Nursery Reservations

[Pigwie]

I know there is a limit to how many hours you can reserve at the nursery in advance. I think it's something like 10 hours? Is that per child or total between our 2 kids?

Also can you book more time once onboard? Is it usually full?

Thanks!

It’s 15 hours per child ahead of time. Aside from our sailing next month, I’ve never booked the nursery ahead of time. I always booked same day or did drop in. Only one time have they been full when I tried to drop in and they told me to come back 30 minutes later and they could get her in. I should add that I never tried around dinner/show time and I could see those booking up.

I believe the number of hours you can pre-book varies based on length of cruise -- with longer cruises allowing more hours, shorter cruises fewer hours. The intent is to make sure everyone has access to some hours in advance. Once onboard you may book more depending on availability. Based on reports, it seems that isn't usually much of a problem. Though as PP mentions if you want dinner hour every night, you may need to pre-book that instead of expecting to get it onboard.

The hours should be per-child, assuming you have more than 1 who is nursery age. You do not need to book Club/Lab time for kids age 3+.
