GoldCoaster27 Posted December 6, 2018 #1 Share Posted December 6, 2018 First timer, booked on Ovation in April. I only booked 2 days ago but I'm getting a bit concerned at the lack of availability in speciality restaurants. - Only 3 day dining packages left, at $97USD each, which seems to have gone up since yesterday, this doesn't seem great value as for a-la-carte its offering $35 credit. - Many of the restaurants have very few bookings open on the nights I've looked. Am I too late? Be disappointment if I am. At least we got the bev package included in the deal, so we can drown our sorrows! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarea Posted December 6, 2018 #2 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Hard to say if you are too late, but 4 months out is not that far in advance in the cruise world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiwiGal117 Posted December 6, 2018 #3 Share Posted December 6, 2018 In my experience (granted limited) they typically have lots of availability on-board. Unless you want the tappanyaki* (hibachi) tables. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not-enough-cruising Posted December 6, 2018 #4 Share Posted December 6, 2018 4 months is nearly “last minute” for a lot of cruisers who book and plan 12 months or more in advance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kag19 Posted December 6, 2018 #6 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I would recommend to keep checking back, people cancel/change dining reservations all the time. Once you get on board you could ask if there is availability too or ask to be put on a waitlist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cincy2 Posted December 6, 2018 #7 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Keep checking. A couple of weeks ago all the dining packages for my February cruise were gone except ultimate, 3 day and BOGO. Checked today and 4 and 5 night packages are now available again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Scurvy Pirate Posted December 7, 2018 #8 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Mine showed up on the list today as well, but when you actually went to buy them they said "not available". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
