Smartcookie Posted November 8, 2006 #1 Share Posted November 8, 2006 Are they easy to come by? Has anyone NOT been able to get a table for 4? My husband can be coaxed into another cruise, but he absolutely refuses to dine at a large table. He just wants to eat with our family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've always gotten the size table we've asked for, but if do get put at a larger table, and the Maitre d' can't/won't change it, just get to the dining room early so that you four can take one end of the table, with him on the corner, and he can pretend that the other end of the table doesn't exist! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just booked the Noordam for 3-10-07 and we have a table for 4, Late seating confirmed. Not Waitlisted. This was made during the reservation process. I'll Keep my fingers crossed :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smartcookie Posted November 9, 2006 Author #5 Share Posted November 9, 2006 Thanks everyone, I was able to get ahold of a HAL brochure and it looks like there are a lot of tables for four, so I'm crossing my fingers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare xpcdoojk Posted November 10, 2006 #8 Share Posted November 10, 2006 I hope you don't get on the ship after a repo cruise. We got on the Rotterdam in Rio de Janeiro after a transatlantic sailing, and they didn't restock for 3 days until we got to Montevideo. I remember going to the wine sommolier and ordering a nice Napa Cab for our group of 6 the first night in the Pinnacle Grill and they brought my bottle, and after we finished it, I asked for another. They didn't have one. So, I asked for the list and they had a nice Silver Oak cab on the list for about $80 and I said, I would like that. Didn't have it. This continued for the next 2 days. In the main dining room after playing the game with our dining room sommolier, I just said bring us a red that is like such and such and a white like such and such. We survived. We were all thrilled including the sommolier when we finally had a wine list with actual wine on the ship! :D When do you leave and what is the itinerary? Does this mean you won't need the table for 4 after all? jc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
