No exact day. Just keep checking. Its frustrating I know!

I see you are in the UK.

Maybe that's when it opens up for you folks.

I know your rules/ dates can be different from US/Canadian passengers for some reason.

I was able to book my time dining reservations today for our Feb 2015 Cruise. Which I found odd because its 145 days away! I was going to start checking at the 90 mark like usual.

 

I only stumbled upon it because I went on to buy a Beverage package.

I am booked on a 5 Jan 2015 cruise and received an e mail today regarding dinner reservations. I am offered 20% off for 3, 25% off for 4 and 30% off for 5 or more reservations. The offer may be linked to my C&A membership since that was on the e mail.

I was first told 60-90 days, then 59. We are now 46 days out and it is still not open. Got an email tonight offering specialty dining discounts. Go on line guess what still not open!! I am as I type this now on hold for 44 minutes with the cruise planning desk which is my fourth phone call. To again I am sure be told that the calendar has still not been loaded. Royal's customer service has gone down hill big time!! Can't wait for the Dynamic Dining.

I sail January 11th and our reservations opened up a couple days ago. I really think there is no set time frame. Entertainment reservations aren't available yet though. Would be a lot easier to decide on dining times if I knew what time the shows are!

Ours opened yesterday for the FOS 12/21/14

When I went on yesterday MTD and Specialty Restaurants were available for our Feb 8th Allure Sailing. I'm not sure when the bookings opened up because I didn't log on to my Cruise Planner for a couple of weeks. But I found it odd that it was all available at 145 days before our cruise.

After posting the above comment I went back to the e mail and clicked on "Reserve Now". I got a message I am unable to make reservations at this time. I called RCI and was advised this is an e mail that goes out early but cannot be completed this far in advance. No rational for sending out the e mail if the offer can't be used this early. I was advised the offer will still be valid if I make reservations on the ship. I will print the e mail and take with me to ensure the offer is honored.

We still can't make any dining reservations for our Nov.1 cruise on the Explorer.

We are cruising on the Jewel of the Seas November 27th, 2014, and have already made 2 Specialty Dinner Reservations 2 weeks ago.

Sailing on the 12/14 Allure Cruise and our speciality dining opened up on Saturday at 92 days out. Im surprised yours is not yet available. I checked daily to see if dining had opened because I knew it would be about 90 days out.

The dinner reservations for our Nov. cruise just became available this week. About 45 days out.
