Dinner questions

[RedRox]

Hi all,

 

we are sailing on the reflection 4 nights in July. We selected any time dining, but see an option to either arrive whenever we like for dining, or pick specific times each night. Few questions as we have never sailed celebrity before:

1) should we expect a shorter wait if we select. Specific time each night rather than arriving without a set time?

2) if we choose a set time, what is recommended so that we don’t miss the shows each night?

 

thanks!

The shows are 7 and 9 pm. Longer wait times (but not long wait) happen at prime dining times. We generally like making reservations for ou dining time, but change the reservation onboard if our day turns out differently than we thought.

We always have Anytime Dining and try to book for 7 p.m. each night - do it online months in advance of the cruise.   That gives us lots of time to make the 9 p.m. show.  On our upcoming Connie cruise all could get most nights was 6:45 which is fine for us.

Thanks all! How long are the shows? Do we need reservations, or just show up? Do we need to be early? On reflection ship, is there more than one show option? Or just one show/one theater? Does anyone happen to know which show it is? And is it likely

ro to change between now and July?

Shows are typically about 45 minutes.  No reservations, just show up 5-10 minutes ahead of showtime and you can pretty much pick your seat.  Just one show (but performed twice each night) in one theatre.

The shows and most music sets are 50 minutes which give you time to get to the next event.

Very helpful. Thanks. What other evening entertainment should we expect?

Sometimes there is a late night (10:30) comedy show in the main theater or Celebrity Central (smaller theater). No reservations needed. Each night is a different show at 7 and repeated at 9. No reservations.  There are different things around the ship as well like Silent Disco,  and bands in venues around the ship which will be published in the Celebrity Today and on the app.

There are several production shows during the cruise ( a 7 night generally has 2 or 3). The rest are musical or comedy acts.
