jasmith52 Posted August 22, 2011 #1 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I am on the Splendor. My experience is that the buffet on the day of departure is a zoo. I'd like to avoid it if I can. With that in mind, does anyone know if any dining rooms are open the day of departure. if so what are the hours ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyancho Posted August 22, 2011 #2 Share Posted August 22, 2011 only for dinner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Mach* Posted August 22, 2011 #3 Share Posted August 22, 2011 It MAY be open for lunch. If the ship is near maximum capacity they will open the one of the main dining rooms for lunch to ease the crowding on the Lido Deck... :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
terjul Posted August 22, 2011 #4 Share Posted August 22, 2011 I wonder if you're able to order room service. It would be nice to sit on the balcony and watch everyone board :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrpayroll Posted August 22, 2011 #6 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Only dining room that Carnival opens from what i've heard is SOMETIMES the DREAM.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welldone60 Posted August 22, 2011 #7 Share Posted August 22, 2011 This past Feb on the Dream, one of the MDR was open. We found it after we had ate at the buffet when we were touring the ship. Should have read the capers when we boarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted August 22, 2011 #8 Share Posted August 22, 2011 Room service is not available - it starts about 5pm. (or after the safety briefing) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephillykid Posted August 22, 2011 #9 Share Posted August 22, 2011 On the Dream last week, the MD was closed on embarkment lunch even though the ship was over 100 % capacity. Every cabin was full and there were over 1500 kids on board as well. We were at the park and cruise around 10 am and there were small lines at the buffet around 11:30 when we eventually got up to the buffet. The mongolian always had the longest lines. As has been previously sais on this board, not everyone knows about the italian station on deck 11 and this pretty quiet the 1st lunch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unfdoug Posted August 23, 2011 #10 Share Posted August 23, 2011 The only CCL ship I've sailed where the MDR was open for lunch was Dream and that was both times I was on the ship. All the other ships there was just a maitre d there taking dining requests. No food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
