hondarr9 Posted June 14, 2011 #1 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Just locked in all our reservations for our cruise on the oasis. Does anyone know how the actual seating location is determined? I would assume that suite holders and diamond + would have the best seats but what determines it after that? Is it how early or late you reserve? Just curious.

I thought that seating was on a first come, first serve basis, regardless of level. We had planned on arriving early for the shows to get good seats. Hopefully someone who has already sailed on her will respond :). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merion_Mom Posted June 14, 2011 #3 Share Posted June 14, 2011 It is absolutely first come, first seated. They will open the doors about half an hour before show time, usually. At about ten minutes before, they allow people who don't have reservations to take any unused seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hondarr9 Posted June 14, 2011 Author #5 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Thank you Merion. I will take anything you say as fact. Dw said it was that way but I didn't know if it was different because you are pre-reserving. Should have known dw is always right :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langley Cruisers Posted June 14, 2011 #6 Share Posted June 14, 2011 You're merely reserving a place in the theater, your actual seat yet to be determined. If you book and you decide not to go, you don't have to cancel - just don't go, and someone in the standby line will gladly take your "seat" (someone in another thread has asked abut this).

Jimnbigd Posted June 14, 2011 #8 Share Posted June 14, 2011 ...At about ten minutes before, they allow people who don't have reservations to take any unused seats. Yeah, we know how that goes. You start to take a seat and someone says, "Oh we are saving this for someone." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ2sail Posted June 15, 2011 #9 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Each venue has a reserved section for Suite guests and Diamond plus cruisers. Other than that, you can sit where ever you wish. If the Suite/D+ sections don't fill up they are released the last 10 minutes or so for everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get there early, get good seats. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been there on Freedom, Mariner and Allure on our last three cruises. Rick and Deirdra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
