KarenJune Posted May 23, 2006 #1 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Does anyone have any opinion about best seating in the dining room on Explorer of the Seas? I'm guessing near the window, or, is that not such a good idea? Thanks.

wrp96 Posted May 23, 2006 #2 Share Posted May 23, 2006 Unless you have early seating, you won't be able to see much of anything out the windows, and sometimes not even at early seating depending on when you sail. I personally prefer to be in the center of the room, since you can see everything going on in the room. You don't get to choose where you sit in the room though.

KarenJune Posted May 23, 2006 Author #3 Share Posted May 23, 2006 I always thought that was true, but this TA said that she could get us a table near the window. And you would be right about late seating, all you would see would be your reflection. Thanks! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimegge Posted May 27, 2006 #4 Share Posted May 27, 2006 When DH and I sailed we were seated near the window, yes it was pitch black out there, but let me tell you the light reflecting off of the waves was so beautiful that I couldn't help but stare out the window most of dinner. I wish this next cruise we could sit near the window, but we have too many in our party and the TA said we would probably be in the center.

trish1c Posted May 29, 2006 #5 Share Posted May 29, 2006 While inside the ship, if it was moving, as is usually the case during dinner, I felt seasick every time I tried to look out. The last thing I'd want to see while I was trying to eat was movement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimegge Posted June 7, 2006 #6 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Yeah, lol, that might be a problem. I would hate to loose what was eaten, or not eaten. But you could always sit at the other end of the table, you can't see the ocean from there. I switched seats often so other people could sit there. :) Kim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! :) We have been on a bunch of cruises and asked our travel agent to get us a seat by the window and it has not happened yet? Maybe you have to be a member of repeat cruisers club or something. We have been trying out different cruise lines. The only ones we have repeated were Carnival and Royal Caribbean and not because they were the best either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
serene56 Posted June 11, 2006 #8 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Tables by the window are always the large tables that seat 10. SO requesting a large table helps. We had window seats 3 times-- on the sensation when there were 20 of us ; on the Liberty when we booked as a group- then again on the Victory. the TA kept the group together. You can always get a window seat when eating in the buffet. Or head to the dining room for breakfast or lunch and request a window seat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
