Dinner reservations

[DShier1a]

Can you make dinner reservations before final payment has been made? I am trying and there is no avail coming up for any restaurant's and it just came avail to book.

It depends on when your cruise is….. they usually load restaurants at least 6 months prior but be aware that sometimes changes are made when they add pop dinners. ie Tamarind in the Pinnacle when there is no Tamarind restaurant onboard.

Simple answer is yes. We have dinner reservations for our March cruise, made a couple months ago, and final payment is still two weeks away.

Our specialty dining came online about 7 months prior to our sailing date.

Are you asking about dinner reservations for the main dining room? 
If so, and you want fixed dining, that should be requested by your travel agent. If you are asking about reservations for open seating in the dining room, then that will have to wait until you are on board. 

Specialty dining reservations have been explained by others already.

I am trying yo reserve specialty dinning since we have a credit to use. It finally says reservations avail, but when I go in and select our names and click " use complimentary dinning" there are no days.... They are all grey. .I guess I can email the Lady at Holland America who help with my reservation. Thanks all.

Can you select any times? When is your cruise?

[DShier1a]

No, there are no times to select. Cruise is May 5 2024

Problem solved....I think it is just too early. I had put an earlier cruise on hold and then decided to let it go....the dinner reservations available tag was left over from that cruise. I logged out of the app and back in. Seems things are correct for my booked sailing now.

Agree- you are one to maybe 2 months early.
