Leisure Dining Notice With Documents

[Marie50]

Received my documents today with the 'Important Dining Notice".......did anyone else? They indicated that even with confirmed seating you could arrive either 1/2 hour early or 1/2 late. Can anyone explain???? Why is this better......why not just go when you are scheduled. Suppose someone is still sitting at your table when you arrive early??????

There are several existing threads about this. Here is one that should give you the information you need:

There has been lots of experimentation with "Leisure Dining" and "As You Wish" dining on some of HAL's ships. There have been a number of threads here on the topic. Click here for one recent one. It should explain what they're doing and how it works (or doesn't work, depending on everyone's experience.)
