Question re linking cruises

[Crazy planning mom]

If you reserve 2 staterooms are they automatically linked?

[Casino Comp Chick]

No, you must tell them to link.

Thank you Casino Chick.

As long as you have the booking numbers and names and dates of birth of the passengers in the other stateroom, you can link them yourself. Then you will be able to make  reservations for everyone in your party. 
I recently did this for friends we will be traveling with.

I would like to link 2 reservations, but it appears we won’t be able to at least for now. The reservations were made with 2 different travel agents about a month apart. We have each others reservation numbers, but the problem lies in that we have early dining and the other couple was not able to get this. Our agent said the reservations are unable to be linked because of dining. We are D+ and they are D. I believe the perks say that D can be put on a priority waitlist. Keeping fingers crossed. (We do not want to change from early dining due to a med condition)

Linking is not just for MDR dining, it could for other things as well. But the TA is right - if you want to sit with the other couple for dinner in the MDR they need to change to fixed dining. Try that first day on board, You could also try to ask for a table for 4 at rcldining@rccl.com about two weeks out and make this request.

Thanks, Biker. We will try your suggestions if they can’t secure a fixed spot

How do you link them, or checked to see if they are linked?

 

Thanks

Have your travel agent call Royal and then have them ask the rep to call over to the dining department and get it changed.  Even when it is showing as not available 9 times out of 10 I am able to get it changed.
