Brian132 Posted June 14, 2009 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2009 I'm looking at possibly booking a solo trip on the Carnival/Fantasy out of New Orleans for September 19th. One of the options is to choose early dining, late dining, or "your time". My first thought would be 'why wouldn't everyone select "your time", and leave that totally flexible?' I've read that Carnival is good about seating singles together, and that the later you go (as a single), the more likely you are to avoid the families/kids crowd (obviously no offense to them! :)). Is there any advantage to choosing the "late dining" option, rather than "your time"? Thanks for any input! Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian132 Posted June 15, 2009 Author #2 Share Posted June 15, 2009 Looks like I may have found the answer to my question after all. http://www.carnival.com/CMS/Articles/yourchoice_dining.aspx Elsewhere, I've seen it discussed that "Your Time" is similar to going to a typical restaurant on land; you roll your dice and take your chances of a table being available at your desired time. "Your Time" also does not appear to give you the opportunity to eat with the same people every night (which to me is something I'm optimistically looking forward to, as I will be rolling solo).
