dburdan Posted April 30, 2013 #251 Share Posted April 30, 2013 thanks for posting this thread, Is there a wait with your time dinning, I know sometimes on other ships there could be a 20 min. wait, I look at a table for 4 people, thanks Mostly depends on when you go. If you guy right at 6, there will probably be a wait. 7:30, not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Food for YOU! :D - sounds like a glitch. Could you select Your Time/Anytime dining? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monster16 Posted April 30, 2013 #254 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I picked the anytime. But it said I was wait listed as it did for all times. I could stand to lose a few pounds, but hey Carnival determine that after I've gotten on the ship. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_duck Posted April 30, 2013 #255 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I picked the anytime. But it said I was wait listed as it did for all times. This to shall pass, sometime within the next 24 to 48 hours. See you on board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might want to give Carnival a call - sounds like a glitch with the web site - their web site is very buggy! They need some new developers!

Mike C Posted April 30, 2013 #257 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Mostly depends on when you go. If you guy right at 6, there will probably be a wait. 7:30, not so much. We had gone most evenings around six for a table for two and went right in. The one evening we went closer to 7 we had to wait around 10 minutes.

But we have to because we have kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monster16 Posted April 30, 2013 #259 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Have you done anytime before? I had assigned on my prior cruises, but figured a flexible time would be nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
big_duck Posted April 30, 2013 #260 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Have you done anytime before? I had assigned on my prior cruises, but figured a flexible time would be nice. Just so you know, as a general rule of thumb My Time fills up first followed by Early assigned then Late. Since you booked so late, unless you are Diamond your odds of getting My Time is pretty low. All is not lost though, if you don't get the assignment you want, go see the Maitre d' after you board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mandm97 Posted May 1, 2013 #262 Share Posted May 1, 2013 Have you done anytime before? I had assigned on my prior cruises, but figured a flexible time would be nice. Splendor was 1st Carnival cruise that we did anytime dining...we prob. won't be doing Anytime again on Carnival. It seems confusing and we usually had a wait time of 20-30mins. They gave you a beeper...you can sit in the Atrium and listen to live music. We've done something similar on NCL and just seemed a bit more organized.

barbsie8 Posted May 1, 2013 #263 Share Posted May 1, 2013 We've done Anytime Dining the last few cruises and we love it. 6 o'clock is too early for us and 8 is too late. We go around 7 and we've never had to wait too long. Barb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YumYumSweetiePie Posted May 1, 2013 #264 Share Posted May 1, 2013 We also had "My Time" dining on Splendor and never had to wait despite our varied dinner times. Party of two though. We always requested the booths up against the edge of the balcony so we could see everyone else in the dining room and the random dinner shows, was never a problem.

Dorene1 Posted May 2, 2013 #265 Share Posted May 2, 2013 I'm thrilled about this thread, we booked the cruise in December for New Years cruise. I can't wait Dorene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILNAN Posted May 5, 2013 #266 Share Posted May 5, 2013 My DW and I booked the May 17th cruise last week ( the price was too good to pass up) and it had wait listed for all 3 dinnings. So I picked the anytime because I like early and I figured there would be no hope of getting that this late so with the anytime we could go early. Well at any rate I just got a email from Carnival telling me they where able to do the anytime and I was confirmed. So I am sure you will get a email letting you know.

Cyber Kat Posted May 6, 2013 Author #267 Share Posted May 6, 2013 Okay - I've found some more bits of info from other threads and I thought I'd post them here so people don't have to go looking all over the place The shows currently on the Splendor are The Beat and Vroom. The piano player in the Piano Bar is Hailey. There is a charge for the cappuccino and espresso in the MDR. The room safes use key codes not cards.

Thanks Kat:) I think you can add a 3rd show, 'Fiesta Latina' to Vroom & The Beat. Don't forget about the Splendor's lucky coin. Deck 14, opposite to the water-slide entrance. Also, the saunas above cabin 1102, and in the gym, are free to use. I think I have about 4 pages of Splendor notes, LOL! From laundry room locations to ordering a banana split in the MDR from the children's desssert menu, hehehe..:) I like the interactive tv aspect. Being able to order room service, check my folio or take a peek at the MDR menu all on the tv in your stateroom. Very convenient & cool.. I can't verify if this is still active, but I think the specialty coffee bar (might still) offer a punch card, 5 coffees for $11 plus gratuity. Its not listed in the coffee bar menu. One has to ask for it. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reviews are so subjective depending on the reviewers preferences - and that's great if you happen to be looking for the same experience or you like/dislike the same kind of food. I wasn't sure if the Splendor had the TV's where you could order room service. Good to know because it's one of the things I wanted to do this time. We had the menu sneak peaks on the Miracle - love that! I hope that's true about the coffee bar because I will have some Cruise Cash Bar from my Carnival MC and the Carnival web site says you can use it in the coffee bar. Please - anyone who has cruised the Splendor out of NYC - we need more data for the info junkies! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
