Well, darn it! I booked the first AYW cruise on Oosterdam in January and was told that there was no room in the traditional dining plan for me! :mad: I'm on the waitlist. Hopefully they're putting everyone on the wait list until things shake out.

This bums me out...I'm not an old fogey who insists on TRADITION but I love having 'my' waiter for the week! Dinner on a cruise ship is an EVENT for me, I dress for dinner every night and I enjoy being spoiled by the wait staff.

I did NCL once and really didn't like their flexible dining thing. If I want a regular restaurant experience, I can get that at home.

My TA is going to keep trying to get me confirmed for the traditional dining.

Just had to put in my 2 cents.

Oh the omelettes made to order in the Windjammer on RCI...maybe made with shrimp, mushrooms, herbs, cheese or spinach. Yum yum. Some of that good raisin bread. A bowl of stewed prunes and figs. A piece of lox.

...my passport.

Yes, really. On my first cruise, I got to the airport, handed the check in person my driver's license and plane ticket and she asked me for my passport. My jaw dropped. :eek: I called my roommate to bring it...she drove two hours there, and I missed my flight...had to get the next one (but that was okay since the cruise didn't leave until the next day).

I will NEVER live that one down!
