Classic vs Dynamic - Anthem Question

[catgirl8]

My travel agent booked me for Dynamic dining when I requested Classic, and unfortunately she can't change it because RC said "dining has been closed" because we are too close to the sailing. I did not book any restaurants as I thought we were all set, and the only times currently available are around 9:00. What are the chances that RC can change us to Classic dining once I get on board and speak to the dining personnel? I have kids with food allergies, and it would be extremely helpful to have the same waiter each night. I plan on getting to the terminal as early as possible hoping they can switch us. There are 7 people in our party. Thank you for any advice!

Don't know the chances for the change. All you can do is go to the dining room as soon as you board and try to make the change.

 

Also, you don't need a reservation to go to a restaurant. If you have My Time or Dynamic Choice, you can just show up when you want.

There is a thread on the anthem board that has talk of them doing away with the dynamic and going to all classic. Or that there will be 2 dining rooms for classic and 2 for dynamic. Our cruise is in June and right now it seems like the dining is up in the air as far as what they plan on doing and when.

The plan is to take the four dining rooms, and two of them will be traditional, set-time dining and two will be My Time Dining.

Do you know when this is going to happen or is it still in the planning/discussion stages

Last I heard, it was due to start in May, but that was not an official announcement from Royal. Royal has issued their usual announcement for major changes ... crickets.

Lol thanks Bob...

 

Gotta say, I am a bit disappointed. I spent countless hours explaining it to my sisters, then hours in my cruise planner only to have to call RCI and have them fix it. And now I hear I may have done all that for NOTHING! UGH
