Hi there!
I'm taking the crossing next week from Red Hook (where I live, actually) to Southampton on the Queen Mary 2 with my partner and a bunch of friends; we're celebrating the impending darkness of my middle age, lol, as I'm turning 40 on January 8th. I was just upgraded for free from Britannia to Britannia Club, which is great, but the rest of my group was not (so far). The whole point was to eat together, so I'm a little worried it will now be complicated to eat in the main Britannia dining room when me and my partner are assigned to Club. Does anyone have any recent experience with this? It's unclear to me if it's the kind of thing where we can all just show up and get seated in the main restaurant, or if it's something I need to pre-arrange, or if it's even possible.
