kat228 Posted November 7, 2014 #1 Share Posted November 7, 2014 I'm looking at booking a 3-night cruise on the Enchantment at the end of February. I'm a little confused because when I go to book it (online, not with a travel agent) it's telling me that my only dining option is "My Time." I've tried selecting to waitlist for traditional dining (late) but that isn't even an option. Would there be some reason the late dining and all other options are booked up? Normally I wouldn't give this a second thought, but we're planning on getting a group of people together for this cruise. I don't want to have to wait for a large table every night...

It's not unusual for various dining options to be booked. If you cannot book what you want in advance, you can try seeing the Maitre D' as soon as you board the ship and asking to be moved to traditional dining, or at least make a standing reservation for your group in My Time.

Rare orville99 Posted November 7, 2014 #3 Share Posted November 7, 2014 We did MTD on Enchantment last fall with a group of 12, and linked all of the reservations together so when we made a dining reservation, it was for the entire group. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kat228 Posted November 10, 2014 Author #4 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Thanks guys! This makes me feel better :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ubiquitous Cruiser Posted November 10, 2014 #5 Share Posted November 10, 2014 And if you make a nightly reservation for your group you will most likely sit at the same table every night anyway ... and not have to wait more than a few minutes. Also note that the reservation time need not be for the same time every night ... just that you make a reservation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkySailing Posted November 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted November 10, 2014 With my last trip which was Enchanment. I found out what My Time Dinning really means. Sailed many times with MYD. But this trip was different. It should be called Their Time Dinning. I was told when I arrived at 6:15 for dinner on the first night (didn't make any reservation) that it wouldn't be till 8:30pm. I asked what the hell is My Time Dinning for then. Had to go to The Concierge which she was very helpful and was very kind exclaiming that there are only enough seats at one time. Instead of just 2 dinner services. MTD has around 6 services. So if you don't make reservations or later and the seats fill up. You will be stuck with what's left. Hope this helps and Happy Sailing!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PR Cruisers Posted November 11, 2014 #9 Share Posted November 11, 2014 All I can remember is Mojo is the first night. And how was your experience in the dining room? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTownNick Posted November 11, 2014 #10 Share Posted November 11, 2014 I personally like Chops Grill the first night and then the Windjammer the last 2 nights. The Windjammer is quieter than the MDR and has a much better selection of food...and the food is really good. Plus, you can go anytime you want and it's a lot quicker if you want it to be.

cruisegirl1 Posted November 11, 2014 #14 Share Posted November 11, 2014 (edited) We enjoy the food on the Enchantment. Even though the menus are the same on all ships, some ships seem to do a better job than others. Our tradition is to try to dine in a specialty restaurant the last evening. We say our good byes to the staff the evening prior and have a quiet dinner to cap off the cruise.

kat228 Posted November 24, 2014 Author #15 Share Posted November 24, 2014 For what it's worth, all dining options are back available for this sailing. Wonder if it was a computer glitch! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
