Maysea

We had reservations and were told to always go to the port side. We heard them asking people without reservations to wait on the starboard side. We had asked for a table away from the crowds and were given the same one every night. It was beside the railing near the staircase in the dining room so we had a great view of upstairs and downstairs. They would fill-in deck 3 empty tables with anytime dining guests. The OP is probably on board by now and will find out soon enough how the system works. It is a beautiful sunny day here in Vancouver! Have a great cruise!

We were just on the Eclipse a few weeks ago and had anytime dining. To answer OP’s questions, anytime dining is on deck 4. Port side is for reservations and starboard is for walk ups. We noticed that they would occasionally bring people down to deck 3 MDR to fill in empty tables.

Yes, the do carry Clinique as well as Estée Lauder, Dior, Lancôme and Chanel. They carry a very small selection of each brand and of that, many things were out of stock.

We just got off of Eclipse on Aug 7th. The cosmetics on board were very limited with all the brands. I had quite a bit of OBC and couldn’t find much to spend it on! I did notice one or two Lancôme cleansers, sorry can’t recall which ones they were. If it were me, I would buy a new cleanser and just bring that one on the ship and finish my old one after I get back home.
