Emerald Table for 10?

[mnmarkne]

Are there any tables for 10 people on the Emerald Princess? Our family group of 10 people has reservations in Apr 09 for early dining. We have 8 people linked together for an 8-person table. The other 2 people are not linked(different travel agent). The hope was other family members who are still "thinking about it", would make reservations and we'd get 2 8-person tables. Early dining is now waitlisted, so those latecoming family members will eat somewhere/some other time. I hate to choose which 2 won't be at the main table.

They will put 2 extra place setting on a table for 8...Its doable but will be very crowded...

When you board the ship on the first day, go and see the Maitre d'...(times to do that will be posted in the Patter in your cabin)....I am sure that he/she will do their utmost to accommodate you.

We were put at a table for ten in anytime dining on Emerald last year, so there must be some available.

Happy cruising.:)

Even though the other reservation is being handled by a different TA they can all still be linked. Get their booking number (it will be on their paper work from Princess) and give it to your TA. And, give your booking number to them and have them get their TA to include it on their booking. Many times we sail with people booked by multiple TAs and all the booking get linked up by simply exchanging the booking numbers. By linking them it will more than likely get the other two into your early seating and at a table for 10.

Thanks for the feedback. The Princess website has an 10-person table option, so had my TA request it. Don't know how many 10-person tables there are, but we'll see.
