em_in_murphy Posted January 21, 2007 #1 Share Posted January 21, 2007 We just booked a cruise on Splendour and remembered after that the RCI agent never asked me about dining choice. When I looked at my booking, it said second seating so I called to request Main. Of course, it's full so I'm waitlisted. Do I have anything to worry about? I have three kids traveling with me and they'll be half asleep by then! I love to eat in the dining room and don't want to have to do Windjammer every night because we can't get main seating.

DHADEN Posted January 21, 2007 #3 Share Posted January 21, 2007 If you are C&A member, my suggestion would be to call the Crown & Anchor Help Desk (not RCI Customer Service). Sometimes they can re-arrange. If this isn't possible, then try to get onboard early and go straight to the dining room. They will have a desk set up with Maitre 'D or an assistant who can set up what you want. Hope This Helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tmmull Posted January 22, 2007 #5 Share Posted January 22, 2007 We were also wait listed for Main Seating , After some phone calls and a trip to the Maitre 'D we still ate dinner during late seating!:( Some times you can get your dinning time changed and sometimes you can't.

dreamin2cruz Posted January 22, 2007 #6 Share Posted January 22, 2007 We booked our June '07 Mariner cruise back in Sept. and got waitlisted for the main dinner seating too. But after about a week it was changed. Our DS does not do well at the late dinner so it is very important that we eat early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
globetrotter7 Posted January 22, 2007 #7 Share Posted January 22, 2007 I would check with your TA or Royal Caribbean on a weekly basis. If they are unable to confirm your dining preference prior to your departure, a $20 bill to the maitre'd on the day of embarkation has always worked well for me. I'm on my 20th cruise and have always been able to obtain my preferred dining time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
