How to make early seating?

[jim4yoli]

My family will be sailing on Carnival’s Pride next month, we have early seating, and I have a question about this. If Club Carnival does not open until 6pm and dinner starts at 5:45, how do we arrange to drop the kids off and not be late for dinner? Do any of you have experience with this or insight into how to handle it?

Thanks,

Yolanda

We always took the kids to dinner with us! Perhaps that is Carnival's intention by making the times like that. Kids have to eat too! :-)

We took the kids to Camp Carnival *after* dinner and then had the rest of the evening to ourselves, so we still had plenty of "adult time."

We had a similiar schedule issue on RCCL's Voyager last fall. We took the kids with us to dinner and ordered their food right away. After they ate, Adventure Ocean was open and we'd bring them up there, then return to the dining room for our entrees and dessert.

Hopefully this tip will work for you too! Enjoy your vacation!
