Waitlisted?

[redhot77]

Do what does it actually mean for MDR to be waitlisted? I thought i read somewhere that if you have FTtf you can get in quicker?

FTTF does not effect MDR reservations. "Waitlisted" means that whatever your preferred dining choice, early, late or YTD, is full and that you are waitlisted for that. If no openings appear, then you will be assigned another dining slot for the MDR. Some people who were unhappy with their assignment have been successful talking to the dining room staff once aboard for a change.

We were on the Victory the last week of August - this was the only time that we had FTTF (we did buy it because we had to be sure we were off the ship as soon as possible on the last day…). Since we booked this cruise only about 10 days before the cruise (with a casino offer), we were wait listed for YTD. We talked to the Matire D' right after boarding to check on this and, thanks to FTTF, we were able to get Your Time Dining. He told us that they would accommodate the Platinum guests first and then the FTTF people. He also added that this particular cruise had a YTD wait list of well over 400 guests and the YTD was sold out more than 6 months prior to cruising. He also told us that, without the FTTF benefit, we probably would not have been able to switch to YTD. I believe that suite guests are also accommodated with their dining requests. Hope this helps.

FTTF does not effect MDR reservations.

I booked yesterday and was wait listed for 8:15 dining. I already got an email today that I got what I requested. Good luck!

I booked on Sunday and on Monday I had an email from Carnival that my dining time has been approved. Good luck!
