They charge $10 per word...

Will you be booking your in-laws directly with DCL? If so when you do just have them link the two reservations together (you will need to give them your name and reservation number to do so). Then ask if you can have a table for X (however many people are in your group).

DCL tries very hard to meet these. When I've cruised with my in-laws in the past and requested a table for 4 we've always gotten it.

Mike... that did make me laugh. I'm thinking that if I travel on points I might even have to pay for the 'extras' -- like a spare roll of toilet paper if I need one!

I was planning on booking through Costco travel.

That should work. Have the travel agent (in this case Costco) link the reservations and put in the request for you. This should be something they are used to doing.

Yes, I had read that in a post a while back. That's why I booked in December - thanks to the OP who saved me $20! That should buy me a couple of pins...
