So we knew 2 weeks before boarding exactly where our table was. I have never in 28 cruises not had a response of some kind. I would post the document they sent here but I've already deleted it from my cruise confirmation file. We used to back in the day sit at large tables of strangers, it was fun then for a while, but it slowed down our meals so much because of casual conversations, we never finished. After we got to be Emerald or so, we just quit that and from that day on have always requested and always had them honored with an email and I got that email addie right here on these boards, then collected others for the individuals I gave addies for. We do cruise with cruise buds often and at one time 16 members of family reunion and RCCL always delivered. Don't understand why those of you who haven't gotten results are having this problem...all I can report is our experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welovetahiti Posted February 22, 2023 #54 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Did you have to split your group into two tables of 8? I’m hoping my group of 12 will be accommodated at one table when we sail on the Odyssey next month. We have traditional late dining. Thanks for providing the addresses so that I can make my request in writing. Any recommendations for a particular dining area or location is appreciated.

Rare BecciBoo Posted February 22, 2023 #55 Share Posted February 22, 2023 Yes but they were back to back and we just switched chairs every night to get to visit with everybody, the two tables were at the back of the lower dining room and at the window, very good location and quiet. I wouldn't bank on a 12 top. And anyway, how can one converse at that long a table without yelling! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We almost always cruise with friends/family, sometimes as many as 12 people. We used to all sit at one table but found it impossible to have a conversation with everyone. We now request tables no larger than 6. When we have 2 tables, we move around and sit at different spots with different people from our group each night. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there another email or another way to request a table for 2? They don't always respond the same way to your requests. I think it's because different dining teams (different ships) handle them differently: - When we cruised Explorer in October I emailed about a specific, unique dining need. Their team responded ASAP and gave us exactly what we needed. - When we cruised Indy in December I emailed about the same specific, unique dining need. No one answered, and we were assigned to an MDR table that didn't work for us. Once on board, I went to the MDR ... supervisor? and he immediately switched us to an ideal table. They definitely took care of us, but that two-weeks-ahead email was wasted effort. Having said that, I have a "cruise template" that I made for us -- it includes our checklist of "must dos" and our packing list. I still have a line item for "Email MDR dining team", but my expectations are lower now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On my December 4 Oasis sail there was a large table of at least 16+ diners set up. Early traditional dining on the 4th deck dining room and set up as you enter the restaurant. You could not miss it as you enter or exit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OP and I are examples of at least two people experiencing total silence. I too received a response 9 months ago, and my post is RCLs answer from today for why it won't be honored. Maybe it is bunk! I hope it's bunk! I wish I had the same experience as you, but I just have a string of unanswered emails and that bunk from their phone "dining team" customer service today I have not had a response for a table request either...

I would try for a large table on the second or third level along the balcony railing. A table for 10 is as large as they get, but we had a table for 6 and they let two more sit in. As others have said it is almost impossible to converse at a very large table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
funfetti Posted February 26, 2023 #63 Share Posted February 26, 2023 I'd like to give credit to Royal: they did fix our dining time before our sailing. We didn't receive an email about it, it just showed up in the app. It's a huge relief to not have to start off a vacation pleading with customer service. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare BecciBoo Posted March 13, 2023 #65 Share Posted March 13, 2023 (edited) It worked in December, my last cruise and again, they sent the actual page with seating arrangement.. Checking it out right now. She may have vacated that position. Sent an email, no invalid notice as yet after 10 minutes. I also use this one: NV_RestaurantOperationsCoordinator@rccl.com The initials at the beginning are for Navigator, you use initials of the ship you are cruising, but not all of them are straight forward, you'll have to try a few... I know some of them. Usually the first letters of the ship. But I wouldn't try that method until a week or two before you go I.E.: Use abbreviations of ships name I.E. VG for Voyager etc. MR Mariner RA Radiance FR Freedom Edited March 13, 2023 by BecciBoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jencruzin Posted March 14, 2023 #69 Share Posted March 14, 2023 We typically wait a week before the cruise and always ask for a table seating 10 near the windows. We love meeting new people this way, and they've honored it for us each and every single time! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for providing the addresses so that I can make my request in writing. Any recommendations for a particular dining area or location is appreciated. We regularly sail with a group of 10-12 people and have found it to be a lot better if they split us into two tables. With that many people you cannot have any conversations you are out of earshot of many people. Two smaller tables work a lot better. We just rotate who sits at each one every night.
