I guess that was probably hoping for too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pratique Posted June 29, 2019 #85 Share Posted June 29, 2019 More tables in the MDR? Not thinking there is excess capacity right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the new venues are interesting, but between losing so many public areas to cabins and other areas to suite only guests, I find the ship a lot less attractive to sail on than what it was at the beginning. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes we're lucky and get a quiet corner but it's been a long while since that's happened. We would eat there more often otherwise. Now it's down to once per cruise if that.

We eat MTD around 5:30 and see lots of practically empty tables. Especially the big ones. It's sad Now the two tops seem a bit crowded. That's the challenge the staff has to deal with. A shift away from traditional communal dining. Edited June 29, 2019 by John&LaLa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
