Dining on the Allure

[Celine77]

Hello,

We just booked on the Allure and noticed that we were assigned my time dining. We would prefer traditional dining as I have 2 little ones and we like things set at a specific time and we plan round that. When I called in to change it to traditional dining, I was told none was available and the we would be put on a wait list. I don't understand this how all the traditional dining spots are at full capacity and there is still 6 months until the cruise? Can soomeone explain this to me pls. Thanks!

You can eat at the same time every night with mtd, even get the same table

The way I got it explained was thee are an allotted number of Traditional dining times, and often travel agencies will book a large number of cabins and assign them the traditional times, so when people start booking those cabins and changing the dining time associated with them spaces open.

I booked the Allure 14 months in advance and it was the same way then.

 

The good thing for me is that I wanted MTD.

 

Good Luck:)

Not unusual. Sometimes it's MTD that's booked up months in advance.

 

However, the fact that they put you on the wait list is a plus.You may find you clear the wait list around final payment time.

As a previous poster said, just book table for the same time each night. Same affect. Actually on an Oasis class ships, I find the flexibility of different times is convenient, because the times of the shows change each night.
