iflyfish Posted September 14, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 14, 2013 The upgrade fairy gave me a birthday gift today and generously moved us to a GS for our Med cruise on Splendour next month. We currently have early seating but are thinking we want to take advantage of the CL happy hour offerings ;) and might prefer MTD to be able to go to dinner around 7:00 instead of 6:00. Late seating is too late for us.Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AussieVisi2r Posted September 14, 2013 #4 Share Posted September 14, 2013 I would definitely change. Sometimes I am having too much fun in the CL to rush off to dinner at a set time. I enjoy the conversations too much!!! R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We like to go in for a couple of drinks before dinner, head down to dinner around 6:30ish then go back to the CL when we're done. A couple of times we we're having so much fun in the CL we never went to dinner until it closed. The beauty of MTD:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dz9yvr Posted September 14, 2013 #9 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Has anyone used the Concierge to set-up MTD dining? If so can the Concierge so arrange reservation times for MTD? It seems like the early reservation times are always booked-up prior ti boarding? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will contact the dining room staff to fit you in. We had to do this on our last cruise and it worked out great Sent from my SCH-I545 using Forums mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iflyfish Posted September 14, 2013 Author #12 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Wow, 10 replies in 8 hours: Cool Cruisers are the best! Thank you, experts, MTD it is. Look for pics when we get back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lionesss Posted September 14, 2013 #13 Share Posted September 14, 2013 11 if you count me. See on the other hand we like our 5:30 dinner, we have a cocktail or two in the CL eat dinner and then have an after dinner drink or two in the CL. But, whatever meets your needs and makes your cruise awesome is what you do. This works for us. Sea Ya Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Camlott Posted September 14, 2013 #14 Share Posted September 14, 2013 Why not skip the MDR altogether and enjoy dinner on your balcony since you can order from the full MDR menu in a suite? My vote would be MTD, so you can go when you feel like it. That way you don't have to worry that someone is waiting on you or feel rushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baseball fan Posted September 14, 2013 #15 Share Posted September 14, 2013 That is what we did last fall. We were upgraded (actually I caught a price drop) and we spent every evening in the CL. Some evenings we went to MTD. If we weren't very hungry (the food in the CL was great) we went to the buffet. You will love the GS.

iflyfish Posted September 16, 2013 Author #16 Share Posted September 16, 2013 Great suggestions, all, thank you for taking time to post - getting even more excited now! I'm afraid my first time cruiser companions may be spoiled forever by this upgrade to GS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
