mcmarya Posted September 29 #1 Share Posted September 29 I thought I read somewhere recently that on some ships, dinner is from 6 - 9 pm instead of 7 - 9. Has anyone experienced this? If so, are there still lectures, Liars' Club or pre-dinner shows at 6:15 pm? Just curious. Also, is Seabourn Square now closed after 6 pm (for coffee/snacks)? Thanks!

stan01 Posted September 29 #2 Share Posted September 29 Those changes have been reported, but not clear whether that will be every cruise on every ship or if the ships will still have the flexibility to make changes specific to the itinerary or staffing levels on the ship. I think a number of passengers will be happy to begin their dinners earlier and that might also reduce some of the overcrowding in the bars before dinner as well.

mcmarya Posted September 29 Author #9 Share Posted September 29 My husband particularly dislikes the 7 pm dinner time so hope this is permanent. He is curious about the 6:15 "Conversations" since he occasionally has to do them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SLSD Posted September 29 #10 Share Posted September 29 I have found that few things are ever permanent when it comes to dining on the Seabourn ships. For example, in 2023, we were told when aboard Ovation that as of that cruise and across the entire fleet the MDR was going to be open every day for breakfast and lunch. The manager of the MDR told me that. He told other people as well. It turned out not to be the case. I have no doubt that the manager of the MDR had been told this---but then another decision was made. It is a bit weird to walk into the MDR at 7pm and find it almost totally filled. This happened when the new opening time became 6pm in the middle of our 28 days cruise. Is it permanent? Who knows!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tv24 Posted September 30 #12 Share Posted September 30 On our long Grand Voyage on the Quest, the opening hour at the Restaurant changed. It was 7:00 but it got moved up at the request of PAX. The opening at the Collonade was 6:00. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
