DeLa Cruisers Posted November 6, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 6, 2006 My DH and I signed up for anytime dining b/c we are normally late eaters and we liked the flexibility of relaxing abit after coming back from a port, then going to dinner. Now, I've read a few things regarding dining times. Although we want "anytime", we still wanted to attend the traditional for the Formal evenings. My TA said that all we had to do was make a reservation for the formal night in the traditional restaurant. Is this true? I'm starting to worry that we won't be able to attend formal night b/c from what I saw on the Princess.com site, there was a "waiting list" for both early and late seating. Can anyone clarify this for me??? Has anyone else encountered this? Any help would be greatly appreciated:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
augie Posted November 6, 2006 #2 Share Posted November 6, 2006 No worries. Formal nights are observed in the anytime dining rooms the same as they are in the traditional, just not at the buffet, grill, or room service. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Tom O. Posted November 6, 2006 #3 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Augie is correct. Also, formal night is celebrated in the specialty, extra cost, restaurants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travelbug 2 Posted November 6, 2006 #4 Share Posted November 6, 2006 If you are an anytime diner you can not eat in the traditional dining room but as others have said, formal night is in the anytime dining rooms also. You will still be able to "dress up" for the occasion. Enjoy your cruise and have fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julia’s Journey’s Posted November 6, 2006 #5 Share Posted November 6, 2006 Formal is in the anytime dining restaurants and you will have a wonderful time in anytime - it is so much more flexible and the same menu as the traditional so you will get the loster etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donna5 Posted November 7, 2006 #6 Share Posted November 7, 2006 If you think the 2nd seating traditional, normally at 8:00 or 8:30 is fine with you then get on the waiting list for that. If you don't get it, you will default to anytime. Then only diff. besides a standing dinner time, is that in traditional they have the Baked Alaska Parade, Cherries jubilee(several headwaiters make it around the end of the dinning time, and also bananas foster. And you will have the same table mates everynight. The specialty rest. are the only ones that you need to make a reservation for(the extra fee ones). Unless your T.A. misunderstood you, I would start looking for another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
